Am I ready for CCent?

Okay I'm thinking I'm pretty well ready but I'd like a second opinion

I've studied the cisco press icnd1 book cover to cover, read lots of cram guides and forums. I've completed the 160 question boson practice test that comes with the cisco press books and got 80% first go. I went back over all the questions I missed to make sure I understand the right answers now.

So wadaya think? Is the boson practice test harder or easier than the real deal?

THANKS!

How much lab time have you put in?

Are you prepared to perform and demonstrate knowledge of all the configure, implement, verify, resolve, troubleshoot, and enable tasks listed in the CCENT Exam Blueprint?

I feel pretty good about it. I passed all three sims in the boson test first try. I've got a Cisco 1811 router/switch for my lab. In total I've spent maybe 20 hours configuring it and messing around.

I'd have liked 2 routers but I borrowed this one for free so I'm not complaining.

Thanks, for the fast response!

If you're confident that you can answer everything listed in the CCENT blueprint that Mike linked to then you're ready. Brush up on any topics you're unsure about.

If you would like more lab time, there are a few online router labs. Some are free. Check out MyRouterLab.com - Cisco CCNA CCNP CCIE Router Lab Rack Rental for Virtual Training

Thanks for the input everyone.

I think I'm going to book asap. I have to travel 3 hours to the nearest test center so it may be a few weeks. I will update on my progress!
