A+ Core 2 · CipherExam
Practice A+ Core 2 the way CompTIA grades it.
Most A+ Core 2 questions aren't asking what you know — they're asking what you do FIRST. Every CipherExam answer is explained through the Exam Lens — what step of the CompTIA troubleshooting model is this? — plus the Bloom's-level reasoning behind the question. Knowing the fix isn't enough. Knowing the order is.

Plenty of A+ Core 2 candidates know the material and still miss the scenario questions. The reason isn't a knowledge gap — it's a frame gap. CompTIA grades whether you follow its six-step troubleshooting methodology in order: identify the problem, establish a theory, test the theory, establish a plan, verify full functionality, and document. The "right" technical fix can still be the wrong answer if it's the wrong step. Practice tools that only drill facts can't close that gap.
Three things compound for A+ Core 2
- Bloom's-classified practice. Every A+ Core 2 question is tagged by cognitive level. You see whether you're nailing easy "remember" questions but missing the "apply"- and "analyze"-level troubleshooting scenarios that decide the real exam.
- Exam Lens explanations. Every right and wrong answer is walked through the same prompt — what step of the CompTIA troubleshooting model is this? — anchored to the official CompTIA six-step methodology and the A+ 220-1102 objectives, so you internalize the order, not just the facts.
- 90-question Full Mock with PBQ support. Same length and pacing as the actual exam — 90 questions in 90 minutes — and it supports the question types you'll actually face: multiple-choice, matching, and performance-based questions (PBQs), not just text.

Frequently asked
- How long is the A+ Core 2 exam, and what's the format?
- The real 220-1102 exam is up to 90 questions in 90 minutes. Our Full Mock matches that — 90 questions in 90 minutes — and supports the same question types: multiple-choice, matching, and performance-based questions (PBQs).
- Is this aligned to the current A+ Core 2 objectives?
- Yes — the question library is built against CompTIA's published A+ 220-1102 exam objectives, including the six-step troubleshooting methodology that the scenario questions lean on.
- Do you support performance-based questions (PBQs)?
- Yes. PBQs are supported natively in the Full Mock — not flattened into plain multiple-choice — so you practice them the way they appear on exam day.
- What makes A+ Core 2 hard?
- The troubleshooting scenarios. Several answers will all look technically correct — the exam is testing whether you follow CompTIA's six-step methodology in order and pick the right FIRST step, not just any valid fix. That's exactly what the Exam Lens explanation surfaces on every question.
- Can I cancel anytime?
- Yes. The 7-day trial never charges a card. Pro is month-to-month or yearly; cancel from your dashboard.
