CompTIA A+ Study Plan
AI-generated Daily Plans for the CompTIA A+ (220-1101 and 220-1102). Foundational IT certification across two exams covering hardware, networking, mobile, OS, security, and troubleshooting.
What's on the CompTIA A+ (220-1101 and 220-1102)
- Mobile Devices
- Networking
- Hardware
- Virtualization and Cloud
- Hardware and Network Troubleshooting
- Operating Systems
- Security
- Software Troubleshooting
- Operational Procedures
Why it's hard
Two exams to pass, both with performance-based questions (PBQs) early. Students who burn 20 minutes on the first PBQ run out of time on multiple choice they'd otherwise breeze through.
How Fennie helps
Fennie's Daily Plans split content review across both exams and include PBQ-style scenarios with explicit time targets, so you don't blow the clock on the first interactive question.
A sample week of prep
- 01Mon — Hardware: CPU, RAM, storage troubleshooting
- 02Tue — Networking: cable types, IP, troubleshooting
- 03Wed — OS: Windows commands + permissions
- 04Thu — Security: malware + social engineering
- 05Fri — Mobile + virtualization basics
- 06Sat — Full timed practice exam
- 07Sun — Review and regenerate plan
Sample only — your real Fennie plan adapts daily based on what you got wrong, what you ignored, and how close you are to test day.
Frequently asked questions
Should I take both exams in one sitting?
No — they're separate appointments. Most candidates space them 2-4 weeks apart.
Is A+ still worth it in 2026?
Yes as an entry signal for help desk and IT support roles. Skip if you're already a developer or have a CS degree.
Does Fennie cover PBQs?
Yes — Fennie generates scenario-based simulations that mirror the CompTIA PBQ format and explains the correct procedure step-by-step.
