Prepping for Sec+

---

So I'm near the end of the Sec+ course on ITPro (great work on the videos Wes, Dan and Adam) and I purchased my voucher from CompTIA which includes the Certmaster resources.

I am finding the questions on the Certmaster practice tests and the PBQs a little difficult though. The PBQs don't seem to make an awful lot of sense and sometimes the wording of the multiple choice questions seem like they were either just plain rushed or put through multiple levels of Google translate and I don't seem to be even close to a passing score.
Does anyone know how close to the real thing Certmaster is? I would have assumed that since it came from CompTIA it would be pretty close?

I feel like I need to go back and restart the course again...

I really do not think it is that close believe it or not. Here is why I say that....I have taken countless CompTIA exams throughout the years and I cannot ever remember grammar or unclear phrasing in any of the questions on those exams.

Beyond the occasional "gee - I wonder what answer THEY think is correct here...." the actual exams are very "tight".

Should you have ANY specific content questions for us - we are standing by.

Thanks. I've been looking at other resources, including the CyberVista questions here on ITProTV and the questions are all much clearer. The only thing that really concerned me is because the CertMaster exams came bundled with my voucher from CompTIA I assumed they must be the closest to the real thing.

I'll keep my head up and get cracking on that exam...

OK so I passed this morning with an 810.

The CertMaster questions are so much harder than the real thing, the questions on ITProTV \ Kaplan are much better in case anyone asks.

Congratulations @James-Todd great job, and thank you for the feedback!
