From the course: CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1101) Cert Prep

How to use this video course

- Now let's talk about how you can use this video course to make sure that you easily pass the CompTIA A+ exam. Now, this is our book here. This is the "McGraw Hill CompTIA A+ Certification "All-In-One Exam Guide, 11th Edition." And this book covers both exams. So the 220-1101, or Core 1, side, and the 220-1102, or Core 2, side. And the book chapters follow along perfectly in sync with the video chapters, so you can actually watch the video, learn, and reinforce your knowledge by using the book. Now, another thing you need to know about this video course is that sometimes we're going to present little pop-ups like this, and this is a key term pop-up, and you're going to want to make sure that you pay attention to these and learn these terms. Also, you may see an objective term like this. Right? And those objective terms directly relate to what CompTIA has on the exam, so make sure you pay attention to those as well. Sometimes, from time to time, I'm going to give you a little exam tip, and those icons look like that. Right? So make sure you pay attention when you see those exam tips. And one final thing, I'm going to give you tips from time to time that may not necessarily be covered on the exam, but will make you a better PC technician. And you're going to see those look like that. At the end of every episode, you're going to notice that we have a bunch of summarized points. That's your quick review, and those are going to help you quickly understand what all we covered on that chapter or in that video, and help you summarize the important parts. You're also going to find all sorts of resources where they're going to include the exam objectives we talked about and information and links from each episode, as well as links to things like Mike's Cool Tools and Steve's Super Sites. And one final thing you're going to have is an objective map for the episodes. So this resource is going to be able to drill down into the very specific sub-objectives and help you know where to go to find that in each chapter. And that's it. That's how you use this video course and our book. If you use both of them and if you follow the objectives and the summarizations we've outlined, you'll have no problem passing the A+ exam.
