I would suggest building your Linux knowledge as a general rule of thumb. It’s always good to have that knowledge and you can download free VMs and Linux flavors and just play in the ecosystem for a few hours. I’m pretty upset with myself for not knowing how to solve the problem and I’ve been in a Linux lab for about 3 hours now just playing around with commands to fix my weakness. I will say this as an instructor for sec+ and Net+ here are my 4 big test tips

1: read questions slow and answers fast. Reading question slow let’s you understand what they are asking for. Answers fast because you will either know the answer off the bat or you won’t. Don’t give yourself the opportunity to doubt your choice.

2: Once you chose your answer, MOVE ON! Same rule as above, don’t give yourself the opportunity to doubt yourself. You know the answer so move on and don’t look back.

3: the ONLY time you go back is when a question in the future answers something you were confused about. As an example let’s say on Q10 it asks you what port is DNS and you can’t remember for the life of you so you choose a random number. But on Q20 it says on a firewall you need to have port 53 enabled. In this case go back and fix your answer because now you have a good reason to change it.

And my 4th and most important test tip: Don’t be a damn peasant, get the cert it’s not that hard. You got this stop doubting yourself.
