| Hi All,
If you look at my previous post regarding the CCNP certfications i have asked the cisco support people and here is what they had to say -
"Any exams that have already been completed, such as the 640-604, will remain applicable to the CCNP certification track. Candidates will be required to take the new version of the remaining exams to achieve certification."
My query to the CISCO support people:
Hi,
Although there is a post about the mixing of ccnp certfications. It is not very clear.
Is it possible to mix the old ccnp pattern(ie.640-xxx) with the newly announced one.
For example if i take the existing 640-604 Switching exam now and mix it with the new pattern by taking 643-801,643-821,643-831.
would that be acceptable?
Kindly clarify in this regard.
Thank you

| Yes. The MCNS 3.0 already has some SECUR questions mixed in. They don't count toward your score, BUT you don't know which ones they are!
There are some discussions about the changes on the CCSP forum.

| Hi,
Don't worry. No exam you passed go wasted. You need not to appear again.
You can very well mix-match the new as well as the old exams. Cisco normally gives you a stipulated time of approximately 1 year to complete this mix-n-matching practice. After this period you are no logner eligible for claiming credits for the old exams you have passed. You need to get into the new versions completely forgetting the old exams you passed.
So don't panic! But beware the new exams might cover new topics end up in re-reading the whole syllabus again! Also they migt change the certification titles like CSS1 turned into CCSP recently.
thanks |
