5 Steps to Ace the LPI or CompTIA Linux+ Exam

Linux jobs are on the rise. You can have access to 3,600 Linux job openings.

The presence of the Linux Professional Institute has grown abundantly in the country and the demand for certification exams has also grown. This is a reflection of the growth in the use of the Linux operating system, and of people's awareness of becoming professionals and being well paid for it. Today LPI has more than 32,000 certified people worldwide.

1. Step: Have willpower

Having willpower goes beyond simply wanting. It involves knowing what you want, thinking about the benefits of what you want, and evaluating the requirements.

2) Step: Schedule the exam

Choose a Pearson Vue testing center near you and schedule the exam about three months in advance.

3. Step: Buy a good book

Choose the book carefully. If possible, pick up a copy at the bookstore and read a few pages. See if the author's writing style appeals to you. This is important. If you are practical, you will hate reading a text from someone detail-oriented. If you are detail-oriented, you will hate reading a text from someone concise. Yes, the profile matters. Because studying is already not easy and any resistance to the medium will dissipate your willpower. So you need to like the author's style. Take a look at my book, the Linux Certification. You can read the first chapter here. Another suggestion is my book for the LPIC 1 Linux certification, multimedia and full of didactic content to reinforce learning.

4. Step: Do exercises

The brain is a "muscle". The more you exercise it, the stronger and more resistant it becomes.

5. Step: Take practice tests

This item is a complement to the previous one, but it is so important that I decided to separate it so that you give more attention to it. A practice test will give you an exact idea of the type of questions on the exams you will encounter along the way. There are questions that are maliciously formulated so that you fall into the common sense pitfall. Did you like this tip? How about preparing for real and with objectivity?
