Passed My Security+ Exam After 2 Failed Attempts

Hi everyone, I passed my Security+ exam this past week after 2 failed attempts. My first attempt, a 709. My second attempt, a 711. My final attempt, a 779. These attempts were made across the span of 2 years. Failing was part of the process to get me here today. Not an ideal storybook start, but one I can't harp on enough about. If you want it bad enough, you'll make it happen by any means necessary. Thank God.

To add value: I took a month to restudy and used Jason Dion's Security+ course and practice exams. I also used CyberKraft's PBQ playlist on YouTube, Cyber James' practice questions on YouTube, and watched dozens of Symone's videos to keep the momentum going. PocketPrep was helpful for quick "question of the day" reviews. No question is going to be exactly like what you'll face on the exam, but understanding the concepts is key so you can go through a process of elimination when answering.

I know the work here isn't complete, but this is a step in the right direction. I'm on the roadmap toward IAM.

At the end of the day, just remember you've got this.

Have a great weekend!
