CBTNuggets?

BF2Mad

Hi Guys,

After a break after getting my MCSE I am ready for a new challenge and will be going down the CCNA path

My questions are to do with CBT Nuggets, during my MCSE studying CBT Nuggets featured as my main study material and I am hoping to use them for my CCNA.

Questions

1. Are the CBT Nuggets for Cisco any good?
2. I have a version of CBT Nuggets at work but it says it is for exam version "640-607" and I believe we are now up to "640-801" to save some money will I be ok with "640-607" or should I go and get the new version, what is different.
3. Is this a good time to take a CCNA for example is there going to be a new version of the exam in a month etc.

Thanks for the help

CBT nuggets for the CCNA is a very useful resource. Sometimes when I've not fully understood the Cisco Press explanations, the nuggets have explained things in a different light which has helped alot. It shouldn't really be your main study resource but as a supplement I think its excellent and will let you have expert training in a lecture format to fill in any gaps in knowledge and give you alot of tips and tricks. For best results, combine nuggets with the Cisco press books as well as a home lab and you're gonna be halfway there!

If you're going to use CBT nugget videos you definitely need to get the 640-801
version. In fact even the new version which covers Netware
isn't on the current exam. If you are new to cisco I highly recommend the
the CBT nugget video. I find myself going back to the video every now and then.
Emilio the instructer really knows is stuff. Hope this helps
