Passed my CCNA 200-120 today!

Just passed with an 849! Passing was 825! Didn't think I was going to make it!


That said, I used Laz's course on Udemy, CBT Nuggets, Official Cert Guides and the Exam Cram books. I also used the following sites to lab: Free Cisco Catalyst Switch Lab and CCNA Routing & Switching Lab Workbook | Free CCNA Workbook

This site was also super helpful for subnet practicing: IP Subnet Practice

All in all, this test was a beast. It made taking Security+ feel like a first grade math test. Glad it's over with.


On to GCIH!

    Proverbs 6:6-11Go to the ant, you sluggard! Consider her ways and be wise, Which, having no captain, Overseer or ruler, Provides her supplies in the summer, And gathers her food in the harvest. How long will you slumber, O sluggard?
    When will you rise from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to sleep, So shall your poverty come on you like a prowler And your need like an armed man.

    Nope, I take all the questions in the exam books and make them into multi-choice flashcards in Anki. I figure if I'm going to spend money on a test, I'd rather take the actual test and fail it instead of spend it on a practice test.

    Congrats!!! How was it compared to the 100-101? Not asking specifics, just overall difficulty.

    Congrats! I can imagine, the full CCNA exam has always been a beast. But I'd rather tackle that one exam than the two.

    Laz was more entertaining, CBT was more informational, so its hard to say. I think CBT Nuggets will get you further, but Laz brings you that last step.

    Didn't take the 100-101, only took the 200-120.

    Nice site. I'm able to solve all problems generated in about 30 seconds. Do you think this will be enough for the test, or should I be using other resources for subnet practice?

    Bump - Will those type of questions suffice for exam readiness? Or will I need to be proficient with more challenging questions, such as ones found at subnettingquestions.com
