Skill 1 in course 2.5: Exam Readiness
Exam Technique
Build a practice lab that mirrors the exam, and learn how to work through a timed practical exam without losing marks.
You will be able to
- Build a two-machine practice lab with the disks and services the practice exam needs, and reset it between attempts.
- Read a task for what is actually being checked, and choose an order that saves time.
- Verify every task the way a grader would, and prove persistence with a reboot.
- Find a command or option offline with man, apropos and the documentation shipped on the system.
