Security+ Certification-How Long To Study and Pass
Hi
I'd like to get some ideas on how long it takes to study and pass the Security+ exam. I've been in IT for over 16 years, as an administrator, support person, UNIX admin, blah blah. So not a noob.
Your thoughts will be greatly appreciated.

It took me about two weeks to read the book in the evenings and do the practice exams at the end of each chapter, to prepare. So I'd say a week or two, maybe a month if you can only do it in your spare time. Full time studying, it can be done in under a week. It's not a difficult test.

Thanks!! Are there tasks you have to demonstrate during the exam?
No, unless they changed something recently, it's just multiple choice. You know your score right after completion.
