Taking the CompTIA A+ Core 1 exam in Kuwait City
The CompTIA A+ Core 1 is the same exam wherever you sit it. CompTIA publishes one blueprint, one time limit and one scoring model, so there is no Kuwait City-specific version to prepare for. What changes from city to city is only how you book and where you sit.
Test centre or online from Kuwait City?
- Test centre: CompTIA delivers this exam through Pearson VUE. Search Pearson VUE's test-centre finder for Kuwait City when you book; centre availability changes, so we do not list addresses here.
- Online: you can also sit it online from home or the office through Pearson VUE OnVUE, which avoids travel within the city. You need a quiet private room, a webcam and a stable connection.

Before you book from Kuwait City
- Make sure the name on your CompTIA account matches your government ID exactly; a mismatch can stop you being admitted on the day.
- Decide between a test centre and online delivery before you pick a date, because the booking flow and the rules on the day differ.
- If you sit online, run the system check on the computer and network you will actually use, well before exam day.
- Book a slot in Arabia Standard Time (UTC+3) that suits you, and leave time for check-in before the start.
