The questions you are actually thinking.

Is Revy's Tech Journey affiliated with CompTIA?

No. Revy's Tech Journey is an independent study platform and is not endorsed by or affiliated with CompTIA. CompTIA certification names and exam codes identify the public exam objectives RTJ content is tagged to.

What does RTJ include for CompTIA exam study?

RTJ combines objective guides with How to do it steps, answer explanations, inline Field Notes, help desk tickets with simulated consoles, hands-on labs, PBQs, and full-length timed practice exams across CompTIA A+, Network+, and Security+.

Does RTJ have hands-on labs?

Yes. 65 hands-on labs span CompTIA A+, CompTIA Network+, and CompTIA Security+. Each is a procedure from documentation, worked step by step in a simulated tool. 52 are free with no account, and the other 13 are included with Academy, Lifetime, the teacher plans, and school and district licenses. They are not exam questions and not a score predictor.

What is the Mastery Index?

The Mastery Index summarizes correctness across your RTJ question history by objective and shows an evidence-quality label. It is an internal, uncalibrated study signal, not a pass predictor or exam-booking threshold.

How does RTJ build an exam-date study plan?

Set an exam date and RTJ builds a day-by-day plan from the exam's published domain weights and your objective-level practice history. The plan is a study aid, not a pass prediction.

What can I use on the free tier?

The free tier includes unlimited Study and Flashcards, one Adventure lesson per track, five Simulator tickets per day, 52 hands-on labs with no account, and one free full-length Practice Exam attempt per CompTIA exam (A+ Core 1, A+ Core 2, Network+, and Security+). No credit card is required.
