The Sec+ is my next step. I just passed Net+ this Monday. What exactly are you referring to when you say premium content? Maybe post a link for us? :D  I just bought Darryl Gibson's SY0-401 book.

Then review the correct answers and take note of the ones you got wrong.  Go back and read the chapter, paying special attention to shit you got wrong.  When you finish the chapter redo the practice test and see what you learned.  Once you finish the book take the big huge practice test at the end, and go over what you got wrong.  Make sure you memorize port numbers and shit.  \r\n\r\nAlso yes you will be marked down if you don't have it by the time your EPR is done. Actually you'll probably get marked down anyway because you missed the deadline.  \r\n\r\n\u0026gt;I don't think I'll ever pass it because I'm horrible at taking tests and I've never done any computer work in my life.\r\n\r\nYou passed A+, did you not?
