Good to hear! I was told they were being sent out. Will keep an eye out for mine!

Nicely done!

Be ready for some fairly long questions with a lot of detail, lol. Good luck!

Studying for AWS Sec now, prepping for a series with ITProTV later this year. Have you taken any of the other AWS Specialty certs?

Congrats, that's awesome! I felt the same way coming out of it, that it was a lot of educated guesses. I guess we both be ed'cated enuf. ?

I got my A+ vouchers around that same time. Still patiently waiting on Linux+ though (passed the Project+ beta so didn't need that one).

Totally agree--it was unnecessary added complexity to not know how much time to invest in that question. If we can't return to it like we can with PBQs, I would much rather the VM question be placed at the end. But they didn't ask me. :ROFLMAO: Still, turns out I had way more time than I...

Similar experience here. I finished with lots of time left over, and used much of that time to review the questions. Changed several of my answers and ended up passing.

When I read the instructions just before starting the exam, it warned that you would not be able to reset or skip the VM question. This information is given on the last screen before the timer starts, so if this is your first time taking an exam with a VM question, it might be worth investing a...

I love your attitude! You'll know better how to study for the next go-around.

I elaborated a bit more in another post: ... had some questions on specific tools listed here and more general Linux questions where you need a basic understanding of how Linux works behind the scenes and how to secure it. The VM was also Linux, and I was given a task related to an intrusion on...

Thank you

For CASP+ exam, you don't have the option of resetting the VM. And you can't skip the question and come back. Once you get to that question, you have to work through it before moving on, and no starting over. It did say the exam clock was paused while the environment was created, but it didn't...

For which exam? ETA: Oh sorry, just noticed this was in the Security+ forum specifically. I took Security+ this past summer, I think, and was able to review questions. I took the CASP+ today and could review all questions except the one presented in the virtualized environment. If this policy...

I happened to catch that little tidbit about the virtual environment while clicking through the instruction screens at the beginning before the test. Normally I just click through those without even looking at them anymore, since I've taken CompTIA exams for so many years. But this one screen...

Passed the CASP+ today. I fully expected to fail after not having sufficient time to study. I probably got all the easy questions. :ROFLMAO: If you're studying to finish this up before the voucher expires, definitely focus on Linux stuff, and know those acronyms inside and out. It was also...

Glad I'm not the only one waiting. ;) Not to put any pressure on Stephen and crew...I can wait patiently!

Congrats, that's a great score!

That's an interesting analysis of the beta. I didn't take the beta for this new version (so many certs, so little time), but I felt the current version was a tad easier than the latest Security+. I don't know, maybe I was just better prepared for CySA+, although I went in convinced I was going...

That's good to hear--this one is still on my to-do list. Congrats on passing!
