Exam questions

mike3mike3 Member Posts: 136
I know the test center provides you with a marker board. Can I use this to count out 16's so I can just reference the numbers when dealing with subnets of 240? How long do they give you before you start the test? Do you have 15 minutes or so before you begin?

    you get 15mins to go through a explination thing to show you how to navigate etc throughout the exam.....
    I used this time to write out my subnet chart and powers of two I only used it a couple fo times during the exam but was still glad to have it there as a nice calming reference point....
    if I say something that can be taken one of two ways and one of them offends, I usually mean the other one :-)

    I also used the marker board to write out the subnet chart, definitely saved me some time on questions during the exam and I would highly recommend doing this

    i'd also recommend if you have space draw out any topologies for various scenario questions.

    Sounds good. That's what I'm going to do then. Makes it a lot quicker..

    I also wanted to add. I'm able to do subnet questions between 20-40 seconds depending on the question. Sometimes if it's an easy one I can do it in 10 seconds or so...

    I think I seen from CBT Nuggets that they recommend you do subnets in your head within 20 seconds.
