Preparing for CCENT

fjhesq

Is www.subnettingquestions.com a good source to practice subnetting for the test. I'm whizzing past these. How long did any of you prepare for this exam? I have about 2 years of networking experience and I've finally decided to pursue certs on the Cisco track. I've read the press book by Odom and I've been watching CBT nuggets like TV lately. Any suggestions?

If it feels like you're just reviewing, and all the topics on the exam blueprint are second-nature, then it's probably time to go take the test. See what you can do about finding some practice tests, like the ones on this site, and see how you do. If you're scoring in the 90% range right off the bat, it's definitely time to go take the test.

As for me, I took the 640-801 exam back in 2007, I'd spent a couple of months, in total, studying for it. Not quite the same as doing ICND1 and ICND2, but it gives you a rough idea that you're probably going to end up with at least a month or two of study-time before you sit for the exam. In the case of some people, it can take as long as six months to a year before they're ready.

www.subnettingquestions.com is a great site for basic subnetting. The actual CCNA test questions will likely require you to go beyond this, i.e., you will also need to know how to apply subnetting knowledge to access lists, route summarization, troubleshooting, and so forth.
