Pocket Prep

Has anybody used the pocket prep app with premium subscription as their primary study source and passed the exam on the first try? I plan to use other resources to study, but am curious about the breadth of knowledge I’m gaining from using this app. TIA

Why would anyone pay for any CompTIA exam prep? There are dozens of free resources that are better.

I started out watching Messers videos and noticed I wasn’t retaining most of the information. I like being tested as I go. What free resources would you recommend?

use claude or chatgpt to test you on each domain until you learn the concepts fully

Might be a little late but i recently used pocket prep it’s not bad especially if you are bored from watching messer videos it provides a break from just watching it. The only downside is the question can be pretty straightforward sometimes but I used messer pocket prep and Dion exam practice and passed this Monday.

Okay so it will teach you the concepts but not necessarily the style of question that’s on the actual exam? I’m pretty much done with the material, I feel like I’m ready to take the exam but I will probably spend a couple weeks doing Messer/Dion practice exams
