Passed 833!!! Feedback about test...

amystri

Well I wrote the exam this morning and passed with a 833.

General Info:
Unlike some other posts I have seen, the test itself was very straight forward and maybe had 2 questions that were worded "weird". I did have some scenario questions, 5-6, but if you break down the questions and get rid of the extra fluff, you will have no problem. A thing I do as many others do is to eliminate the WRONG answers, this will leave you either with a 50/50 choice or maybe if you are lucky, the right answer.

Don't over study/cram the night before otherwise your brain will become mush and you may question yourself in regards to your ability to pass the test as you are trying to suck in too much at once, get a good nights rest and get some food in your tummy and all will be OK!!!

General Questions:
My test was very simple and asked about the most common ports, a few on utilites like ping, tracert etc.. and of course make sure to study your topologies, speeds etc... Though I did not get more then 2 OSI model questions, make sure to study them anyways. Ohh Yeah, no DSL questions for me though I did study seeing how alot of others had DSL questions so cover that as well, just in case.

My Study Materials:
1. Mike Meyer's AIO
2. Mike Meyer's Passport
3. The Technotes and review questions on this site, very informative!!!
4. The MCMCSE Study Guide, not sure if I am allowed to link to it but here it is... http://www.mcmcse.com/comptia/network/N10002guide.shtml
5. This site covers in detail many things for the test and is a great site to learn from... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_network
6. AND also all the practice tests that I coould get a hold of.


REMEMBER TO NOT OVERTHINK THE TEST OR OVERTHINK IN YOUR STUDIES, THIS TEST IS A BASIC TEST TO SEE IF YOU UNDERSTAND THE BASIC CONCEPTS OF NETWORKING.

Good Luck To All and it's off to study for my MCSA but first, it's time to whip out the Return To Castle of Wolfenstein game and relax a bit.. Heheheheh!!!!!!

not sure which you're playing, but these are for the first.....have fun!

The following codes will work on the single player retail version of the game, and only on a saved game. They do not work in the demo or multi-player games. Edit your Windows 9x/ME Desktop Shortcut for the game and change the "Target" field to:

"C:\Program Files\Return to Castle Wolfenstein\WolfSP.exe" +set sv_cheats 1

If using Windows XP, right click on the single play shortcut. On the "Command Line", make sure the command line is in quotes and add +set sv_cheats after two spaces, so it resembles:

"drive:\path\folder\WolfSP.exe" +set sv_cheats 1

Notice that there are two spaces between the last " and the + in the Windows XP shortcut.
