A+ Core 1 and Core 2 CertMaster Learn Custom Quiz Question Issues

Is it just me, or are others out there seeing odd questions in the new A+ Core 1 and Core 2 CertMaster Learn courseware when creating custom quizzes? See examples below. It's as if someone was pulling over a database of questions and forgot to include important items.

Yeah, same here.
I feel that since CompTIA and TestOut merged, someone had been failing in proofreading the questions.
Either that the options are incorrect, or that the answers are just wrong.

It is not limited to A+. This goes across many courses. It is also seen on end-of-lab questions and quizzes.
We used to have a way to report these issues directly on the platform.
Unfortunately, the reporting mechanism seem to have been lost since we moved to the new platform.comptia.org

It appears to me that it is somehow pulling questions from sources it shouldn't like some of the ones OP shown were used inside of labs.

I agree, CompTIA seems to have made it more difficult to report errors but it is still there. 1757030000667.png
 
And CompTIA is silent on this...shame.
As we all know in IT, bugs can creep in when systems get redesigned. Only schools creating custom quizzes using CompTIA's question bank are affected. And CompTIA is actively working with our curriculum department...I just wish they would prioritize A+ over other projects.

If the powers that be read these threads, I think a courseware forum for content issues/updates/questions would be a very valuable addition.

Thank you, Bruce. I agree 100% about the courseware forum for content issues/updates/questions.
