| Passed the CCNA yesterday. Score of 923.
Used the Todd Lammle book and the Cisco ICND Course Material.
Overall impressions of the Exam.
Simulation were easy.
Know the OSI Model and Subnetting.
Get as much hands on as possible. | |

| Congrats Blowfish! If u don't mind.. can u explain what did you encounter in your CCNA exam? I'm not too sure in the change of the exam format? what I understand is there is an additional simulation part.. so how many objective questions and how many simulation questions?
Cheers | |

Here are a couple of articles that will help you on the Exam the first one is an Interview with the CISCO Certification Director and the second article talks about the test in great detail I am suprised how much detail he actually goes into definately worth reading.

| Congratulations on passing !!!
I'm taking the 607 at the end of the month,and like most people, finding it tough to retain those facts.Just like to say that this page is excellent.I'm new to the IT industry and CISCO certifications and find the help people give each other invaluable.Too many people are reluctant to pass on tips/information, using the "Well no-one helped me" excuse.Once I've passed this exam (or should i say IF ??)i hope i can pass on anything that helps. | |

| Great job! I know it feels great! What are you doing next? | |

| I'm in the same situation as Limey and would also like to thank everyone for their help and insight. I'm looking to take the test soon and will give some feedback once I pass.
I'm studying the Lammle book and using the Virtual E-Trainer from Sybex.
Once again, Congratulations BLOWFISH !! | |

Thanks it does feel great. I need to take 70-217 and 70-219 to complete by MCSE 2000 and then it's on to the CCA exam. If we decide to move to all Cisco equipment at work I will more than likely be going for my CCNP.
Later,
Blowfish! | |

I borrowed the ICND course material from a buddy of my who had the offical course. I took a course from a local training company in my area, but it was not an oiffical CISCO
course. The course consisted of a 150 pages of slides and 3 days of some guy reading them to the class a total wate of time.
The ICND course material and the Todd Lammle book are your best bet. The Lammle book is enoughy to pass, but if you don't have any routers to practice with buy some router sim software. I have 2 CISCO 2500 routers and a few CISCO 1600 and 1000 series routers to practice with. I would say I spent a total of 50 Hours of prep time on the
exam. I also have some field experience with CISCO routers and switches. | |

Cool, that works for me. At least I know I have a chance if I cant get my hands on a real router (cant afford class or routers right now). Now I just have to get my hands on the ICND course material....
Thanx |
