This book made me fully prepared for the Comptia A+ exam if you can get 90% or more on the test you should be able to past the real test.
Unless you're a "Pretender" (or a genius that can absorb information by only reading), get the recommended experience or instruction before taking the test. I didn't have access to a print version - I used Books247 online version to study for my A+ test. Boost your confidence with this book AFTER you've learned the basics. If you're using this only, its going to be a mighty expensive lesson to learn. If you know your stuff from other references, this Cliffs book will get you polished before you sit for the test. Just follow the instructions, pick which A+ test you will take, and answer the questions.As a warning with most other A+ study books - KNOW YOUR STUFF FIRST.
I also used Meyers AIO and the Sybex CompTIA A+ Complete Study Guide to prepare (both I would recommend). I wouldn't recommend purchasing this book. Anyway, I passed both exams on the first try.220-601: 750 (minimum 675 to pass)220-602: 770 (minimum 700 to pass) I bought this book to help prepare me for the CompTIA 220-601 and 220-602 exams. The practice questions were helpful in preparing me for the 601 but as for the 602, the questions did not help at all.
I got 79 missed two easy questions and got 81 on real exam. The questions in this book were a full notch or two above the real exam. Cliff Notes is much more thorough, but is not overkill as explanations are there for every question. Author said if you got above 70 you were ready. I am 20+ years out of college, no pc tech experience and got 725/900. Practice test by rmroberts.com I thought was good; downloadeable off of google.
There are many other test question books out there that do the job much better than this one does unfortunately. This book really didn't help me at all, only made me question whether I was ready to take the exam. Some of the questions were not written well and others were way too difficult for the A+ exam.
