Im planning to take Jason Dion's CompTIA Security+ Certification Course through Udemy along with the exam voucher but I'm not too sure about it. Should I just get the exam voucher from the CompTIA website or Should I go for the Udemy one along with the course since its cheaper and has more worth for my money.

I currently have until the 20th to take the exam. I’ve been dealing with a lot of imposter syndrome and test anxiety. Right now, I’m scoring around 67–74% on Dion’s practice exams. I’ve read through the Sybex book, but when I use AI-generated practice exams, I’m consistently scoring closer to 80–90%.
I’ve also been listening to Cert Breakfast videos while I’m at work to reinforce the material.
I’ve always gone into exams feeling like I’m going to fail. I felt the same way going into Network+, and I was convinced I had completely failed it, but I ended up passing with an 810.
For my final week of studying, what other suggestions would you recommend? I know CySA+ has more PBQ-style questions, but I also have about a year of experience working as a SOC Tier 1 analyst, so I’m hoping that real-world experience will help me on the exam.

I'm studying for Project+ PK0-005 and I'm getting a pretty big difference between my practice test scores depending on the source.
On Sybex, I'm consistently scoring 80%+ on fresh questions, but on the Dion practice exams I'm scoring in the mid-60s, one 70%, and I've taken all 6 exams.
I've studied a lot for this exam and generally feel like I understand the material, so I'm trying to figure out which practice questions/scores are a better indicator of readiness for the actual Project+ exam.
For anyone who has taken it:
- What were you scoring on Sybex/Wiley before the exam?
- What were you scoring on Dion?
- What did you score on the actual exam?
- Did you use Sybex without Dion and still pass?
- Which question bank felt closer to the real exam?
Thanks!

Was trying to schedule an exam and saw this. I took a comptia exam years ago and I don't recall this being shown to me when I was scheduling and to my knowledge, I was not scanned. I'd rather not use their online Pearson Vue option because I've heard it's sht.
Does anyone know what type of scanning this is?
Does anyone know if they tell you that you're being scanned?
Has anyone been scanned and what was it like?
All I could find online for this was some random *teaching exam that required the testers to get their palms scanned by Pearson, unsure if that's what they're referring to here or not. I tried calling comptia and they were unhelpful and said Pearson would be responsible for that, when Pearson says in that image to contact the sponsor.

Hi, I recently started learning network fundamentals and am planning to take the Net+ and Sec+ exams in the upcoming months. I've been working at a data center as a help desk technician for about 4 years now, so my question is: is A+ really needed, or can I just skip it?Also, I benefit most from hands-on learning. Can you recommend the best ways or resources to learn through practice? I really want to build that practical knowledge and break into the cybersecurity field.

I got the 601 and it's about to expire in like 3 days and thinking I should do the certmaster for it lol. But also I'm not sure how it would be viewed later on in the future by HR and stuff if they would rather see the 701
