The short answer is “a maximum of 90” but it’s a little more complicated than that. CompTIA does not give out exact numbers for any of their exams, only a maximum number. For the A+ certification exams (the current versions are exams 220-1001 and 220-1002) that maximum is set to 90 questions for an exam duration of 90 minutes so at most an average of one question per minute.
Experience tells us that it seems the actual number of questions on these exams is in the low 80s. Expect about 82 – 83 questions. In part, this is due to the fact that CompTIA has batteries of questions in a question bank that the exam is pulled from. The objective is to make sure every candidate’s exam is at least to some degree different from the next candidates. This is one of the ways CompTIA protects the integrity of its exams. No matter what the actual number of questions end up being on your exam, you will still have 90 minutes. There is zero variability on the time you get to sit for the exam.
The job titles below are not exhaustive but rather a short sample of actual titles held by professionals currently working in the field with the indicated certifications. In a similar way, the cities listed are just a small sample of cities with a large IT presence, and therefore have a high concentration of CompTIA IT jobs.
All the reported salaries are representative of individuals with experience in the IT field of less than a year, to over twenty years (any amount of experience). Although this doesn’t narrow down the expected salaries for each period of experience, the distribution is displayed in the pie charts below where inferences can be made as to the expected salary by years of experience based on the range of salaries.
