 Are you yourself a dummy? If so, consider this book! July 31, 2008
I'm willing to bet that anyone who uses this book as a stand alone study guide for the A+ exam will be broadsided by a mediocre (AT BEST) score, even if the book were open right next to you while taking the test.
I just bought CompTIA A+ Practice Questions (Exam Cram by Que) second edition, and found myself reading questions that seemed completely foreign. I began using the 'Dummies' guide as a reference to answer the practice questions, and still found myself answerless. The test prep questions in the 'dummies' guide are really easy and give you a false confidence.
In retrospect I would have saved my eyes the pain of reading over a thousand pages, had I known I would only need to read another book to fill in the gaps in my working knowledge. After reading this dummy-book, I have a dummy-edumacation to go with. Thanks dummies!

I purchased this book in order to pass the A+ exam and also to have as a desk reference. This book did both. It is very informative and great to have lying around for whenever you come across a problem. I recently took and passed both the A+ Essentials and then the IT-Technician exam. Both on the first attempt. This is the only book I used to prepare for the exam. The only reason I did not give it all 5 stars is because I wish the book was organized around the different A+ exams. Instead it is all blended together. If you only want to study for a particular exam then you will have to use the index and jump around the book. Just read the book once, review some test questions and you will do fine on the A+ exams. But it is a great book to have for reference.

I have just got my A+ Certification and I think that this book was much more informative than both books that came with my class. If you want more in depth instruction,this would definately be a good choice.I told the other people in my class about the book and most said that they would get the book also.
Very Good but could be improved December 30, 2007
As one other reviewer said there were some bugs on the CD test questions. The one thing I would have like to have seen, was a way to just take the test on questions from specfic topics.
