After months of studying, I finally passed the Security+ on my first try. I first watched Professor Messer videos below to get familiar with it.
Got the Study Notes along with the practice questions. After that I got a bunch of books which I took the time to read through them all.
- CompTIA Security+ Get Certified Get Ahead: SY0-701 Study Guide
- CompTIA Security+ SY0-701 EXAM PREP: Clear, Concise, Simplified Jargon-Free Study Guide for Busy People | MOCK EXAMS, AUDIO, REAL-WORLD LABS, 30-DAY STUDY PLANNER, 1-ON-1 SUPPORT, CAREER ROADMAP Kindle Edition
- CompTIA Security+ Certification Kit: Exam SY0-701 (Sybex Study Guide) 7th Edition
My favorite is Gibson’s book, which is the most helpful for a straight-to-the-point study. Lastly, there is the Security+ SY0-701 Exam Cram Playlist. He has excellent notes and just tells you what you need to know to pass without the extra fluff. Prayer did play a big part and having the faith to take it. Even when not everything went the way I wanted to go, I still managed to pass on my first try. 🙂
