CompTIA A+ Practice Tests and how to best use them

There are a couple of misconceptions about practice tests when it comes to preparing for  exams:

Misconception 1: The questions are the actual exam questions

Misconception 2: Because of misconception 1 users believe that all you have to do is memorize the answers.

Misconception 1 betrays a lack of understanding of exam integrity rules as well as copyright laws. For the questions that are at the exam to be on a practice exam whoever publishes them would run afoul of both copyright laws and the rules and regulations that apply to all exams. Nobody is allowed to “give away the exam” for ethical reasons as well purely operational ones. What would be the value of a candidate that doesn’t know the material but will remember correct answers only? In this case, it gets worse because CompTIA gives out life-times bans on any of their certifications to any candidate they catch cheating this way. They have done it regularly in the past and will do it again in the future.

Misconception 2 betrays a misunderstanding of how CompTIA develops and manages its certification exams. Regular updates and a heavy reliance on both performance-based questions and scenario-based questions render rote memorization pretty useless. They do this because they want to keep their credentials relevant. They achieve that by making sure they measure understanding of the issues by the candidate vs rote memory that will be of limited use once on the field.

Finally, you as a credentialled A+ certified technician want to know you achieved a relevant certification, not something so benign it can just be memorized…
