Took the exam a few days ago, most of the questions look very similar to the ones I had. Be sure to have a good understand on cloud computing, virtualization and raid. I got a fair amount of questions on those.

For anyone who has actually looked at the exam objectives for 1101, these are a mix of 1101 and 1102. Great job on the questions but these are way too easy and send mixed messages on what is actually on the test

[@zikijackson7408]

exactly what i was thinking. 1101 does not have prompt commands as far as i know

[@cb253]

Glad you said that, I was about Leroy Jenkins into the test without waisting another second studying lol, I will still likely pass but an ounce of prevention beats a pound of cure.

[@mouthfulacoque3580]

no kidding. I am homeless and had to drop out of college. if this is what I was going to school for, I would have lit the place on fire every saturday for the next 10 weeks for good measure.

[@MuggPro]

@@zikijackson7408 they do have prompt commands. My questions were based on DNS prompt commands and even had a click and drag question for it as well. Do not be deceived, this test has 100's of different questions to pull from for the test and nobody will be getting the same questions. Unfortunately, the amount of info to go through is quite large and it shouldn't be taken lightly if you have no I.T. experience. I didn't pass the first go around on the first exam (got a 622 and needed a 675 too pass) missed by 4ish questions and had around 150 hours of studying/watching COMPTIA and professor messor videos. MAKE SURE TO KNOW WHAT TYPES OF QUESTIONS WILL BE ON THE TEST BEFORE TAKING IT!!!

[@surrealkiller7828]

a question only becomes hard.. if you dont know the answer .... the format and subject matter in this video are spot on ..in reference to the test format... there are 1000's of questions that could be asked.

Useful, but many question were repeated. Helpful when it repeats questions you did not know.

[@lordkroak6670]

When I took the exam all I got were questions about setting up networks, printers, and how to connect certain wires.

[@cmichael2967]

Concerns: 1. Repetition 2. Not sure if some of the command questions are for Core 1

[@colinlarson9656]

Those command questions better not be on the core one test figuring there is nothing about them in the core 1 curriculum.

[@LauncherSpiderMk7]

Yeah, I noticed that, too. Kinda lazy that they didn't catch how many repeats there were.

[@mondestaortiz7078]

Awesome! Thank you! Just what I needed to begin practicing! Please wish me well!

Just go watch Professor Messer. This practice exam sucks. Literally all of these are repeat, softball, or irrelevant questions.

Is no else going comment on the fact that questions 42 - 48 were exact repeats from earlier questions on this quiz.

Hey Dale! It's been two months, have you taken the exam?

[@thedaledoe]

@@jayson3466 Yes, I took it once and passed in early March (I think) and while I don't remember which question from this video spurred my comment I will say it wasn't that difficult of a test. Some questions were super basic and obvious while others were more complicated, at least the way they were worded. All of the concepts are simple but the wording and what "they/CompTIA" want you to say take some extra thought. Getting ready to take the Core 2 exam now. Probably by this weekend.

La certificación A+ es un timo para sacarle dinero a las personas. ¿Como es posible que yo que tengo diploma, bachillerato, maestría en el área de tecnología deba tener, según criterios sembrados por terceros, tener un certificado que me diga que se manejar un ordenador. Si se fijan la certificación se basa en la memorización y estamos claros que memorizar no es sinónimo de inteligencia. El certificacado está diseñado más para el empresario que para crear personas con análisis crítico o métodos de investigación. Te venden la idea de que es necesario cuando no lo es poniendo primero por encima el certificado que la experiencia. Soy profesor de reparación de PC y créame de la única manera que ese certificado sirva es para alguien que en su vida a tomado un curso de tecnología y desea aprender. No debe ser para todos.
