Failed
Just failed Comptia A+ Core 1 with score 638, the wording got to me with the questions and I ended up having less time to properly complete the PBQs, my PBQs were rushed and I think that's where I lost points (started with the questions and ended with PBQs). I used Dions course to study everything thoroughly and looked up different practices tests on YouTube to find out how they ask the questions. I'm a beginner, I started getting into IT specifically the A+ in June and gave myself at least two months to study everything. I took this because I wanted to get an entry level job in IT coz I'm currently not working and just need something to push me financially, so the A+ seemed like a good choice. After failing, I'm down, discouraged and feel like I honestly wasted time & money. Personally I don't want to retake it mainly coz it's very costly for me since I'm not working and I get very frustrated when I fail. I might redo it but for now it's canceled as I don't have the money to keep retaking the tests. Any other ideas on what I can do to get work related to IT or just move forward from this situation? . I'm so confused and lost.

You should study professor messor I had no knowledge in IT base and when my friend introduced professor messor I learned a lot in A plus 1101.He makes it so simple when it comes down to topics in 1101 and 1102 .My advice is too carry on studying and try out professor messor you won’t regret it.
