How to build a study deck for A+ v15

Studying for 220-1101 and 220-1102 means memorizing a wide range of hardware, networking, operating system and security details, and the terms overlap across both exams. A CompTIA A+ v15 flashcards deck built from your own course material keeps that detail tied to the lessons you actually attended.

  • Separate decks for Core 1 and Core 2 so progress tracks each exam.
  • Port numbers, RAID levels and troubleshooting steps are good candidates for short question-and-answer cards.
  • Use the short answer quiz mode to test recall before you flip a card.
  • Re-check cards after each practice test and delete any that repeat.
Example CompTIA A+ Core 1 flashcards
What port does HTTPS use by default?TCP 443, because HTTPS is HTTP carried over TLS on that port.
What does DHCP do?It automatically assigns IP addresses and other network settings to devices on a network.
What is the difference between RAID 0 and RAID 1?RAID 0 stripes data across drives for speed with no redundancy; RAID 1 mirrors data for redundancy.
What is an ESD strap used for?It grounds the technician to prevent electrostatic discharge from damaging components.
What does the chkdsk command do?It checks a disk's file system for errors and can repair them when run with the right options.

Reads your own material

Upload PDFs, PowerPoint slides, DOCX files, plain text or photos of pages. Images are read with text recognition.

Spaced repetition built in

Cards you miss come back sooner and cards you know fade into longer intervals, so review time goes to what you forget.

Quizzes and mind maps too

Switch to multiple choice, true/false or short answer questions with explanations, or map the objectives as a mind map.

How it works

Upload your objectives or notes

Add the CompTIA objectives PDF, your course slides, or photos of class notes for the Core 1 or Core 2 exam.

Generate your flashcards

DeckOwl creates question and answer cards from your text. Edit or delete any card before you study.

Review on a schedule

Study in the browser with spaced repetition and focus on the terms you still miss before exam day.

Start with one deck per exam so your progress on Core 1 does not get mixed with Core 2. Generate cards from each chapter or objective section, then remove anything you already know cold so review time goes to the gaps.

Check your deck against the current CompTIA objectives before scheduling your test. Cards are only as accurate as the source text, so correct any wording that does not match the version you are studying.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for CompTIA A+ Core 1?

There is no fixed number, but one card per term or procedure you cannot yet recall reliably is a practical target. Generate from each objective section, then trim the cards you already know.

Should I keep Core 1 and Core 2 flashcards in separate decks?

Yes, since 220-1101 and 220-1102 are separate exams with different objectives. Separate decks make it easier to see which exam needs more review.

Can I use the official CompTIA objectives PDF as a source?

Yes, upload the PDF and DeckOwl generates cards from its text. Compare the output with the current objectives, because the cards reflect only what you uploaded.

Is exporting my flashcards to Anki free?

No, Anki, CSV, PDF and DOCX export are included in the Plus plan at $99.90/year or $9.99/month. The Free plan includes 3 generations per month and study in the browser.
