    I passed my 701 literally at 1:30am on 5/13/24, I took it at home. I thought I would fail bc I kept scoring high 70s, sometimes mid 60s, and only got 85 once on the practice exams. I am so grateful to God that I passed, bc I prayed so much before , and during the exam to pass & I did. Now moving on to the next difficult projects & landing a remote job.

      research how to study and retain information. a couple videos from youtube explained the best methods to study. This will help you feel more confident when studying and that your studying isn't in vain.

      Take small bites of the elephant. I took the Sec+ "101 Cert for Life" exam back in 2007 and passed. That test was a lot easier since network security wasnt the advanced version of what Cyber Security is today. I took the 701 recently. Study a little bit and start taking those practice exams. Focus on those weak areas and have a running notes sheet (in Word or hand written, if you wish).

      @TerryCochran-jb6jx I took it with no studying and failed with a 640. I plan on retaking it sometime in January. But compared to security, it is a bit harder, imo.you gatto know your stuff for the network. For security, it's a lot of common sense and knowing different attacks.

    I passed some time ago (701), and in my experience, the actual exam is easier than the practice tests suggest. I completed all of CertMaster's practice questions and took the practice exam twice (I didn't score well on Certmaster material either, so don't get discouraged). I also skimmed their Self-Paced Study Guide. Additionally, I went through all of Professor Messer's notes and took his three practice exams twice.

    Compass tests are good to practice and knowledge but comptia is always harder ,the way how they ask questions like if they want you to fail.
    Main thing as advice study to learn and and get knowledge don't study just to pass .
    The more you understand the easier the test .
    As far as pbqs they are always crappy lol

      They are DIFFERENT to an extent. If you study the 601, don’t think that you’ll be set for the 701. They have some overlapping similarities, but they both have different sections that the other dosent cover. Please study the specific exam you’ll be taking!
