Cisco Testing with Pearson VUE

The latest Cisco Press and/or Sybex books are typically recommended.

I would recommend reviewing every single one of them. Along with some subnetting practice from:'

You can never be to prepared! You can only under prepare for the exam. I would study all of your texts, try to get your hands on some equipment and/or a simulator to get some hands on practice of the commands and labbing. This will help prepare you a lot more for when exam time comes. Especially, in the case if you would get a simulation lab.... Definitely don't want to not know what to do in that situation.

If I had the CBT nuggets + Todd Lammle's book for CCNA studies, I would:
1. Watch all the CBT nuggets videos to get a feel for the material
2. Read Todd Lammle's book
3. Lab
4. Read areas of the book / watch CBT nuggets videos in areas where you feel you need extra help.
5. Do the practice questions (all of them) from the book.. from memory they were pretty good.

Alternatively, if you have to catch a train/bus/ferry/tram or something to work/school/college, read the book on the train and watch the videos when you have time at home.

Just remember, it doesn't hurt to reread the book several times or watch videos multiple times. You paid for them so may as well get some good mileage out of them

Hope that helped.

Hi luke_bibby,

Thanks a lot for the advice, i had started with the Todd Lammle's book and completed 4 chapters, but now i am gonna finish the videos first and then continue with the book.

I also have this book for commands CCNA Portable Command Guide, 2nd edition, do u think this book is useful for the sim questions ?? Have u read this book?
