Just Passed the New Security+ SY0-601 20 Minutes Ago, My Experience 

Asked to disable Windows Firewall in order to take an exam about proper security measures. Oh, the irony.

I followed Andrew instructions, studied for three days straight. Took practice three times and passed Security+ in just three days! His material helped tremendously! Thanks Andrew!

Useful part starts at 9:00

Just passed the SY0-601 today! I'm very happy I found your course, and it was very easy to stay engaged while watching.

Just enrolled into your udemy class. Always been around IT and now I hope to pursue a career in Cyber Security. Your personality and practical explanations made it a very easy choice opposed to the other courses provided. Thank you for your passion.

Andy I just finished your course. Taking my test soon. You are so fun to watch and engaging! I truly enjoyed learning the material. Wish my luck!

I passed Sec + 601! With No prior IT experience. Mr Andrew I just want to say thank you! I read, watched videos of different instructors but your course on Udemy was what helped me the most. You broke it all down that I felt so comfortable and confident to ahead and take my exam. Thank you!😊

Hey, I bought your course on Udemy and took the exam 1 week later. I passed in just 1 week of intense studying, thanks to your material. I never post any comments on youtube but this time, i just want to say thank you. Your course is by far the most helpful compared to any other courses out there in Udemy. Others usually just modify their 501 material and tweak it a bit, and as a result, it didnt cover all of the exam objective. Yours is different.. it covers ALL of the exam objective and you also add several indistry best practices and techniques

Very helpful. Thank you. I hope to take my test in the next couple of weeks. I purchased your UDemy class and am starting it today. Thanks!

couldnt agree more about doing labs i recently passed my linux+ as my first IT cert and now looking in to sec+ its awesome i found this channel. ive just got ur course at udemy and so far being able to work with virtual machines is freaking awesome thanks mr andrew.

Thank you so much. I took mine November 2020 and didn't even know I was taking the 601. I failed but managed to get 720 points. I'm retaking it in March. And this video helps. The simulation was what killed me.

Hey Andew if i get your udemy course will i be able to pass the exam with no IT background?

Hello! I bought your course. Crammed 3 weeks worth of studying and passed Security+! Do you teach CySA+?

Great advice for the hands on, I passed N+ and A +, got them both done in the past 3-4months and been studying off and on for Sec+ and a bit of a break but he is right, you really need to deep dive into the subjects more than just reading it. Sec+ is not N+ and A+ it is a whole different beast from the studying I've been doing vs the big practice tests I've been taken.

Thanks for advice!

How long is the Time limit ? What’s the format of the exam are? Objective , commands and essay?

Extremely nervous to take it. Is the exam time crunching? Can you not like re-read questions often during it?

Great info Andrew! I'm currently in a security awareness role in my org and thinking this cert will help broaden my knowledge on security. How long do you think a reasonable amount to study/prepare before taking the exam for a complete newbie?

Can you tell which book to buy I'm taking your course now ?

Where is your couse material to buy?

He stated that he fell asleep while testing during the exam at 2:30AM? That is so funny as I am sure I wouldbe doing the same thing as he did, but I would probably fall asleep in the chair then probably fall off the chair and that is what would wake me up! Thank you for your honesty and hilarious moment!

Great video ! Will you be releasing content on any pentest certs ? ie. pentest+ , OSCP , etc. would be much appreciated !

I just recently took the 601 exam. Unfortunately I didn’t pass, but I got really close. 750 is passing I got 723. Considering I had 0 years of experience in IT and I’ve spent probably 2 or 3 months of studying here and there and taking a Security+ course a week before taking my exam I’d say that’s not too bad. After taking the exam I can kind of get a feel of the types of questions I’ll be asked and I definitely feel like this certification is obtainable with 0 years of IT experience.

Looking forward to your security+ course!

Do you have simulation notes?

Hey do you have a Network* course coming out on udemy? You really helped me get my A+ Cert. Cheers

You think i could set up a virtual machine and get enough practical experience to pass the test, or would i need do i need practice with actual vendor tools?

At home testing is so convenient but can be challenging 😄

Nice to here! How can I find this course on Udemy? What name should I search for?

I start watching on Udemy very good course 😊

my man, whats the difference between your course and jason dions syo 601 course? i purchased his course but im watching your video right now and dont mind using all resources i can

I passsed!!!! Thank you Andy, you are the GOAT (Greatest of all time)🐐. Way easier then reading a text book, take his course everyone :)

Is the test more of performance based questions or is it a mixture of both multiple choice questions as well?

what is the exam price(fees) in India?

2:45 AM?? what're you thinking! Just got your Sec+ course. I like the way you describe your exam experience, its echoes my experience with other CompTIA exams. Wording can be very particular.

I had a nightmare experience trying to take the exam at home. I will never do it again and went to a test center after, this was for my Net+ and I passed it! In short, I tried to launch the exam start and it told me it couldn't launch at this time, it was acting as if I was too early or too late to take it but that wasn't the case. So after 20-30 minutes trying to figure it out I contacted customer support trying to figure it out (At this point my exam start time has passed), I couldn't understand a single word this lady was saying, heavy accent and horrible mic, and after 20 minutes she hangs up on me out of frustration. Then I call back and talk with someone else for 45 minutes before they finally refunded me my voucher so I could re-schedule an exam. Total nightmare thinking I wasn't going to get refunded and I'll always just drive to a testing center from now on.

Thank you, Sir. you security+ course on Udemy is the best. Just passed.

I just took the 501 and how you are describing the 601 seems like they already started in the 501

If you get the 501 will you have to get the 601 ever or are you just good with the 501 forever?

I’m new to all this I have no it experience and I’m trying to learn this I really hope I can learn and pass with no knowledge lol

Your content is great

Do you need to study the objectives only, or do you need to focus on going beyond the objectives?

I just bought the course and it's 2022. I am taking the exam soon. Hope to pass in one take.

Thanks for sharing.

I take mine the 22nd, it'll be my first cert and I look forward to the exam.

You should start a certification for taking certifications. People would be silly not to hire you.

Not really related to the video, but more to some of the comments. What’s the point of “cramming” for a week or a few days or a month just to pass the test without actually knowing the content?

What’s the name of the Udemy course you made for the test

I Took The 601 Version, And I Passed With A 751 Score!!

Just passed the exam using your content.. thnku so much sir.

someone have the study guide?

He said "Panderma" ha ha - way to beat the algorithm!!!

Just Started my studies for the exam, Have all the material will take it in end of April

OK. Bought the course. Let's see what happens.

my exam is in 2 days time SY0-601

skip to 8:40 thats where the video actually starts

Interesting.😃

Hi Professor.. Can you pls tell me how can one analyze encrypted traffic to find malicious activities? Pls put a comment or make a video on it.

Don’t you just hate when people take like 10 minutes just to get to the point! My god!

I need to take this only because it is a requirement. Funny thing is , the other coworkers who have it don’t even use 85% of the material they teach. My feelings, CompTIA is BS’ing the government and the industry.

Are you on Udemy?

Now im nervous i will take this exam on saturday😭

“PandeRmic” 😂 my new word 😎
