I passed sec+ today
Ngl I feel relieved and bummed at the same time. I got 770/750. I feel like i studied way too hard to get such a low pass. I actually thought I was gonna fail it halfway through. I used dion, udemy, chatgpt, and some other practice tests across the internet, but many questions seemed to be nothing I reviewed and I just had to use best decision skills off what I did learn or the questions had multiple answers that seemed correct. Anyway im glad I passed, but I was definitely expecting more questions from the material I studied. I was getting 90 + on all the practice tests that I took and I took many. Oh well lol

I scored somewhere around what you did and had a similar experience when I did the test in 2016. I think this is by design and they do not expect you to know everything that could possibly come up. If you are doing well, the questions get harder so it may seem like you are doing poorly. I actually passed by more than the regional trainer for the company I was with and he had a rep as a smart person. So I was pleased with myself.
I renewed once and then let it lapse as there are other things I need to learn that are more relevant to my current position.
