FAQ

I found the questions really difficult because they are so granular in detail, but this is exactly what is needed to understand what it means to be a qualified SysOps Administrator. Though it's difficult, it's absolutely possible but only with a good deal of recapitulation throughout the practice tests. Great to work through, I'll go over the practice tests maybe one or two more times and take the official exam :)
