Performance-Based Question
Wire Both Ends to T568B
(OBJ.3.2)
Scenario
Work order: a new desk in the sales bay needs a patch cable from the wall jack to the PC. The site standard for this building is T568B, and a PC-to-wall-jack patch cable is an ordinary straight-through cable. You have the cable stripped and the pairs fanned out. Load the conductors into both ends: • Connector A: T568B • Connector B: T568B Pin 1 is on the left, with the plug's clip facing away from you and the contacts toward you. Seat every conductor in both plugs before you submit.
These instructions stay visible beside the lab while you work.You can reread these instructions in the lab at any time.
More free PBQs are open to everyone at /pbq-practice. The full CompTIA A+ library is 260 PBQs and labs.
Then there are the labs.
Build a PC from a bare case: seat the board, the CPU, the cooler, the DIMMs, the NVMe drive and the graphics card, cable the PSU, plug the monitor into the right port, then set the boot device in UEFI. Every step is graded. This one is a recording. You can play the same lab free, no account needed.

A plan with a date on it
Pick an exam date and how long you can study. This is the same arithmetic the app runs on Core 1: every lesson, lab and mock, at your pace.
And a roadmap that shows where you stand.
Every section of the exam in order, with what is done, what is next, and how long the rest takes at your pace. After your mocks, the dashboard turns that into one readiness number per core.
Then practice the interview.
Most people freeze in their first IT interview. Pick the job you're going for (help desk, desktop support, field tech, NOC, junior sysadmin or SOC) and an AI interviewer asks scenario questions, grades every answer out of 5 with feedback, then hands you a scorecard: strengths, gaps, and what to study next. This one is a recording of a help desk interview.
