CompTIA Cyber Security Analyst (Cy SA+): questions candidates ask
How long do you get per question in CS0-003?
The CompTIA guide allows 165 minutes for up to 85 questions, which works out at roughly 1.9 minutes a question if you answer at an even pace. Timed practice matters more on this one than on an untimed take-home paper.
How does CS0-003 differ from the other CompTIA exams here?
We also list CompTIA Security+ (up to 90 questions, pass mark 750 / 900) from CompTIA. This one is up to 85 questions and a pass mark of 750 / 900, and its scored areas are the ones in the table above - they do not overlap exam for exam, so material for one is not a substitute for the other.
Which version of the CompTIA Cybersecurity Analyst (CySA+) outline is this written against?
The CS0-003 outline published by CompTIA. Exam bodies retire and renumber outlines, so check the current one on the CompTIA exam page before you book.
