I got 818 with the passing line 804. Very lucky.
I only prepared this CCENT test for 2 weeks, I didn’t know anything about network before that. The reason I took the test so fast hurriedly is that if I failed this time, I can still use the “comeback 2009”promotion to take again by Jul 20th, and Jeremy (from CBTNuggets) recommended only 2 weeks for CCENT too.
My preparation:
1. Went through CBT Nuggets video once. Jeremy was a funny guy and he did an awesome job to introduce network in the video. He totally made me interested in networking.
2. Went through Train Signal video once. This video is not as entertaining as the CBT Nuggets, but it covered more details and emphasized what needed to be handled for the test.
3. I also got the PDF version of “Cisco Press.CCNA-CCENT ICND1 Official Exam Certification Guide 2E - Wendell Odom”, but I didn’t have time to read it.
4. I got the boson software and played with it for a couple of days.
5. Finished all 3 sets of tests on the Train Signal CD. (practiced subnetting with it)
That’s all for my preparation. I wasn’t sure if I can passed, and was even planning to take it again by Jul 20th.
In the test, there were about 6 problems about something I totally had no clue about, including the first and the sixth problems, which made me upset at the beginning.
I think I would have done much better if I had read the Cisco Press book once. It should cover those 5-6 problems which I had to guess the answers in the test.
I will work towards ICND2.
I already have these stuff on the way:
1x2950, 1x3640, 1x1721, 1x2610
Good luck to everyone with their tests.
PS. I'm sorry that I posted some actual problems in the test in this thread. I already removed them.
