I just took it last weekend. Like John Allhiser says a lot of EIGRP, OSPF,

Networks book for the updated Cisco exam?
This is tough but as I know now there are no books for the BSCN. Except for those in
the course which I have. But I am using them now and then have promissed them to
someone else. If you are in great need of this info try the router exam outline from
cisco, you can find the material covered
You can get all the information from the BSCN book, directly off the Cisco
website. Search for "Configuring IP routing Protocols," "Varience,""BGP,"
and the OSPF design guide by Sam Halibi. The only other info was route
summarization, and VLSM.

For those who have taken the BSCN:
What kind of questions are on the test? (NOTE: I am asking generalities,
not specifics-don't want to violate the Cisco Agreement)
