The exam itself is not terribly difficult; so long as you know the content. I would strongly suggest building a small lab that you can test the theories and get some hands-on experience. On top of that here are some resources I strongly recommend:
Study Resources
The internet is loaded with tons of resources for studying to pass the a plus exam. Some of them are great and others will just hinder your studying. Below is a list of resources that I personally find to be helpful for those looking into studying and passing the CompTIA A+ exam.
- Professor Messer’s free A+ Videos – Most of you probably already know about Messer’s free videos. The videos are a bit dry but the content is great.
- passtheaplus.com – FREE online resource with CompTIA A+ study notes & study guides. I blog here.
- CertForums – The forums that I frequent the most often! Great community to ask questions and get feedback. More personable group of professionals than the other forum I frequent.
- Exam Cram by David L. Prowse – My personal favorite if you prefer reading from an actual book. The content is to the point without boring you to death. A great overview.
- TechExams.net A+ forum – Huge community of other IT folks like you and me. Great place to participate and ask questions. Great for encouragement in pursuing your IT career.
- CompTIA subreddit – Surely you know about Reddit. Huge community with 3,500+ other techies.
