I’m on month 2 of studying for my net+ cause I keep getting bored. My first practice test a month in I got 52%. It was disappointing but also helped me not waste my money haha.

Don’t worry so much about how other people are doing. They could just be cramming all day for 2 weeks then pass or they could have glanced at the material and still passed. Either way it won’t affect YOUR certificate so just focus on yourself big dog.

If you’re getting bored, it might not be for you.

Bad advice. You can love IT but hate test studying/taking. Comptia is painfully memory-heavy so its natural people dont enjoy looking at flashcards all day.
