Bsci-passed

arsalan921

Hello all,

passed bsci today in first attempt ( this was my first cisco exam, not ccna certified yet )... 950 score..

material used.

authorized self-study guide. studied for 2 and a half month...

did all labs of lab portfolio... 2 times

questions/answers and mcqs of Official certification guide by brent stewart.

thats it...

it was a difficult exam. covers lot of material...

next going for ONT.
then ISCW
AND then BCMSN.

ONT i have heard is easiest among all. and bsci is most difficult...

so hope ont would be done in a month...

reason for doing ont and iscw first is that their last date is 31st july... bcmsn or switch ( 642-902 ) is not much difference. it can be done.

i still hope that i will be able to finish my ccnp track by end of june...

would appreciate some suggestions from you guys... that whether i am going in right direction ? or should i do switching first ?

How can you take the BSCi with out a valid CCNA?

Valid CCNA certification or any CCIE Certification can act as a pre-requisite..

You can take the exam, you just can't get the CCNP without a valid CCNA.

I should have though of that, I might have gone that path.. However what happens when it comes to re-certification?

say you achieve all your CCNP exams, then wait 2.5 years and take your CCNA.

In theory you have only just become a CCNP, but when do you need to recertify?

And sorry to high jack your thread Arsalan, Well done on the pass..
