Free planning tool

Build a practical CompTIA A+ study plan.

Turn your exam date and available time into a simple outline you can adjust as you learn.

Build your outline

Start with the time you actually have.

This is a practical planning aid, not a readiness assessment or a scientifically personalized schedule.

How many minutes can you study most days?
Where are you now?
Which A+ exams are you still preparing for?

Check one or both. If you check both, the outline splits the time before the date below across Core 1 and Core 2 domains. Leave both unchecked if you are not sure yet; the outline then covers both exams.

Make the plan useful

A good schedule can change with your results.

Start broad, notice recurring misses, and move study time toward the concepts that need it.

30 days

Keep the first pass focused

Use a short foundation period, then spend more time on practice and rationale review.

6 weeks

Leave room to revisit

A longer runway makes it easier to cycle back to missed ideas after a delay.

Any timeline

Protect the final stretch

Keep the last days for mixed review, recent misses, and a calm test-day routine.
