I passed my Admin201 exam on 10/11/2024! Thanks FoF! I could not have done it without this study guide! And, the truth is, it’s more than a guide to help you pass an exam. It’s really about understanding the subject matter so that eventually, when I’m working AS an Admin, I’m ready to go. And, by default, that understanding helped me pass the exam and prove what I know.
