esr0159

finished the exam already only saw my marks (23) but no grade...I guess cisco will still send another email out.

Got the email to take the assessment. Has anyone taken the assessment?

I just did my assessment and got 25/30. Guess I'll wait to hear back, they said it would take a week to hear whether you're accepted into the course.

Has anyone been accepted already and started?

msg4wale

Just took my assessment. had 88%.

muneebkalathil

Completed the assessment. Got 24.5/30.
Some questions are real tricky.

E Double U

27.10 out of 30

Got one partially correct that I should've known better. Another one I simply clicked the wrong button by mistake lol. Oh well.

Queue

Did fairly well. Should definitely be accepted if it is going off questions answered correctly.

I'm so lucky to have been studying Linux for the past few months.

Also guessed correctly on a couple, I just went off what the scope of the exam is and chose the answer appropriately.

Conquererspledge

Just did mine. 27.5/30 for a score of 91.67/100. I felt like the questions were extremely basic in nature.

nomoretime

Got mine at 2:56 in the morning today, got a 25.17/30. We are going to wait now.

jacksonr

Just applied. Had the confirmation email and will get an update within 10 days apparently.
Sit and wait and carry on with my CCENT in the meantime

Mr.Network

just received the assessment email

JoJoCal19

Just got my assessment. Will take this a little later today. Good luck to everyone else just receiving theirs.

Just got mine too, some good scores being reported, best of luck everyone

ypark

I received the email too! Woohoo!

I got 26 something out of 30. Basic Linux, Windows and CCENT type questions. Good luck everybody!

cmztech

Completed! Any idea what the cut off score is though?

I got a 21.63 /30 (roughly 72%)

Dang Linux questions and a couple others that I just didn't nail and I should have! Argh!

JoJoCal19

Completed mine and got 27/30. Felt it was fairly easy if you have had some exposure across networking/Windows/Linux.

A couple of hours ago I got mine and I scored around 25 of 30 but the percentage grade was empty. Did all of you got a percentage grade? Any guesses of the pass score?

yup percentage grade is empty, but they show the score. same here as well.

I got 26.67 out of 30, 88.89%. One of the questions was odd because it marked it wrong even though I had the correct answer (Was marked red but it noted the correct answer was... the one I chose)

Based on how basic the questions were, I would guess that anything over 80% would be passing.

Howdy all,

I checked into it for you all and the assessments are starting to go out. There's a lot of people to go through so it's going to take time. The best advice is to keep an eye on your email and as soon as you get the assessment, complete it as soon as possible to you get yourselves into the queue. Good luck!

Thanks Iris !!!

bigdogz

I hope he/she finally came up for air !!!

Well, I received the assessment email...but the website won't let me log in, says invalid login.

tphan3

Got mine at 3am today. Took it and scored well. I think it was easy enough.
JoJoCal19 Wow man, you already got CISSP, CEH and CHFI. Not sure if this cert adds any value to your shiny resume bro

you login with your email as a username and the password they sent you (hope no one mentions it in public, end up ruining things for people because its hackable)

TacoRocket

Didn't really like two questions that I got wrong. Hopefully they will fix them because they are actually wrong. 25/30 here.

I am aware. Did not work.

BuzzSaw

Just got my email.

I was a little distracted taking it and missed 5 for 25/30 - but whatever.

Test is pretty easy IMO, and only took me about 25 minutes (with distractions)

Ertaz

Well my coworker finally got his today so they are rolling the assessment out in phases just as planned. I wonder when they will get something back to us on whether we will get accepted or not.

techsecurity

Also it would be good to know the score percentage of the first that were accepted, if any.
