Have the trifecta and have been in IT for over a year and I still watch these videos. Never stop learning, and try not to forget what you've learned!! Thanks Pro Messer

[@velse9869]

I haven’t had the chance to show my gratitude to Professor Messer. Although I failed the 501 by a question, I did manage to get a job at a Support Center for a health care company back in April. Soon I’ll take my shot at the 601. Thank you Professor Messer. Now that I know what this field entails I am even more grateful for all the dedication you put into this community you’ve created.

I use allot of different material to study but near the 3-4 week mark before my exams I start watching your videos on work commutes and in my study sessions. I learn so much from your videos and I’m so appreciative of what you do!

Hey all, when studying how many hours a day would you commit to ( either online or the book ) to prep for the exam

[@persistent25u]

Thank you Professor Messer

Are the Exam vouchers still valid? Looking to test soon and I know the prices displayed are a tad lower than what the exam cost currently.

[@professormesser]

Vouchers on my site are available for all CompTIA exams. The vouchers are valid and the discounted pricing is correct.

how come when you choose for example to format a drive , you say it only erases the index but the size of the drive goes down. So if it only erased the index , how is it still on the drive yet the drive shows it as erased with no size?

[@professormesser]

Once you delete the index, the drive appears empty to the operating system. The size and capacity of the drive does not change.
