I remember when I was studing for both my CCNA and CCNP that I checked out some BOSON, Sybex and Cisco tests (Cisco ones came with CCNP Certification Library).
IMHO, I think that BOSON is very very poor. Sybex seems to be a little better, but still, I think that Cisco tests are the ones that are more reallistic to the actual tests. I believe that nobody better than Cisco to know a test of its own, right?
