Some of the questions have topics that arent explained in the CompTia study guide or Darril Gibsons book. Such as Software Testing Validation...the question mentions blackbox testing, sandox testing etc....and asked what is the developer doing? Why couldnt the answer just be Testing? instead the answer was 'Validation'. That didnt make sense to me. That terminology is not in any guide i have read. and also the question regarding CPU load where it was almost maxed and caused degradation in performance....the answer was 'memory leak" where nowhere in the question memory was mentioned, but "resource exhaustion" was one of the answer choices. I failed with a 72 which is not awful, but I feel some of the questions i missed were because of the question not having enough information

Passed on the first try. Found these practice tests very helpful. Learning from multiple sources is always the best way to go about learning.

By Dana Cook on 6/6/2023

Unfortunately, I didn't find these tests overly helpful. There were grammatical errors, repeat multiple choice answers assigned to one question, some answers not fully explained, etc. I was looking for more consistency and knowledge-gain.

By Etienne Moreau on 5/17/2023

Some questions have duplicate answers, but other than that, this is a very solid test. I got a slap in the face when I first tried those exams, but it was necessary and surely got me in the right mindset for the exam.

By Chris Hansen on 4/21/2023

Definitely helped me pass my SYS-601 first try.

By Jason Welton on 1/1/2023

Couple of questions in Test 2 have duplicate answers, of course I chose the one of the two duplicates that resulted in a wrong answer although it was correct.

By Israel zamorano on 11/8/2022

Highly recommend these practice test. they helped me tremendously in preparing me for the CompTIA test.

By Stephane on 11/2/2021

One of the best practice questions out there. I had to review this a day to my exams after reading the study guide and also watching Jason’s videos. Please use better sources, wikipedia sources aren’t reliable. Thank you.

By Jason Shaw on 8/27/2021

Just passed my Security+ with 784/900! I tried a lot of good practice tests, but these were the most like the actual test I just took.
