    I just took the 640-554 and failed it. I also felt like there were topics that weren't covered in the guide or videos. What topics did you find or how did you find them when comparing the current cert and the new one? It seems confusing that new objectives would be applied to a current exam.

    I used Official Cert guide, CBT nuggets, Packet tracer, VIRL for CCP and ASA labs, and Pearson exam simulator that came with guide.

    good job!!!

    Did the CBT nuggets come in very handy? Reason I'm asking is that video is for the old exam and I thought about viewing it but wasnt sure if it would be very relevant and what parts, if any, to skip.
    Thanks.

    The CBT Nuggets videos were very resourceful and handy in preparation for the exam. I did have to seek study guides as the content blueprint of the exam changed slightly with some new topics that WGU didn't cover or have much information on certain topics.

    I found the CCNA: Security harder only because of the score threshold to pass it. As far as the content going back to your original question I found it easier personally. The CCNA was tougher only because I was new at that time to networking so I had more information to retain and learn through books and labs.
