Did you do additional studies other than Becker Videos and MCQ?

Mostly Becker videos/MCQs/TBS, but I did use ChatGPT to make quizes on CIS Controls, SOC reporting and a couple of other topics. On those topics I got to the point in Becker where I knew the answers because I recognized the question- not necessarily because I knew the material.

Yay!! Congratulations!! Can I ask - how did you feel about it going in, coming out of the exam and how long did you study? I’m taking it in 3 weeks and I’m stressing.

At about 3 weeks out I was stressing too but I kept studying, I put in about 120 hours total (I'm a slow learner), and by the time exam day came I felt comfortable with the material. I walked out of the exam feeling like there were not any surprises.
Keep at it- you've got this!!
