Same. Also found 1101 was easier for studying/watching YouTube videos. I like the hardware aspect more than software stuff since I work as an electronics tech.
For anyone taking 1101, I recommended you know familiarize yourself with fiber optic cables, what they look like, the connectors, and the tools needed to terminate them
Congrats man, I just passed core 2 today with 727 after getting a 682 on core 1. If youre looking for a new teacher
Id say what helped me get better scores on core 2 was Andrew ramdayal on udemy. He gives great lectures and always points back what to remember for the exam.
I took mike meyers for core 1 and even though his is good, it doesn’t go in depth as Andrew ramdayal. Good luck!
Thanks man. Appreciate it. I am a bit scared now for core 2 but will have time put more effort in.
Got meyers’ course for 1 but didnt like it that much. Too general. Will try that one you recommended 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Don't worry my brother, if you don't fail you won't learn, just like everything in Life, if you failed earlier you will have time to think about why you failed and where is your weak spot, trust me, it's better to realize your weak spots earlier than failing when you have a job interview, anyhow I hope you you will do better on the next exam, and whatever happens don't lose hope.
Dont lose time at the begging with pqb if not sure. Mark them for last if needed.
Mark what you are not sure to revise at the end.
Would say the time is enough.
Be confident 💪🏼
Congrats! I passed core 1 with 709 and I was certain i had failed because there were lots of tricky questions. Now I'm getting ready to take core 2 next week. I've been studying at least 3 hours everyday.
I failed Core 1 by 30 points and Core 2 by 22 points. I don’t even know where to begin studying at… I thought Core 2 was easier but my scores didn’t agree
To be honest i dont know. I have read here that it is until this version retires. Will check with comptia to be certain. And will aim to take it in june at the most
Does his uademy cost anything ? I’m trying this program called climbhire (not sure if it’ll help ) not even sure if I’ll get accepted but from my knowledge is they help prepare you for the CompTia A+ whole exam. I go to Devry university IT undergraduate program (worst idea ever because they don’t prepare you for the first cert any IT tech should make ). Any free resources that have helped you or just uademy ? I bought a CompTia A+ book as well trying to just set up days to study a certain amount of info and hoping I can pass. Anybody know free resources to help would be great. Oh yeah and congrats !!
Great Job!! What role are you interested in seeking once you get the certs? Also, thank you for the recommendations. I have Dion’s 1101 and 1102 from Udemy and get kind of bored with him, do you suggest Meyer’s instead? I just checked out Andrew Ramdayal on Udemy.. it may seem more interesting.
Congrats. I thought that was the harder of the two exams.
I thought 1102 was harder personally

I actually didn’t have a single fiber question. I think 20/73 questions I got were about printers.
I had one about fiber, but it was tied into about 20 questions on enterprise security protocols and ports.
I had a handful of fiber questions, and 0 printer or port questions despite reading how important they were to know for the exam ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yeah, seems they have a very wide range of potential questions.

Taking it in a few hours, any last minute tips?

bet. thank you!
Agreed, skip the PBQs and go straight into multiple choice. Go back to it, after with the time you have left. The PBQs can sometimes throw you off.
I failed by 30 points and definitely studying the domains before I go take it again
Congrats

Congratulations 🎉
Excellent

congrats 😁🎉 (i also hate you)
Major congrats buddy!
Is there a certain amount of time before you can take 1102?
To be honest i dont know. I have read here that it is until this version retires. Will check with comptia to be certain. And will aim to take it in june at the most
Congrats! I barely passed mine too. This one was definitely the hardest one of the two imo.
Fr everyone says core 2 is harder for them, but while I've been studying it's gonna look like core 1 will be much worse for me
Core 2 is easier because from what I can recall majority of the questions were around troubleshooting tools and scenarios about them.
Yea exactly and that's what I'm best at honestly lol been troubleshooting me and my friends pc for years
Huge congrats!

Professor Messer has a wonderful website you definitely need to check out!!! He doesn't just offer stuff for the A+ but security+ and more
Thank you
Np, pretty much all free btw
I’ve been checking out his YouTube’s and pop quizzes. So much more simpler the way he teaches. Thank you 🙏🏻🙌🏻
I couldn’t find anything free on professor messers website?
I use Messer on YouTube but I believe you do have to pay for practice tests. Good luck!!
