Hey guys

i am taking my CCNA 640-801 exam tommorow. That is my first cisco exam. Anyone have a advise for me and what should i do to pass. I have been studing for about two weeks straight none stop. Subnetting is my biggest fear. Wish me luck

Well good luck, hopefully you have your subnetting down well enougg, you'll need it.

Just be calm while taking the test. read each question carefully. I went through and picked out all of the wrong answers before deciding on the correct one when I took it.

If you are having trouble with subnetting, get it down before the test. Know how to pick out Broadcast, and network addresses, as well as learning the block size of each subnet mask.

Don't rush yourself, but also don't waste time.



Timing is everything, and in my mind the most difficult part of actually taking the exam.

I'll be taking it tomorrow also. You better get your subnetting down, that's the easy part, IMO.
Two weeks of studying really isn't much at all.

Buona Fortuna.

good luck to both of you!!!

Good Luck

Watch your time managment -- spend no more than 10 minutes (or so) on a SIM. If you don't have it by then, you're just kill time you might need for other SIMs and "easy questions."

Make sure you read the entire question and all the answers -- then read the question again. You may miss a word that could change the entire meaning of the question.

If you don't know the answer -- rule out the obviously wrong questions (if you can), then pick the "best answer" out of the remaining options.

Don't forget to jot down notes during the pre-exam demo time and the time to read the Cisco Non-disclosure Agreement. Some sort of subnetting table is a good idea -- even if you don't need it, its nice to have just in case you hit a complex problem and forget everything about subnetting.

Try and relax -- easier said than done, but still worth a try.

I'm taking the test tomorrow as well. I hope I do fine! I like mikej412's advice of creating a subnet chart before starting - that should be VERY helpful. thank!
