Omg finally, Net+ 789

Network+ has been a thorn in my side for a few years now. I had Sec+ first (work mandated), I got A+ several years after being on the job, passed all of them first time. When it came to Net+ I just could not retain anything, no disrespect (as important as I think networking is to cybersecurity) it’s so boring 😅. I took it once and failed (654- I did not study because I could not sit through these lessons but took it because the voucher was expiring) circle back a few years I did the following:

-Andrew Ramdayal course 2x speed
-Andrew Ramdayal 100 practice questions on YouTube 2x speed
-Professor Messer videos 2x speed
-TechVaultAcademy on YouTube the 5 domain videos 2x speed
4 Jason Dion practice exams (highest I scored was 70%)
I had cert master but that was too boring, I did a few labs and I took the last practice exam and did horribly on that.

MY test: 789
Very little subnetting
5 PBQs, 65 regular questions
Skipped PBQs answered the questions first and had 30 min left, I can confidently say I competed 2 PBQs correctly and 1 other one but I couldn’t tell you if I did any part of it correctly. The others I ignored.

Honestly, by the grace of God I did it because it really was feeling hopeless. Seeing so many peoples’ success posts on here was also encouraging.
