"was skeptical of paying for exam prep but cmssexam.com actually broke down the design domain in a way that made sense, especially the dynamic path selection stuff. i definately would have failed without going through their mock exams twice, the second time i caught alot of mistakes i didnt even know i was making."

"the mistake review after each practice set is what did it for me. kept missing the same 802.1x and NAC questions until i actually understood why, not just memorized the answer. quiet relief passing honestly, wasnt expecting to."
