Frequently asked questions

Are these CompTIA A+ practice questions free?
Yes. Every question here is free, with the correct answer and an explanation. No account, payment, or download is required.
Which A+ exams do these questions cover?
They follow the current CompTIA A+ objectives for the two required exams: Core 1 (220-1201) and Core 2 (220-1202). You must pass both to earn the certification.
How many questions are on the real A+ exam?
Each A+ exam has a maximum of 90 questions in 90 minutes, including performance-based questions. Core 1 passes at 675 and Core 2 at 700, on a scale of 100 to 900.
