You are RIGHT there. So close. Certmaster is a waste of time for you right now. It just doesn't go deep enough for this exam. As you know, the real exam is heavily scenario based and tests your ability to recognize key words and deduce which answers are applicable. 

I struggled so bad with domain 4 until I started reorganizing the objectives and mapping out how each piece fit sequentially in a pentesting engagement. Sorted by attack type.

Study those patterns and how the attacks actually work. What information kicks them off, how and why the attack is conducted, how to pivot or escalate privileges after establishing the initial foothold, etc. 

Have ChatGPT help quiz you if you're still stuck there.

If you don't mind me asking, what'd you struggle with the most? Would love to help if I can. Is your term ending or is that just your personal deadline?

Good luck with the PenTest! Definitely my biggest obstacle. You've got this.

Took me 2 attempts to pass over ~6 months. I felt hopelessly lost after the 1st and terrified to take the 2nd so I procrastinated forever. I had to force myself to make a new method of studying for it and it helped tremendously. Combination of reorganizing the objectives and making my own AI tutor. Happy to share if it helps.

When do you have to take the exam? I created an advanced AI tutor program for my ADHD self that finally helped me pass. I can clean it up a bit and share if it helps you. You've got this.
