CompTia A+ question

sample text · April 27, 2018

okay,so here's the question:

which book should I buy for CompTiaA+?The book from Mcgraw Hill have CompTia Platinum partnership,the rest are with Gold partnership.I reviewed the McGraw Hill version and it has different information,compared to the Pearson version...........for example in Pearson version they have a chapter about AGP(Accelerated Graphical Port),but McGraw Hill version doesn't have it...well isn't this dumb?I can learn 1 thing from Mcgraw Hill,and I can learn another stuff from Pearson..I have to read both books or what?God knows if the exams will have a questions about AGP,but even if they don't,at least it is not unnecessary to know things outside the exam.So in short term:there are different books for the same exam and many of them provide different information.....what am I supposed to do?If I didn't review the Pearson version of CompTia A+,I wouldn't even know that AGP exists lol

This seems to be a bit of an issue with the CompTIA exam books.

I had to read two books by different vendors for my Security+ cert. And, each one had some info that the other did not.

Still, you can pass with using one book as study material. Best thing to do though, is watch Professor Messer or CBTNuggets videos to get the extra info that the book missed.
