I passed CIT this morning as the last one. The CIT exam was the one I felt best prepared for, but passed with a lower score that any of the others. I felt that the questions were worded very badly compared to the other exams, and I was asked questions about specific details that I did not recall having read in any of my books. Anyway, I passed - so I'm happy! A little advise to those of you who are on the first step on the CCNP ladder: 1) Read at least two books for each exam, unless you feel very sure you know everything you need to. A good rule that I have used, is to get a study guide with good reviews. You can search, find and check for those on http://www.amazon.com. A study guide usually uses an easier language that you can better understand if you're reading about the topic for the first time. As a second book, I like to buy a CiscoPress course or exam book, because they are more detail specific regarding what they want you to know for the exam. I do not recommend CiscoPress course or exam books as the only book unless you are good at reading and understanding technical explanations. They can be a little hard to understand if you're not really sure what they're trying to tell you. 2) Download the Cisco exams from Boson. Take all three test exams, and then buy the full version of the one you score lowest in. 3) Look on the Internet for other good helping tools or descriptions. For the CIT, I recommend using the Flash Cards that Priscilla has available (http://www.priscilla.com), and for the BCMSN exam, I recommend my own applications to help you train the commands on the Catalyst 5000 and calculate Multicast layer 2 and 3 addresses. Those two applications can be found by following my RouterChief link below. Now on to CSS1 starting Monday or Tuesday when I expect the book to arrive.

RE: CCNP now, Thank You! [7:21495]
Hi all, I have made a complaint about wording of questions during each Cisco exam I completed. There are some subtle differences in different flavours of English that can create confusion. I would imagine this would even be worse when the questions are translated into other languages.
