I just passed the core test Friday. I am in the MCSE program and took classes
for A+. First 4 questions about blew me away on the test. After that I coasted
through it.
I used accurate braindumps and studied very hard using mostly ExamCram book
and Transcender tests. I will be taking A+ software in 2 weeks using these same
methods.

I resently passed A+ with a 92 on the core and 83, dos-win. I used the dummies
book and the new riders top score softwhere test. The test had identical questions
that the new riders had and if you buy the extra 700 questions from new rider's,
you will pass

I JUST PASSED THE A+ EXAMS ON FRIDAY, JUNE 9,2000. I SCORED A 94 ON WIN/DOS
AND 98 ON CORE.
I TOOK A COURSE AT A NEARBY COLLEGE AND USED VARIOUS STUDY GUIDES. IF YOU KNOW
YOUR WAY AROUND THE VARIOUS OSes REQUIRED FOR WIN/DOS AND IRQ'S, I/O ADDRESSES,
ETC. FOR CORE YOU WILL BE FINE. THE TEST WAS EASIER THAN I THOUGHT IT WOULD
BE.

I passed the A+ exam with a 95% on the Core and 94% on DOS/Windows. I have to
admit that I have done a lot of hands on with DOS through Win95. It certainly
helped a lot. Just a note, if your trying to pass the exam by just pulling information
off the internet, I would advise against it. For beginners, a good study guide
is a great starter. The Dummies books helped me pick out any weak areas as they
were for the intermediate to advanced user level. If you find that you are confused
by the topics contained in these advanced books, they need more attention. Realize,
you probably wont see test questions from CompTIA on the web, that would comprimise
the test. A good amount of study, hands on, and dedication to the subject matter
will help you to join the long list of A+ certified techs, and impress your
future employer.
I will be going for my Network+ certification, in the mean time, best wishes
on your attemps. Its a great feeling to be certified.

took the core for a+ today. i passed with an 82%,but i was hoping for at least
a score in the high 80's.still,not bad for someone with absolutely no experience.i
took a 16 week course in the subject,so that obviously helped,along with the
heathkit simulation tests.i kept hearing that the exam was tricky,but i really
didn't find that to be the case.in fact,i thought is was pretty sraight-forward.

I passed the A+ in march, I did it on my own, and now teach a course on PC service
and repair with a focus on passing the A+ at the end of 12 weeks..

I passed the Core test a few weeks ago and finally passed the Dos/Windows test
on Wednesday. Now it's time to get a job. I probably studied from every A+ help
site out there. I have a good 500 pages I printed from different sites with
test questions or stuff that they said was on there test so it helped alot and
I would recommend anyone out there that hasn't taken the test, to do the same
as I did. I would stay up till 2 or 3 in the morning printing and studying.
Before I passed the Dos/Windows test I started my A+ help site and hope that
you would come and see it. I have tried to cover both tests the best I could
and hope it helps those that are going to take the test. I would like to thank
everyone that has an A+ help site because without you, I probably wouldn't be
A+ Certified right now. The A+ Study Guide by David Frost was a big help too
and I highly recommend that book to everyone. If your interested my url is http://www.crosswinds.net/~pctechonline

I used the SYBEX and ExamCram
books along with the practice tests from www.freepractice.com I wrote my core
exam last night and was finished within 20mins. I ended up with high eighties
for a score. Next up is the DOS/WIN!

I just took the A+ (DOS) test. The test did not reflect a entry level position
for a computer tech. It had several question on HIMEM.SYS, and one .DAO and
NetBEUI. I used Microsoft Press A+ certification and Marcraft International
as study material. None of the above question were address in the study material.
My test score was 60, passing score is 66. The test was very diffcult. About
15 questions were not addressed by the study material.

I used the A+ exam cram to help me prepare for the test. It helped a lot but
the internet and sites like this helped the most.

i took the core almost a week ago and passed with a 82%. you see the trick is
to cram,cram,cram. know your irq, dma channels, communication ports, know how
a lazer printer works (know the steps)is a must, and you should do alright.
i was a bit nerves going in, i really wasn't sure what was going to be on the
test but i had taken many practice test on different sites to give myself some
confidence. when i went in most of the question on my exam were ALMOST word
for word questions from "examnotes.net" (the core part at least).
now it's on to the dos\win part of the test, time to be nerves again. good luck
and have some faith in yourself, and you'll do fine.

I had a college class for the A+ certification test in Fall of 99, and we used
Marcraft's "The New A+ Certification Training Guide" with its accompanying
lab manual. It worked well, but was too big to use as a review. For reviewing,
I used IDG's "A+ Certification for Dummies."
Just the right size to use as a review of the high points.

I have finished the A+ Course and passed both exams 85% and 80%. I have just
been offered a position teaching at the college that I did the course at. So
for me the course has been very sucessful. I encourage you all to do the A+
it is not hard but takes some serious effort on your part. My course was 3 Months
long and cost $7,000 New Zealand Dollars but as I have scored a good paying
job straight away I think that the money was well worth it. The books that I
used were the A+ Complete by David Groth, and the Tenth Edition of Repairing
& Upgrading by Scott Mueller. Both books are excellent value. Do it, it
isn't that hard and it will give you a good start in the industry

Study guide/Transcender Test Disk and the A+ Complete Study Guide. Almost everyone
in my class used the Transcender Test CD's and all have gotten scores of 80%
and above.....most in the 90's. Good luck to all of you.
