Hi there. I'm new here. I stumbled across the site while looking for study guides and advise. I am a bit confused. I am studying for my CompTIA A+ Essentials but I can't find any reference to it in the study guides here, or in the practice exams.
Am I doing a different course or am I doing OS,Network and Core rolled in to one?

A+ Essentials is 220-601 which is one of two exams one must pass to achieve an A+ certification. A+ IT Technician is 220-602 which is the other exam. (I believe you have an option of 603 and 604) You get the objectives of the A+ exams from CompTIA:http://certification.comptia.org/a/ Am I doing a different course or am I doing OS,Network and Core rolled in to one? The A+ Essentials is basically all over the place from Windows 2000, Windows XP, Networks, Memory, Cables, Command-Line, BIO/CMOS, Hard Drive Technologies and all that jazz. There are TechNotes on this forum if you havn't noticed. Which are very helpful!

I was convinced that I was doing A+ Core and A+ OS, I was wrong! Can I ask another question? As part of my material I have been given a Mike Meyers practice exam cd, are the questions on this cd anything like what I can expect in the real exam?

If the CD states its for the 601 or 602, I would say yes. Mike Meyers is great at this stuff, I used his All-in-One book to pass the A+...
