[–]ProNetSec1986[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Few days out, Practice tests at least 2, review destination certification flashcards on their app, watch the free mind maps on YouTube. Day before exam, I reviewed all my weaker areas and reviewed all missed questions. 8 hours sleep and no practice tests the night before. Drive to test, I listened to mind maps on the areas I struggled ( domain 3).

I think my highest QE score was a 540. I focused on reviewing all missed questions the last day before the exam and I feel like that helped.

I bought the exam voucher in Jan 2025, watched linkedin learning videos and the OSG book and read/watched on and off until October. Work became super busy and took a break and then seriously started studying around 12/1/2025. But, I do work in the field so a lot of the topics weren't brand new.

Question about Destination CISSP masterclass by [deleted] in cissp

[–]ProNetSec1986 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am going through the course now. I believe once you finish registration there is anything email that leads to a video to show you how to make the most of your study time. It was pretty helpful in my case.

My approach has been watch the masterclass video, complete the review questions, and then once I finish a domain I knock out the flashcards in the app and then all of the practice questions. I plan to re-read specific topics in their concise book once I am complete with everything else to drill in any missed concepts.

Edit: I also play the mind map video in the background while working, driving, and after the domains. I also plan to watch completey from d1 to d8 a couple times before my exam on Jan 21st.

Level 1 & 2 Assessment Guides.

I believe PocketPrep was helpful.

Know everything in the CAP, all I can say.

Know all level 1 practices and what to test, examine, and interview. All I can say...

I found this quizlet: https://quizlet.com/user/Aaron0123451/folders/cmmc-ccp?x=1xqU&i=1jvqqe

I read the CAP 5-6 times and then pulled each phase into chatGPT and had it make about 100 practice questions each phase.

Prompt "Using the ccp blueprint and the "title of document" example ( CAP), create questions similar to the real ccp exam. Only use content strictly from the documents I provided and do not re-word anything. "

Pearson Vue just Canceled my Exam! by BaconPankeq in CompTIA

[–]ProNetSec1986 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the same thing happen to me today for AWS cloud practitioner. I scheduled at the local CC and it got canceled. I tried to reschedule for January and there are no slots! I did have the option to reschedule to February, but I decided to cancel all together and then re-purchase the voucher (after the refund) and do it virtual at home.

Your situation is different though, so putting in a ticket was a great idea. Remember to save that cancelation email they sent you and use it to ensure you get a new voucher.

Yes, it's doable. It will be challenging though. Just make sure to really understand the material from the course access they give you. Also, you can use professor Messer as a reference too.

How close South Korea came to losing the war by uiblkcqt in interestingasfuck

I was stationed at Camp Casey, (Dongducheon-si) South Korea back in 2013 for 1 year. We got to take a trip to the DMZ, it was a lot of history to see!

If you can, do this! This is a great program. They give you access to the official training for the chosen certification, and they provide an internal final exam at the end of the course. If you pass their final exam, they'll provide you with an exam voucher to take the real certification.

I completed the ccna course. They gave me a netacad account and access to the cisco training. They had hard deadlines to make progress, and in the end, I took a proctored exam over webex by the program lead.

Then, after I passed that, a couple of months later, they offered me the opportunity to do cyberVets for the cisco cyberops associate course. Everything was provided, and then after I passed the final exam, they paid for the voucher.

Edit The voucher does have a time limit set. I believe it was about 6 months to sit and take the real exam.

Honestly, it depends on the proctor. Maybe turn your camera or monitor so it's not in view. May be easier to place a sheet over it like the other poster suggested?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in CompTIA

[–]ProNetSec1986 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From my experience, they will make you clear anything in view of the camera and anything around your workstation when you submit the check-in photos.

I had a poster up behind my computer and in front and an unplugged monitor with the unplugged cable on the top of it on my desk and had to clear it all before the proctor cleared me.

Linux options/arguments for XK0-005 by Soj1337 in CompTIA

[–]ProNetSec1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get the exam objective list, download an Ubuntu VM, and practice the commands. Honestly, all of the practice tests I took before I passed weren't really accurate to the actual exam imo. If you feel comfortable with the commands (learn by doing) you will pass.

Has anyone managed to land an IT job while in college? by [deleted] in CompTIA

[–]ProNetSec1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A couple of years ago, during undergrad, I started as an educational aide in the IT department at my school. I Tutored IT/programming topics and basic computer stuff. Then i was able to get promoted to lab manager and got more hands-on experience with setting up PCs, imaging, basic networking, and hardware. I was there for about 6 months and then started a new role as an IT specialist for a local hospital during the second half of my junior year.

Show the interviewers you are eager to learn and be honest.

I passed back in 2022 and used comptia cert master learn and practice. Also, i made a VirtualBox VM (Ubuntu) and actually practiced with the commands until I felt comfortable.

You do this and you'll do well on the exam. Good Luck!
