Passed 100-101 today.

Queue

Well after about 3 months of studying 4 or so hours a night I've managed to pass ICND1.

I used Wendell Odom book for the initial full read.
I took a 2 week class last year as part of a program.
I watched Jeremy Ciora CBT nuggets series.
I used packet tracer for lab.
I used a site referenced on here for subnetting practice.
Finally I used the Pearson practice tests from Odom book.

My breakdown:
Operation of IP Data Networks: 100%
LAN Switching Technologies: 82%
IP Addressing(IPv4/IPv6) 50%?? no IPv6 on exam
IP Routing Technologies: 79%
IP Services: 100%
Network Device Security: 63%
Troubleshooting: 100%

Score 823

Not sure about the 50% on IPv4 I did catch myself on a question using the wrong block size. Luckily, the answer I was getting wasn't listed or for sure I would of chose it. I was using a block size of 6 when it was obviously 8. One of the questions I guessed because I wasn't able to recall the rules on class A for first usable/last usable addresses.

Those of us that have taken the exam can remember the questions and recall why I did poorly in Network Device Security.

Any input on my breakdown would be helpful. Should I review or move on towards ICND2 and use this as a foundation?
