I believe my feelings of incompeteness or fear or nervousness stem from the
fact that I am a housewife and have absolutely NO experience in the tech
world. My past jobs were just general working jobs that required no
education. I don't work at this time. I study and go to school and my husband
takes care of me. And it is awsome to be able to understand some of these
things. I have no idea where this will go for me. At the time when this
started, I was going to go back to school and take a few classes with my
husband for "growth purposes" and the school I was attending got the okay to
start cisco classes. I had no computer experience. I had never touched one
except to maybe play a video game at an arcade... I had never heard of cisco
and I went to a seminar which was held to explain the courses and what they
would consist of. I didn't really understand what I was getting into, but I
signed on because it sounded interesting...and then, I was hooked. I took 98,
nt and a hardware class plus the first semester of cisco, which spurred me on
to go buy a bunch of parts last year as an experiment and build the first
computer that my husband and I have ever owned and actually am typing this on.
It took me 2 days to build. It shocked me at how easy it was and that it
actually worked! My husband eventually dropped the classes, but I was hooked
so to speak. I am buying the sybex ccnp books and can't wait to try things in
the real world. Passing this test is a goal of mine.
You guys might be used to this stuff and so are maybe indifferent to what you
actually know and understand. This is thrilling stuff to me. And it nearly
makes me feel priviledged to be able to learn. So many people cannot...
I thank you for the helpful msgs, but now I must study for tomorrow. And
after checking, I was wrong on my averages. sem1 90, sem2 91, sem 3 95, and
sem 4 92, but not quite finished with that one yet. Final to go on Tuesday.
Sincerely,
Jennifer Cribbs
