CCNA books

howdy,

does the CCNA Official Exam Certification Library (640-802) contain books for the ccent and icdn2 as seperate books or is it one huge one for the 802 exam?

has anyone also got any reviews about the set? because im probably going to buy em for £35 of amazon and just wanted any input. ive heard the sybex is easier to read but ive heard the cisco books are the best on the market?

It's two separate books. If you are studying for the single exam, you hop back and worth between them. My understanding is the Sybex book is good for beginners, but if you start with that, you should still go through the Cisco Press books because they're more in-depth.

i have the ccna academy books for the 801. so do you think it would be worth shelling out for the cisco books or just use the ones of the 801 and then use a cheaper book like sybex to fill in the missing parts?

or should i stop being a cheap skate a just buy the cisco books

I have the pair of 801 Cisco Press books. Shows what procrastination gets us, huh?

I'd by the new books, and I'd especially get the Cisco Press books if I was looking to fill in the gaps.

Procrastination huh? seems like you're just spending to much time with those silly MS exams dynamik

But back to the question from what i've heard the new exams aren't hitting the new topics as hard yet that is...but personally I'll vote for Cisco Press or Bryant any day. If you wanna spend a little cash though I'd also recommend TestOut(if they updated yet) This is what really broke me into all the topics well with the videos and they're excellent simulator to practice their exercises on. Best of luck to you on whatever you decide

It looks like you hit the nail on the head there. Where oh where are my priorities?
