220-1201 and 220-1202 are the two exam codes for the current CompTIA A+ (V15). 220-1201 is A+ Core 1 and 220-1202 is A+ Core 2; CompTIA awards the single A+ certification only after both exams are passed.
What it means
A+ is a two-exam certification: the "220" series denotes A+, and the V15 release uses 220-1201 (Core 1) and 220-1202 (Core 2). CompTIA's official page lists both as required. Core 1 and Core 2 cover different objective domains, and the credential is awarded only after both are passed.
