Hi,
As I promise this afternoon I am giving my thoguhts about my CCNA test.=20
Passed CCNA 2.0 this morning, if you know your stuff it isn't that =
difficult. I took the ICND instructor led class with Global Knowledge =
and found it very good. The only other study guide I used were Sybex =
book and the Suresh's CCNA Test Kit. Prior to this course I had my MCSE, =
just note that the way questions are asked in the CISCO exam is very =
different from Microsoft, not harder just different which may throw some =
people. The global course gave 40 hours of hands on with a Catalyst =
Switch & a Cisco Router with pretty good labs (you actually learn, not =
like Microsoft Labs)=20
Go to the Cisco site and download the objectives. The objectives outline =
what you need to know. Cisco does not play games with the tests as =
Microsoft does. The test was true to the objectives! Purchased the CCNA =
Preparation Kit from www.sureshshomepage.com and Todd Lammle's Sybex =
book. Suresh has got good amount stuffs really you can make use of it. =
To tell you the truth, out of the 65 questons I was asked at the real =
test, about 40Qs line-by-line were from Suresh's kit. I was really =
zapped.=20
I passed the first time and I have very little (configured two Cisco =
routers) experience. One shortcut was to understand the concepts in the =
foundation summaries in the Certification Guide. Good luck!=20
