I thought you meant you had passed the real thing. It looks like you have a lot of tests to do before you do the real 2 exams.

I so totally agree with you I went that route and wrote both exams one in the morning and the other in the afternoon, passed both. It's just a pity I have no experience and can't find a job despite many interviews.

Be persistent - getting your first IT job is likely the hardest thing you'll ever do. Once you build some experience, it's SO much easier getting your 2nd, 3rd, and 4th IT jobs!

Windows is very user-friendly.
Linux is user friendly too, but chooses his friends very carefully..

of course you have to pay for it, compTIA don't make exams for free.

Have you passed the real essentials exam, you do know you have to pass two exams to get the A+.

Um... everyone has to pay for the exam. It's a CompTIA exam, not a school exam. Why should CompTIA care how old you are or whether you're in school?
