5.0 out of 5 stars This book is insanely HUGE

B. · September 5, 2024

I love the information within the book as it seems to have everything you need to know in order to pass the exam but this book could be split into 2. It would be nice if it was split according to the 1101 and 1102 exams. The content is great but the amount of content is overwhelming. I guess this one with Dion and Messer, you'll be overly prepared for the exam and hopefully pass on the first try. But I also recommend getting the Kindle version.

5.0 out of 5 stars good book, goes into a lot of detail

E.H. · October 30, 2024

The book is very thick and covers a lot of material. I have not taken the exam yet, so I cannot attest to if it helps on the exam.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to understand, review and follow!

It covers everything from hardware and software troubleshooting to networking and security concepts, with clear explanations and helpful diagrams that make complex concepts easy to understand.One of the things I appreciated most about this study guide was the inclusion of practice questions and exam tips throughout the book. The practice questions were especially helpful in preparing me for the format and difficulty of the actual exam. The book also includes access to online practice tests, which are a great way to further reinforce your knowledge and skills.Another great feature of this guide is the author's writing style. The author has a clear and concise writing style that makes the material easy to follow and engaging to read. I found myself flying through chapters without getting bogged down in technical jargon or unnecessary detail.Overall, I highly recommend the CompTIA A+ Complete Study Guide: Core 1 Exam 220-1101 and Core 2 Exam 220-1102 to anyone looking to become A+ certified. It is an excellent resource that provides all the information you need to succeed on the exams, and the included practice questions and exam tips make it a valuable tool for anyone looking to pass the A+ certification exams.

4.0 out of 5 stars Includes all the information you could want!

A.S. · November 13, 2023

The only problem I have with the book is that it is not set up in the same order as the test is. Other than that, it's great, and includes all the information you need. I love the quizzes on each section.

5.0 out of 5 stars Big Book Consider Kindle Version

L.E.P. · September 16, 2022

The content is fantastic! The material is easy to follow with a logical progression. Although as I began to increase my study time and bring my book with me I quickly became annoyed with its size. There is no good way to hold it unless you use a stand or prop the book on a bag. The pages have a semi gloss to them which also made it difficult to read in direct light. I’m buying a Kindle and using that version from now on. with Readwise integration for notes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Detailed book to help you pass the A+ Exam

A wealth of info. Well written. Recommend it

Good book! Passed both exams!

S. · December 1, 2023

It has a lot of content and the material is easy to follow with a logical progression. I have to say I found the part covering Core 1 more accurate than the part covering Core 2, but overall I would absolutely recommend this book!

Good book!!

G.V. · February 3, 2023

Just what I needed..Thanks

Content = great! Book = Absurdly Large.

I.V. · November 11, 2022

The content in this book is great and will help you for the exam. But I suggest getting the Ebook instead. The book is massive. It probably could be split into two large books itself. If that doesn’t bother you then power to you!

fantastic
