I have to say first, thanks for making this a great site and your patience with me as I've gone through my studies..
I passed with an 848 and this was my free retake. I studied the Cisco Press books, CBT Nuggets, Chris Bryant's stuff, and the CCNA Handbook. I read all the "books" twice and found each source helpful.
My advice to other CCNA students is to read a lot and think critically for the exams.
Next up, either CCNA Wireless, Linux+, Server+ or something like that.. I want to save the CCNA Security for when I want to attempt the CCNP.
Again, this is a great site and a great resource!
