I would rate them in the following order with #1 being most difficult:

1. BSCI
2. BCRAN
3. CIT
4. BCMSN

The order most people take them in is:

1. BSCI
2. BCMSN
3. BCRAN
4. CIT

I took them in this order, however, the only thing I would absolutely
recommend is taking CIT last.

Good luck.

Everyone is different. Personally, I found the BCMSN more difficult than
the BCSI. If I were to do it over I would do
BCMSN
BCRAN
BCSI
CIT

But you could do the first three in any order really, that just seems the
most logical to me

Routing was especially hard for me because I had limited exposure to
advanced routing protocols like OSPF and BGP. There is an excellent
tutorial on CCO regarding BGP that I used and it really turned the
trick for me. It can be found here:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk3... 800c95bb.shtml

I used the Lammle(sp?) books, and I found that the BCRAN book, as well
as the routing book, were not in depth enough for the exams. That is
why I turned to CCO. It is my opinion that the white papers, case
studies, config guides, etc. on Cisco's website are far superior to
any of the "study guides" you can buy.
I guess switching was easy(er) for me simply because I had been doing
a lot of work on various vendors' switches at the time and the
concepts (STP,etc.) were just second nature.
CIT is somewhat difficult because it basically encompasses all of the
concepts covered in the other exams. That's why you should probably
take it last.
