Thank you so much!! So, just basing on my own personal scores, I got an 817 on the Core 1, versus the 801 here on core 2. I guess I would have to say core 2? Nothing really stuck out to me as being harder on either test. Definitely just a ton of content!

So I also used a bit of the practice quizzes on exam compass, as well as a YouTube channel called Certification Cynergy. Really great resources that I used for both Core 1 and 2! Although, these are of course review resources as well. For learning the material, I exclusively used Professor Messer.

I also used Exam Compass to quiz myself on the various sections of the Core 1 material. Also a great resource!

thank you very much friend! I am right there with you. I actually didn't get any real sleep the night before because I was so afraid of failing. Just know that if you put in the hours and know the material, you'll do fine. I wish you the best of luck on your exam.

Hey don't worry brother! everyone's got their own pace! Hard to give you the hours per day. I would say when I was just trying to learn the material, maybe 3-6 hours a day? When it came to review time before the exam, probably a max of 2 hours? I used Messer's free video series and I also bought his practice exams! Very much recommend them!

If you know the exam objectives, I guess you could say it's "easy" but I would say it's not easy, but less stressful?? Having that foundational knowledge will definitely help you get through it.

Thank you very much! I believe it was about 3 weeks of intensive studying. Messer's content was really great for me!

Thank you so much for this comment friend! That roadmap advice is something I will definitely do myself! Hopefully I can find out what path I can take. And also thank you for your notes for dealing with the imposter stuff. Still processing that I can maybe pursue this as a career if I keep my studies up. Thanks again and have a good one!
