Switch models on the 801 test

Does anyone remember if the 801 test uses different switch models, or just one, in their sims? The Sybex book covers instructions for the 1900, 2950, and 3550 switches. I can't imagine the test making you have to know all the different models? Does anyone have any study - recommendations - for this? Thanks.

We had 2924s, 2950s, mainly. I don't think we ever used 1900s. Used some 3550s in the CCNP 7, which changed some parameters.
