Course Description

All questions are based on the Exam Objectives for the 220-1001 exam for all 5 domains of the exam, so you can take the actual CompTIA A+ (220-1001) Core 1 exam with confidence, and PASS it!

In this course, you will get fully prepared for what it is like to take the CompTIA A+ (220-1001) Core 1 exam. This course doesn't just provide you with full-length practice exams (each of which is timed at 90 minutes), but it will also train you how to become a better test taker.

For most CompTIA A+ (220-1001) test takers, this is their FIRST certification exam in the Information Technology (IT) industry. If this is true for you, then you need this course to learn how to take these exams the proper way.

Certification exams are expensive to take, so you only want to take it one time and you want to pass it. This course is designed to help you do just that.

First, you are going to learn how the exam is developed and what to expect on the exam in terms of the number of questions, the length of the exam, the testing process, and other such fundamentals.

Then, you are going to learn how to perform better on the exam by using my Top 5 test taking techniques that have helped over 100,000 students (just like you) earn their industry certifications.

After that, you will put my tips into practice in two CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1001) full-length practice exams with 90 questions each. You will receive your total final score, along with feedback on each and every question, telling you exactly why each answer is correct, so you can pinpoint the areas in which you need to improve and perform some additional study.

These CompTIA A+ (220-1001) Core 1 Practice Exams will provide you with realistic test questions and provide you with interactive, question-level feedback.

After that, you will focus on the Performance Based Simulations (PBQs) for the CompTIA A+ (220-1001) Core 1 exam. Here you will learn all about motherboards, wireless configurations, mobile device configurations, command line troubleshooting with IPCONFIG and PING, and how to configure RAIDs. Each of these simulations are designed to ensure you will PASS the CompTIA A+ (220-1001) Core 1 exam come test day.

These PBQs (often called simulations by students) are the hardest questions on the exam, and this course will ensure you are ready to conquer them on the exam!

So, you won't be hoping you are ready, after this course you will know that you are ready to take and pass the exam. After practicing these tests and scoring an 90% or higher on them, you will be ready to PASS on the first attempt and avoid costly re-schedule fees, saving you time and money.

What others are saying about my CompTIA courses:

  • This set of questions focused me on the required learning and was instrumental in my passing...well worth the cost... (Pranav, 5 stars)

  • Setup of the questions feels so like being in a real exam environment... loved it! (Behaviour, 5 stars)

  • This course really helped me to prepare and pass the PBQs on the 1001 exam. Hoping the 1002 edition is released before taking part 2 of the exam! Thank you! (Cory, 5 stars)

I'm writing this review moments after passing my Comptia A+ 1001 exam and I highly recommend this course. The practice exams, the PBQ's, the test strategies not only made a huge impact my study efforts but allowed me to take the Comptia A+ 1001 exam with confidence. This course is well made and structured to help any students looking to practice for the Comptia A+ 1001 exam without feeling loss or confused and is one of the best resources out there.

By Donald Amaele on 6/13/2022

You turned my patience to retain information through insight and kindness to receive your holy word of encouragement - while I was receiving your kindness via udemy, you also showed me what were distractors such pata - pata connector/floppy drive connector and ide, fazed-out agp for new PCI, rare PCIe x8 and PCIx4, the 3 fans of the systems and one of the CPU, power and CPU connectors closed to their respective locations/continents, etc,. Mr John Dion, thank you very much. I am so happy I had about on youTube

By Carlton Robinson on 11/23/2021

I thought the information was good while taking the course. But when I took my exam, I failed. This review has nothing to do with the regular comptia a+ training material, since this course is mainly PBQs. My regular training material was from Mike Meyers's Udemy course, and that wasn't sufficient enough for the exams either; since I failed. The test I took had email and wireless configurations on it. Both email and wireless in this course, did not cover enough for me to get that portion 100% correct. There were other PBQs on the comptia exam, but they weren't covered in this course, which messed me up even more. It was technically 1 extra PBQs question, but it had 3 separate parts/pages that looked nothing alike and none of it was covered in this course. It sucks, because I only failed by like 30 points. But considering both courses didn't prepare me enough, I guess I'm glad I failed(minus the money lost lol). I rather get better material and pass my courses with lasting knowledge, than get a job based on a low scored exam pass, and not know what I'm doing in the real world. Despite all of this, the way this trainer explains things, makes them easier for me to understand. I think if he went in full detail to cover every objective on the exam, or at least every PBQs objective and possibility, it would be an easy 5 star. I've listened to several comptia a+ trainers just to hear how they teach, and Jason's explanations were the best to me personally; thus far. What he did teach, I understood. It just lacked information. So my rating is based on this course, not the trainer himself.

This is an absolutely amazing review if you are short on time to cover the exam objectives. I used this along with the online book I received when I Purchased my certification voucher and they were a prefect combination. Thanks to Dion I was able to pass my Core 1 on my first attempt.

By Frank Gliha on 8/9/2021

This course truly was beyond my expectations. It is designed for AFTER you have done all of your studying elsewhere, and are about to take the test. In this particular thing, it excels. The two practice tests alone are worth the price of the course, but it goes beyond that with all the test taking methodologies, strategies and tips, and PBQ lessons. For the price I paid this course was an incredible value, and I feel so much more confident about testing after competing it.

By Aaryn Robinson on 4/12/2021

Great material. Love the overview of the domains as they coalign with the exam objecives on the real CompTIA A+ test. Clarity and attention to detail is what makes this course highly recommended .Ive built an insane amount of confidence through these videos and now i am on my way to book the real exam. THANKS Mr.Dior!

By Austin Sanvidge on 12/20/2020

I just passed my 1001 test and I believe this heavily evened the odds when it comes to what to look for on the test. Jason doesn't waste your time he gets straight to the nitty gritty. You should be somewhat knowledgeable about the 1001 before attending this course, I watched all of Professor Messer's 1001 videos and read Mike Meyers A+ book. (You can get by without the book, if you already understand the core concepts) This course is worth the money if you feel hesitant at all about testing.

By Dustin Wilson on 11/21/2020

Coming from Mike Meyers training and I am enjoying Mr.Dion's work so far.

By Harry Robinson on 11/21/2020

Great Teach. I learned a lot :)

By Apurva shah on 11/19/2020

I Passeed my core 1 at 3rd attempt, only because of Jason Dion's techiniques and practice tests, He has a very particular way of teaching, which suited me and passed with a score of 770, thank you so much Jason and Tamera. I especially like the PBQ section, where he makes you understand the bascis, so once you understand it, no matter what comes in your actual exam you will pass with flying colours. You guys are doing great work in putting up these courses, which reflect so close to the actual exams. To any student who is reading this review, do not think twice, take this course, stick to what he says and you will pass !!

By Matthew Easton on 11/14/2020

I was looking more for content, rather than how to take a test.

By Michael Hernandez on 11/14/2020

Makes compilated topics like RAID easier to understand.
