My experience with this exam was years ago, and that was when it was a single test. Now it is two separate exams. I would suggest to read a text book that has the exact exam number on the cover. Also make sure that you are running a Debian flavor and a RedHat flavor system, and work with those machines ... a lot. This exam from CompTIA I found was well written and the scenarios that are given to you test practical knowledge and not just memorizing commands.

I have read the McGraw Hill "All-In-One LPIC-1/CompTIA Linux+ Certification Exam Guide" by Robb Tracy and have started the Sybex "CompTIA Linux+ Complete Study Guide" by Roderick W. Smith. I have downloaded the "official" exam objectives from CompTIA and I have the practice exams from TestKing. My problem is this - about 50% of the practice questions from the TestKing LX0-101 exam are not covered in either of the books; about 90% of the questions from the TestKing LX0-102 practice exams are not covered in either book. What I would like to know from anyone who has taken the exam is this - do I study and prepare from the books and the CompTIA exam objectives or the TestKing questions? Which is more representative of the actual questions I will see on the exam?
