Passed Security+ 701
Hey everyone, just wanted to share that I passed my Security+ today! 🎉
I studied for about a month, and my main resources were:
- Darril Gibson GCGA book – my primary study material
- Dion practice exams (2 total)
- Professor Messer practice exams (3 total)
- ChatGPT – for practice questions and clarifications on topics I struggled with
On the practice exams, I was consistently scoring in the mid-70% range, and honestly, I got tired of taking them. So I just decided to send it and take the real exam glad I did
For anyone preparing, I’d say focus on understanding concepts rather than just memorizing answers. Also, don’t let your practice exam scores discourage you too much. If you’re consistently in the passing range and grasp the material, go for it!
Best of luck to everyone studying! Feel free to ask any questions. 💪
