I remember reading this post shortly after you wrote it and thinking the GSE was always going to be one step beyond me. Well, two years on, lots and lots of study with real world hands-on practice and taking a chance, I’m now a GSE.

A number of your blog pieces really helped out this slow windows admin understand Linux’s CLI for my GSE study. Thank you for taking the time to write them up and make them easy to understand and apply.

I learned a huge amount from the whole event; from simply working on systems I won’t normal touch to the pressure cooker of the exam itself.

I hope you decide to give the exam ago, as I believe you’d enjoy the experience and it’s fantastic goal to strive for.

Regards,

Chris
