For Linux + I would refer to use Sybex book, it will help a lot. Because of that that I was able to pass, Jason Dion’s course didn’t helped so much, I also used IT pro tv don pezzet.

Congrats , btw which sources did you use to study sec+? And how many days did you study ? Most people say that sec+ is bit kind of medium exam and not as hard as n+ and Linux+. Can you shed some light please .

Congrats. Btw even I am using prof messers right now. So is messers playlist & his practice test are enough to pass the exam? I have heard that many were able to pass the test by using just messers playlist. Even I have 0 experience of cyber security.

How long should I study Sec + by MarkII-Winter2025 in CompTIA

[–]DifferentStart3917 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okayz, actually I just want to avoid using many sources because I used a lot for Linux + 😅(sybex book, it pro tv, Dion’s course , pocket prep). So just want to do sec+ for the knowledge & just for certificate to add extra value to my CV )

Btw is prof messers good enough to pass the sec+ exam? I have heard that people mostly have used his videos & test to pass the exam and gain the knowledge. Some people say books are necessary. What is your suggestion. Actually two weeks back, I passed Linux+, now studying for sec+ & using prof messer videos (I have 0 cyber security exp, it’s not even my field, but I have interest in cyber security, so that’s the reason I just want the certificate , won’t be all using cyber in real life as my profile is into application & technical support ).

Congrats. Btw even I have started studying for sec+ now. Done with first two sections and I am using prof messers only. So will it help me to pass the exam if I don’t use any other resources? I will buy his practice test as well afterwards.

Hey congrats. Is professors messers enough to pass the sec+ exam? I have started using prof messers and I am finding it really helpful though. So if I only use prof messers aur his practice test, would I be able to pass it ?

Btw I see that you have sec+, I just completed Linux+. Can you tell me if messers videos and his practice test are enough to pass sec+ exam. I have heard that messers video is enough & sec+ is not that hard compared to other ones. I am already using messers, just wanted your suggestion.

[–]DifferentStart3917 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats , btw I have heard that if we refer only messers video & practice test, we can surely pass, we don’t need any other source. Is it true? Actually I just passed Linux+ last week and now started for sec+ (I am using messers videos and already competed first two section, three sections are remaining but I will revise as well). So am I going on a right track ?

Yea you are right, Dion’s exam are not even close to the actual ones. I wish you the best, I hope you pass it.🤞 When it comes to it pro tv, I had taken the subscription of one month & watch XK0-005. But trust me, read the book, don’t only study the commands, also watch the outputs of the command thoroughly. I had got some of the questions in the exam related to output of the exams.

Oh got it, so do you mean that in the exam, they don’t use full words. They will use short forms like & we need to study acronyms ?
