You??™re not allowed to
take any reference materials into the exam room, including blank paper. Most testing
centers will provide you with note-taking materials that must remain in the room
where the test is being administered. Some testing centers will provide you with paper
and a pencil; others may provide a small whiteboard slate with an erasable pen.
Let??™s now look at the composition of the Linux+ exam itself.
Exam Makeup
The Linux+ certification is composed of a single exam containing 98 questions. The
exam is divided up into six categories, which CompTIA calls domains. These are
shown in Table I-1.
As you can see in the table, some domains are tested more heavily than others.
When studying, be sure to pay special attention to those domains with the highest
percentage of exam questions!
With this in mind, let??™s now discuss how to prepare for the Linux+ exam.
TABLE I-1
Linux+ Domains
Domain Percentage of Exam Questions
Installation 19 percent
Management 26 percent
Configuration 20 percent
Security 21 percent
Documentation 6 percent
Hardware 8 percent
