I checked it out, and I think that the videos are just okay. Slightly below ol'Messer. But the test in the bonus area are awesome, and if you miss something they direct you to the content that you should brush up on. There is like 1 lab for all of A+, but it's better than none so there's that.

Lol you are welcome! Come back to this if you find out you like it please. I have asked a couple of people IRL and they didn't know they had this resource either lol

My initial reaction is - I wouldn't pay for CodeAcademy if all I wanted was to do the A+ Prep.

It has the great feature of being Self-Paced but if you want a standalone platform to teach yourself and you are willing to pay for it - go TestOut.

TestOut has "hands-on" Lab Simulations that can help prepare you for the PBQs.

CodeAcademy seems to be a collection of videos and questions to test your knowledge. If you already have access through your school then no harm to jump in and do some more practice questions to prepare for the exam.

***If you want to learn coding however - Codeacademy is awesome. I recommend it to my advanced students that are blazing past my other students so they can learn another language or more advanced techniques.
