in CCNP
I started a new job the end of last year as a technical trainer at a
Microsoft IT Academy. They required an MCSE with ISA 2004 and Vista as components in addition to gaining MCITP:SA status. I achieved my MCSE with Security+, 70-298, and XP 2 years prior. So for me to get the job, I had to pass Vista Config(70-620), ISA2004 (70-350), 70-649(2k8 upgrade), 646(MCITP:SA), and for giggles(not as a job requirement), I took and passed the 70-647 (MCITP:EA). Also, right before I took this job last year I was sidetracked for about 3 months with a brain hemorhage and blod clot in my large sinus. I almost died, but thankfully I had an extremely talented team of neurologists and hemotologists.
Well, now is the time for me to head back to the Cisco track. I haven't really even taken a look at any of the CCNP material in a LONG time. (Feels like forever...) I need to pass ONT to complete my CCNP. Any suggestions on prepping this test after such a long break?
I have the ONT CBT Nuggets, Transcender practice test, and the Cisco Press ONT and QoS books.

ONT isn't too bad. The book and the Nugs should be plenty. Just know your QoS well. -
