Most prep teaches you hardware specs. The 220-1201 and 220-1202 exams test whether you can resolve BCD boot loader crashes, configure RAID arrays, and remediate OS malware infections. CertsTutor builds those hands-on skills in interactive performance based questions, flashcards, and scenario-based questions, then tracks your retention until you’re exam-ready.

Diagnose motherboard BIOS/UEFI boot order, RAID array status, and corrupted MBR / BCD parameters.
"Excellent triage! Rebuilding the BCD restored the boot loader signature without destroying user disk partitions."
Generic question banks sell static lists. CertsTutor sequences hands-on practice so knowledge holds until exam day.
Build your foundational knowledge with 1000 realistic scenario-based questions. Every single choice includes full rationale breakdowns for right and wrong options.
Prove your hands-on execution under real exam timing: Workstation boot, RAID setup, Network config, Malware removal. 18 simulated labs across all exam domains.
Lock it in. Spaced-repetition algorithms resurface 720 key concepts right as your memory decay reaches its retention window.
Any AI can explain a BCD boot loader. Coach TIA knows you missed it twice this week, knows which wrong answer you picked both times, and knows it's worth 28% of your exam.
Tracks every objective separately, so answers target what you actually got wrong — not the general topic.
Doesn't just mark it wrong. Explains why the distractor was tempting, and whether you've fallen for it before.
Readiness scored per domain against CompTIA weights. You'll know when to book instead of guessing.
We weight your prep harder on the heaviest exam domains so you spend study time where points live.

We're not the cheapest. Free video courses exist and they're genuinely good — Professor Messer's are better than most paid content. What none of them give you is a simulator for the questions that fail people, and a tutor that knows your scores.
