For anyone wondering about the difficulty. It is more straightforward than you had expect. Definitely easier than some other CompTIA exams that like to trip you up with overly worded questions.
I had 3 PBQs and honestly they were fine. Nothing crazy. They lean into data security concepts and AI framework guides which can feel a little niche if you haven't reviewed them, but don't overthink it. Just read carefully and trust your prep.
Good luck to anyone currently studying. You've got this.
