POSSIBLE QUESTIONS WITH ANSWERS (Q&A)
First and foremost, I would like to thank GOD for giving me strength and wisdom to finish this
reviewer. Also my family and loved ones as my inspiration, and of course to all the people
(Instructors/Teachers, Students etc.) who will use this Computer Systems Servicing NC II
Reviewer .I would like to say that I made this reviewer as simple/easy as possible to follow. I
know that some of you already knew the topics here already, but I chose to include those topic
also to make this reviewer complete from the beginning until the end of the assessment. Lastly,
credits to all the owner of the materials that I used in this manual
