atippett Member Posts: 154You're right anything can happen! You also have 3 security certs, that will help you. A big part of CCNA Sec is the different types of attacks, and different types of malware and such. That's probably half of the test. Good luck!

p@r0tuXus Member Posts: 532 ■■■■□□□□□□So were the labs in their own network (ie. virt labs) or were you given a lab-book and made your own, like GNS3 with images?Completed: ITIL-F, A+, S+, CCENT, CCNA R|S

Gone through about half of the material so not expecting a pass. But hey, it's multiple choice right? Anything can happen! Happy Friday!

swamprat Member Posts: 76 ■■■□□□□□□□Way to go man! Not even just the pass, but not letting yourself get psyched out and forcing yourself to fail.
Start studying for the next one. -
NightBlade09 Member Posts: 37 ■■□□□□□□□□A guy on the forums said that the blueprint is misleading and requires you to know how to Implement most things instead of just Describe. Does that hold true for you?

dontstop Member Posts: 579 ■■■■□□□□□□You've effectively piqued my interest and gained my attention with this post. First of all, good show! Now you know I have to ask, what methods did you use for your cramming and what materials?
I've read from studies that cramming is a good strategy in this exact case when you need to pass a test the next day without having all the required knowledge. But it's been shown to have adverse effects on long term memory. Hence why most students say once they pass the exam they just forget it all. Spaced repetition is king! In saying that thought, well done NetworkNewb for putting in a mega effort and passing. -

I dont know how you can argue with the results.
