Jennifer,
I don't think you will have any problem. If you passed all four semester finals with a
grade of 80% or better, you should breeze through the exam. I am surprised that you
indicated that you didn't have any CAT1900 experience. It is one of the required items
for Cisco Networking Academy Labs. We give our students several lab experiments on
that
piece of equipment, including downloading and installing a new IOS from a TFTP server.
The Sybex CCNA book by Lammle is indeed an excellent study reference. We recommend it
to all our students.
Good luck on your exam. I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
