Newly Minted CCNA here.....Passed ICND2 today!

CCIE Wanna Be

Although I passed, I did not manage time very well and this almost cost me in the end, I had to guess on the last few questions. Luckily I had enough questions correct to get the coveted "Congratulation you have passed!" at the end of the exam.


Study:

OCG for ICND2 - Needs to be update to include more stuff about RSTP and STP
Chris Bryant Videos for ICND2 - same as above
Boson Netsim 10 and ExSim Max Practice Exams (gave me good understanding of my weak areas).
TechExams Forum - actually how I knew to go over RSTP

I also went through the Exam objectives and answered every question and used it as a study guide.


I don't necessarily think that ICND2 is harder than ICND1 (this is subjective), but the extra 15 minutes you get on ICND1 does make in mentally less ominous.

Only advice I can really give at this point is to manage your time and practice your troubleshooting skills, I kept getting tripped up on simple things (wasting valuable time)

Oh well I guess, a pass is a pass. I will let it soak in. If I can be of some help let me know (NDA in mind of course).


Next up either CCNP|R&S or CCNA|Sec

Later

Good job on the pass! In the end, what matters is that you passed. Now to move onto the next!
