Bro just use this for Security+ practice (I built it while failing practice exams)

Okay so I was scoring 60% on practice exams and getting genuinely frustrated because every free resource either had wrong answers, wanted my email, or paywalled me after 5 questions.

So instead of studying I did what any reasonable IT student would do and spent a week building my own quiz site.

studypassplus.com

Here is what it actually does:

245 original SY0-701 practice questions covering all five exam domains

When you get something wrong it gives you an AI explanation of why the correct answer is right, not just "the answer is C"

Exam mode with a real 90 minute timer so you stop pretending you have unlimited time

Missed questions mode so you stop redoing questions you already know and actually fix your weak spots

No account, no email, just open and go

I went from 60% to consistently hitting 85%+ using my own site which is either a great sign or I just memorized my own questions. Either way I feel way better about my exam.

What domains are you struggling with? Genuinely curious what to add next.

Built a free Security+ SY0-701 practice quiz real Messer questions, no signup

studypassplus.com

Hey everyone. I've been studying for my own Security+ exam while finishing my IT degree and kept running into the same problem, free practice questions online are either wrong, paywalled, or covered in ads.

So I built my own. It's free, no account needed, no email gate.

Professor Messer's practice exam book is $20 on his site. This is the same questions but interactive, with instant feedback and missed question tracking, for $9.99 one time.

What's on the site:

245 practice questions pulled directly from Professor Messer's SY0-701 practice exams across all three full exam sets

Instant feedback on every answer so you know immediately why you were wrong

Missed questions mode that drills only the concepts you keep getting wrong instead of making you redo everything

Score tracking so you can see your progress across domains

First 25 questions are completely free with no signup. Full question bank is $9.99 one time if you want everything.

Not affiliated with CompTIA or Professor Messer. Questions are sourced from his published practice exam book which is the most widely recommended paid resource in this sub.

What I'm looking for: does the difficulty feel realistic compared to the actual exam? What domains need more questions? What would make it more useful for your studying?
