Deep Dive

Start your CompTIA A+ journey the right way.

The CompTIA A+ requires two exams to certify. Core 1 (220-1201) is the first one - and passing it on your first attempt means you carry momentum straight into Core 2 rather than paying US$253 again and waiting to resit before you've even started the second half.

Core 1 is heavier on hardware and networking than most candidates expect. Mobile devices, networking protocols, virtualisation, cloud computing, and hardware troubleshooting are all tested - and performance-based questions put you in scenario simulations that you can't bluff through. The candidates who struggle are usually the ones who focused on memorising component specs and skipped the troubleshooting and cloud sections. This PDF covers the whole exam, including those questions.

462 real questions from the actual 220-1201 in one place - every MCQ and PBQ. You won't be seeing the question format for the first time on exam day.

If my free YouTube content is enough to pass, great. But if you want the full question bank before you sit down, this PDF is for you.
