I’ve Successfully Failed the F5 Certification 201-TMOS Administration Exam

Yup, you read that right. I did not pass the F5 Certified BIG-IP Administrator test I took while at F5 Agility 2017. And I’m not ashamed since it was a challenging test and I will be trying again...

301b definitely easier than 301a in my book. I failed 301a the first time and wouldn't welcome the prospect of sitting it again. I have also recently taken 301b again to re-certify with hardly any preparation and passed. My theory is, if you're working with the product regularly, you don't need to study for troubleshooting, you just know it. 301a on the other hand requires a lot of preparation.
