Just an observation.
I'm currently pursuing the 640-801 ICND cert. Though the book material (Cisco Press 640-821 2nd Edt.) reviews the 640-821 topics in one or two chapters, 640-801 practice exams I've taken cover much of the 640-821 material.
I suppose this makes sense, seeing how the INTRO exam covered a lot of the fundamental basics and ideas.
I was expecting more routing commands or physical/data-link layer questions. But I understand how important it is to get a strong foundation early in routing/networking.
Just wanted to put it out there...that when you're studying for the 640-821, don't forget your 801 stuff. Seems like it keeps coming back and back.

801 is the combo test. It covers material in Intro (821) and ICND (811).
If this is indeed the test you passed, congratulations, you're a CCNA! -

Hello Danman32,
My fault...I'm getting my courses all mixed up.
Yes, the 821 intro exam is what I was referring to. Thanks for pointing this out.
