Pass it on the first try.
Original practice questions for CompTIA, Microsoft Azure, AWS, and Cisco. Every answer comes with an explanation that teaches the concept behind it, not just the letter. No dumps.
10 free questions per cert. No account, no card.
Employees report a certificate warning on the internal payroll site. A packet capture shows two different MAC addresses replying to ARP requests for the default gateway. Which attack is most likely underway?
“Correct answer: B” teaches you nothing.
Answer this one. You get the concept being tested, why the right answer follows from it, and why each wrong option is wrong, including the question it would be right for. That last part is where the learning happens.
A security team must decide which virtual networks require DDoS Network Protection. Which virtual networks should receive this protection?
Know which domain is costing you the exam.
Every answer is scored by domain and weighted by the official exam percentages, so your readiness reflects the exam you are actually sitting. Below 60 percent it says so plainly.

Questions, answered.
Are these real exam questions?
No, and that is the point. Every question is original, written from the vendor's published exam objectives. We never copy, paraphrase, or imitate real exam content. Using leaked questions breaks your certification agreement and can get your credential revoked.
How much does it cost?
Practicing 10 questions per cert is free with no account. A free account gives you 30 questions a day per cert. A single cert's full bank is $29 once. Pro is $14 a month or $89 a year for every certification. Two single certs cost $58, so if you are studying three or more exams, Pro pays for itself.
Do I have to pay to see the explanations?
Never. The explanation is the whole value, so it is free on every question at every tier, including anonymous. We limit how many questions you answer per day. We never limit what you can learn from them.
Can I practice without an account?
Yes. You get 10 questions per certification with no account, plus all the sample questions on every cert page, with full explanations. A free account raises that to 30 questions a day per cert and saves your progress.
Which certifications are covered?
CompTIA (A+, Network+, Security+, Linux+), Cisco CCNA, Microsoft Azure (AZ-900, AZ-104, SC-300, SC-900), AWS (Cloud Practitioner, Solutions Architect Associate), ISC2 (CC, CISSP), and ITIL 4 Foundation. Every certification page shows its own verified question count, so you can see exactly how deep a bank is before you spend anything. The catalog grows continuously.
Will there be countdown timers or fake sales?
No, and there never will be. FirstTry is built to be a calm study tool, the opposite of a discount course store. No countdown timers, no fake urgency, no popups, no mascots. The only counter on the site, founding lifetime spots left, is a real number from our database.
