| Hi everyone,
I got an email from some site saying that the new CCNP are suppose to start July. Is that true. If not do you have a date of when it is suppose to start. | |

| I heard something along those lines. I took the beta for switching back in Feb. and am awaiting the results.  | |

| Cisco has decided to include simulations on the tests, the same way that Novell and Microsoft have theirs but they will do it one test at a time till all the tests have simulations. They started with CCNA, which is now 640-607 instead of 640-507. If you registered to take the CCNA before 12 March then you would be able to take the 640-507 however if it is on or after that date then you have to take 640-607.
The next tests that will have simulations are likely to be the CCNP. I guess they will start with Routing and make their way up. When will it happen? We won't know until you try to register for a test. | |

| I just registered for the 640-503 exam. The last date available for that exam is june 21,2002. So you better hurry up if you want to take this test.  HTH | |

| Thanks for the info Xblackzerox. I haven't decided whether to wait for the new exam or not. It's kind of cool to be one of the first to pass the new exam but I may be ready to take it before the 21st of June. | |

| Ralph,
Study OSPF and BGP (especially) and then EIGRP. You need 5 areas strong to pass, this is the key. Subnetting and the extended parts are easy, if you know the basics. Hit the protocols: OSPF and BGP HARD!! The CISCO PRESS BOOK is the tool you NEED. EXAM CRAM is NOT enough, beleive me I know !
Good Luck. | |

| it isn't available on cisco's website. You would have to register to find out. (that is how I found out ). I passed the rest of the exams about a year ago then I decided to go back to school and finish my bachelor's and now, since I just graduated in april, I'll be taking the last exam on june 20th. | |
