Hi there, Passed the CID exam yesterday (3/2) to complete my CCDP exam. I completely agree with group member, John Neiberger who had posted a message about this exam yesterday. Many questions have multiple correct answers and Cisco wants you to choose the best answer and not just the right answer. Confusing, isn't it? - and that's all the exam is all about. I used the Sybex book by Robert Pajden and it was good - however, just as many members had indicated in the past this book alone is not sufficient enough to pass the exam. I like the simplicity of this book. Hope Robert doesn't get mad at me for this claim! I supplemented the Sybex book with some course material on sections like SNA, NetBios, Apple Talk and X25. My work experience came in very handy. By the way, did I tell you that I passed the exam with the least margin of all the Cisco exams I had taken so far. I scored 776/1000 and the passing score is 755. But, who cares atleast I passed it in the first attempt. The exam is 100 questions, 2 hours and not too many multiple choice questions. Onto the CCNP-ATM specialization before moving to the CCIE written. Good luck to all out there! Cheers, Sundar Palaniappan MCSE, CCNP, CCDP..
