Honestly, I didn't use any study materials to pass the exam for either of the two versions I passed.

I already had Security+, CySA+, and PenTest+. If you have those three, you're almost ready for it at that point.

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to check if anyone has received their exam voucher after attending all six sessions of the CompTIA CIN TTT Series: SecAI+?

I have not.

personally, I beilieve more is needed. The material assumes a fundamental knowledge of security concepts and domain knowledge.

I've got 25 years IT experience and over 16 specializing in security, so I'm not coming into this completely ignorant. But in taking the unit quizzes and practice exam in CertMaster, the questions seem way different than the material I've been studying the last couple months. I'm also going through the TTT recordings now but that seems in line with the CM material.
Are the exercises relevant for the test? Also, is there a better alternative for learning what I need to pass the exam?
Thanks in advance!

Stephen,

Does CompTIA have Cyber/IT AG on their radar? Will they be developing training and/or a certification for those that are supporting SmartFarming? I know we have certs that will address some of the components that make up part of the new world of SmartFarming.

Have you seen the Modern Classroom Certified Instructor [MCCT] from Logical Operations? It is a good straight-forward review of instruction techniques. It is a fast and affordable instructional "credential".

I used to work for a subsidiary of Logical Operations/CertNexus and was one of the first people with the MCCT. Literally, you could study for a single day and pass it the same day. It's an online, unproctored exam that you can take over and over until you pass.

Hi Everyone! Just a reminder, as you recall from the series, we mentioned that there will be a two week grace period after the last live session for anyone who needed to catch up on missed sessions. That period ended this week and I have pulled the attendance records from ON24 and sent it to the Data team for processing. Based on previous offerings it will take a couple more weeks for the list to be finalized, vouchers ordered and distribution to begin. Thank you for your understanding and patience.

I will post an update in this thread as soon as I hear a date for the vouchers to go out.

Thank you. I was also wondering. I will look forward to your update.

I want to settle this once and for all. How does CompTIA score their exams?

My question is this: Does anyone have corroborating evidence that clearly shows CompTIA publicly announcing how they score their exams?

I don't think anyone is going to find it because CompTIA isn't going to release that information. To be honest, I believe any of those 'de-facto' answers are speculative at best. Only thing I can suggest is if someone who had that information was let go last year during the great buyout purge - although I would expect that those people would have some NDA's to sign.

So, I think I'm with Greg on this one - there's no way to definitively know, which means there may be trainers/authors/instructors/etc out there overstating things - which I have also observed.

Every exam has a handful of PBQs, while the overwhelming majority of questions are multiple-choice. Most exams have a maximum of 90 questions, but could have fewer. All exams are on a 100-900 scale, with the exception of a few exams that are pass/fail only.

A well-known trainer posted this on another forum:

I have no idea where he got this information. I taught classes FOR COMPTIA and never once did they mention how they scored their exams. I helped write exam questions and never once did they mention how they scored their exams.

My question is this: Does anyone have corroborating evidence that clearly shows CompTIA publicly announcing how they score their exams?

I really don't know.

I really would be interested to get hints on how questions are scored. For example, the different weights for PBQs vs Lab based Questions, Vs Multiple Choice

Questions have different weighting. CompTIA has never released score values from questions but it is estimated that a multiple choice question (MCQ) is about 9 points, multi-select questions (MSQs) are worth 9 points X however many correct answers there are to select and PBQs run around 90 points (partial credit can be earned).
