  1. I passed both of my A+ exams a couple of weeks ago with ease. Thank you for your videos, found them to be very helpful. I combined an A+ study guide with watching your videos and then used a test simulator for review. That seems to be a winning strategy for me and I plan on doing the same w/ studying for the net+ exam.

    1. What simulator did you use and how much it cost. Do you have any A+ Exam Cram question and answer book.

  2. i have just passed my 220-701 today and the only study material i used was your videos, thankyou proffesor messer

  12. Professor Messor is the greatest. I am attending ITT-Tech and one of my classes is Intro. to Personal Computers. Let me just say thank you professor. Without your videos, I would have gotten a bad grade on my exam, but thanks to you I was able to score a 84(B) on my test. Also thank you for taking the time out to web conference with me and walk me step by step on how to correctly deal with that buggy Windows2000 problem. You really have a gift of explaining things in simple terms.

  13. Plan on taking the A+ certification this summer, so needless to say that I received  many recommendations to this website. you must be doing a good job!

  16. I am pleased to say, I have passed the 701 the other week and the 702 yesterday with scores of 770 and 900 severally, and I just want to say a million thanks to you “Professor Messer.” Your video training did help a lot (More than you can achieve in colleges) on top the A+ Group Study as well. I also read the Exam Cram Pearson’s book just to focus the exam Q&As for a few days before the exam. And now I am off to Network+. It was a really excellent piece of training package, and You were very helpful with everything. Professor Messer- thanks a million!

  17. Just passed the practical applications. There’s just too much to read with text books and I’m glad I found this site at the last moment. Watched every video in the practical applications and it helped me a lot. Questions coming up on the test were so familiar, and it’s all thanks to this amazing site and Professor Messer. Thanks Professor!

  18. Thanks Professor Messer. I am already a computer technician and your videos are all that is needed to PASS the exam. I passed. You made it look so easy.

  20. Just passed both the 701 and 702!! Thank you Prof Messer for all of your FREE study videos, as they were a huge complementary to my reading. Your website was recommended to me, and I will certainly recommend it to others! God bless!

  21. I have to agree with the sentiment of all the others, Professor. I will never be able to thank you enough for the hard work you’ve done to help all of us future IT people. I faithfully used your videos to supplement my classroom “instruction”. I was the only one who used your site, and scored the highest grade (758) of all the people in my class (including an IT guy who has been in the field for a long time) on the 701 test. I take the 702 exam in 3 days, and hope to continue my A+ domination. Thanks again, Brian From Shelbyville, Ky
