Been out the loop for a minute and come back
and the whole game has changed on me.

I see the 500 series tests have been retired and replaced with the 600 series.
I have the cisco press prep library for the 500 series tests.Can they be used for the new tests? Are there any major changes between the older books and the newer ones.

Also I see the routing tests is gone , did it morph into the new BSCI tests


Finally which order is best to take the tests
at first I was going to study routing and switching together and try to knock them out together.


Holla at me

I'd say it's been a little more than a minute!

Routing did morph into BCSI, but it also added a lot if IS-IS questions - about 40% of my test was IS-IS and BGP.

Switching wasn't bad at all.

I'm studying for Support now, and right after that will do Rem. Access to finish both NP and DP, so I can't help you with those two.

As to the order, go with your strengths and experience. The routing was very challenging, primarily to the amount of questions covering the "new" subject (IS-IS has been around for several years in the carrier world, and is now making its way to the enterprise). But if you've got a lot of real-world experience, it might be the best for you.

HTH...
