COVERS EXAMS 220-221 AND 220-222

A+ Adaptive Exams outlines the current CompTIA concepts and objectives needed to "ace" the A+ adaptive certification exams (220-221 and 220-222). This book was written as a no-nonsense, straight-to-the-point guide to prepare you to pass both modules (Core Hardware and OS Technologies) required for A+ certification. Instead of attempting to teach you everything you need to know to be an expert PC technician, this book isolates the particular topics most likely to be addressed on the exams. The computerized adaptive testing (CAT) format is covered in detail, training you to "think" like the exams. In addition, the CD-ROM contains eight simulated practice exams with review features that help assess areas of weakness. Written by a Network Administrator, IT Manager, and award-winning Certified A+ Instructor, the book draws upon exhaustive subject expertise and teaching experience to provide everything you need to know to pass the exams.

Summary: Book a Bit Dated
Comment: I would say overall, the book material is about average.

It appears to me that the ver. I received was written for the 2001 A+ exam; not the current 2003 exam. The hardware section is very dated but still applicable to the 2003 exam. The OS section doesn't even cover WIN XP. It has a large section on DOS and WIN 95 both of which have very few questions on the 2003 exam. On the other hand, the WIN 9.X, WIN NT, and WIN 2000 sections are very comprehensive; especially the WIN NT section.

The CD test material I would rate below average. Not many questions and those given are to easy to answer.

As anyone who has studied and sat for the A+ recommends, you need multiple study and practice test materials and sources to pass the exam.

Summary: I passed new A+ tests with this book.
Comment: I bought this book for fifteen bucks. Used it as my only guide and passed both of the new A+ test. I rate this book 10 big stars....

Summary: Good overview
Comment: I just passed my A+, I used Adaptive Exams and Exam Crams 2. Adaptive Exams seemed to be more straight forward and didn't give bad examples that were hard to understand. The only thing when using Adaptive Exams, is you do need to have a basic understanding of computers.

If you have a general background and want a book that's short and to the point, this is the book for you.

Summary: Awesome Source for a Ridiculously Easy Exam
Comment: This book is the perfect study source for someone with experience. I personally have over 5 years of I.T. experience, so I read this book in a week and passed both exams in less than 20 minutes. I think it's good that CompTIA is going back to the linear format because 30 questions (20 if your getting all the answers right) is just not enough to properly gauge a candidate's overall knowledge. I'm not complaining, I'm just stating a fact that there might be a lot of A+ certified techs out there that really don't know squat about PC's. But hey, I passed and now I'm A+ certified as a result. Now I can make $8.00 per hour at CompUSA or Best Buy! Willie - CCNA, Network+, A+
