Question

Good morning!

If someone would answer my question I'd greatly appreciate it. I'm going may 18th to take my CCNA exam for the first time and I can't help but think worst case scenero: I fail. What happens then? $250 dollars down the gutter or will be I entitled to a free retake?

Again, if someone could kindly answer this, I'd greatly appreciate it.

You lose your $250 as expected. Cisco occasionally do a "Comeback" promotion where you get a free retake if you fail your first test but it is only for people who are renewing their lapsed certificate.

I guess they're not too picky. Can't hurt to give it a try anyway!

The requirements are supposed to be:
* You earned a Cisco certification that has since lapsed and are trying to re-certify, and you fail the applicable test, OR
* You have a current Cisco CCNA certification and are trying to gain a Voice, Security, or Wireless specialty certification, and you fail the applicable test.

You should be able to redeem the Comeback2009 offer.. I spoke with Pearson VUE customer support & they had verified that the offer is there.. ** they also said that they don't tell people who don't know about it, but those who know are more than welcome to redeem.
