Transcender Practice Test A+ 220-901

---

I have a question about an answer that was marked incorrect on the Transcender Practice Test for the A+ 220-901.

The question was: Susan called the help desk to ask which type of BIOS password she should configure to restrict access to the BIOS setup program. Which password type would you explain?
Supervisor password
Administrator password
User password
System password

I chose Administrator password and that answer was marked incorrect. I just re-checked the transcript for the A+ 220-901 "Configure BIOS & UEFI Settings" and it clearly states that the password used to restrict access to the BIOS setup program is the Administrator password. Through study using Mike Meyer's books and another by Faithe Wempen, I seem to recall that one of them stated that Administrator/Supervisor password are both correct depending on the BIOS manufacturer.

Is this an error in the test or am I not understanding something correctly?
Thanks, Calla

Hey Calla,

This is (in my opinion) a very picky question, of which I do not believe you are going to find on the A+ test. I have dealt with this question in the past. Supervisor/Administrator are the right answer(s):

Here is a screenshot from Wiki How: http://bit.ly/2mivv9R

You can see that it does say Supervisor password but I do believe that is a little picky.....

I hope this helps!

Thanks Wes!
