I am getting ready for the Fortinet FCSS Enterprise Firewall 7.6 Administrator certification and wanted to gather some feedback from people who have already taken the exam.
For those who passed recently:
Which objectives carried the most weight?
Did the exam lean more toward configuration knowledge or troubleshooting scenarios?
How detailed were the questions on VPNs, routing, and security policies?
What study resources gave you the biggest return on your preparation time?
I have also noticed a lot of discussion around Study4Exam practice questions. If anyone has used them for FCSS_EFW_AD-7.6 exam, I would be interested in hearing whether they were helpful for exam preparation.

I sat for the exam a few weeks ago. In my experience, troubleshooting and understanding feature behavior were more important than simply memorizing configuration options.
Expect questions involving policy evaluation, traffic flow analysis, VPN deployments, authentication methods, and diagnosing network security issues. Being able to understand why something works or fails is very important.
Regarding Study4Exam, I included their practice questions in my study plan after seeing recommendations from other candidates. They were useful for testing my knowledge and highlighting topics that needed additional review. I especially liked using them as a final check before the actual exam.
If I were preparing again, I would spend less time memorizing commands and more time understanding real deployment and troubleshooting scenarios.
