Practice test


Hi.
I'm planning on taking the Linux+ in a couple of months. I've been studying books and other materials on and off for a certain time.
Now I'm polling you people to tell me which practice test would you recommend me to buy, that be the closest to the actual test without being a "dump", and following the objectives for the certification, and a presentation of the questions (wording,etc) in a comfortable way for a non guru.

C'mon!

C'mon, isn't anybody into the simultests to improve their chances with the exam?
Or is just plainly that there are not enough simulation tests out there to choose from?

IMHO there's really no need to take a simulation... the best thing that you can do to pass this exam is make sure all your basic skills are brushed-up on... the questions in the test are VERY straight-forward multiple choices... to brush-up before the linux+ test i went through this very basic IBM tutorial and it was actually quite useful:

http://www-106.ibm.com/developerwork...-lpir21-i.html

anyways, if you simply wanna get an idea of the wording and stuff of the questions i googled this site:

http://www.cert21.com/CompTIA-exam.html

seems like they offer a free demo which you can check-out...

i've never tried those demos so i can't vouch for them, though...

The demos are ok but they actually cover the 2001 objectives not the 2004 objectives. I take them for review but I wouldn't buy them until they are updated to reflect the new objectives.
There is also http://www.qod.us/index.php?action=l which sends you a question of the day to your email. This actually does cover the 2004 objectives. I'm sure the demos will be updated soon.
