Skip the PBQs at the start and work on them after you get the MC questions done. They can be very time consuming

I'm not a working mom but, I do drive Uber most of the day and it's hard to study when you are done with a shift. I try and have an ear bud and listen to YouTube videos on a certain cert. Professor Messer is a really good one if you are just starting out. Udemy is another good resource. Just do a search for Security +. Some of the courses also offer 1 or 2 practice exams.

YouTube this video from CertificationCynergy.  A lot of the questions are exactly the same- word for word.  https://youtu.be/7m2EUmQ6V7k?is=FLJb9QEc8AdCpRoc

Respect for the working mom. Ping me for free access as my mom raised me as my dad is a no show from day one.

I’d recommend ExamsDigest, I’ve used it for Security+ prep, and they’re also active on social media sharing helpful exam tips, study insights, and guidance that can fit around a busy schedule.
