I passed the BCMSN test yesterday. Three down, one to go. I'm taking CIT
next Friday. By the way, for those of us in the USA, tests are now $125 as
of November 1. I wish I would have scheduled my CIT test last week, I could
have spent that $25 on a nice steak at the Outback. Oh well.

Hi Folks,
Passed the switching exam today with 846 and what a nasty little,
obscure questioned, badly worded
exam it was. didnt know which way this one was gonna go during the
exam
Anyway thats 2/4 so im gonna tackle BCRAN next. more up my street than
BCMSN.
Regards,
I agree. I took the test at Networkers a couple of weeks ago. Since it was
free (sort of), I wasn't worried too much about failing. Some of the
questions were so poorly written that it seemed like they were translated
from another language.

Hello groupies,
I had been a silent observer in the group study list. Just coming back
after passing the Switching 2.0 exam today. Total 64 questions. Scored
857 to pass. Passing score 699. Here is an overview. If this can be
useful for some other test takers, I would be happy.
Questions were
In electrical terms, leakage can refer to a Capacitor leaking DC voltage
instead of blocking it. There other electrical references to signal
leakage. So it is my guess that whomever coined the phrase "frame leakage"
was familiar with one of the those other electrical references about signal
Just came back from the test center. I found it harder than BSCN too. I
finished with 868, when I got a 908 in BSCN. Some of the Q on trunking were
very confusing.
BTW, what is "frame leakage" ???
Best of luck for those taking the exam.

VLAN leakage is when traffic destined for a certain VLAN (ie: broadcast
traffic) is forwarded to switch ports that aren't assigned to the VLAN. The
term "leaking" is used to describe the condition. I really had to search for
a definition on this one.
Good luck in future exams

John,
Good job on BCMSN. I passed BCRAN about ten days ago and I used BOSON test #1. I
thought is was quite helpful and well worth the
money. I also used the Cisco-Press book (has everything) and the McGraw Hill (easier
to read) to prep for BCRAN.
Only one more (Support) to go for me.it
I'll going to take this exam soon and I think your information will be
very important for all those whoprepared for this exam.
Thanks.

everyone for all the good input and conversation that goes on here, and to

scored an 846, 699 is passing, I found the test to be fairly easy
I've just passed the BCMSN exam I score 814... the
main areas that came up,VLAN, VTP, MLS, Multicasting.I used the
ciscopress BCMSN book and also Boson test question (which wereprobably
harder then the actual exam)... Now to complete the
restI've got the ACRC Exam certification guide
You should have no problem using the ACRC book as
long as you follow the guide fom Cisco. I used the ACRC and the course
books and did just fine. I do think the new BSCN book may have just hit
the bricks but I am not sure.
