Smile Passed the SY0-201:)

I recently passed the SY0-201, if it can help, the study material I used was Sybex's Sec+ Deluxe Study Guide & practice exams @ Transcender.

I would say that only 50% to 60% of the material I studied was in the exam.
The questions were more focused on control models, security policies/procedures & crypto and less or not at all on backup procedures, RAID & physical security.

Overall, it's an easy exam if you already familiar with computer security terminology and concepts.

Good luck to those taking the exam
