Passed ICND1&2

I've been coming to this site for many years and it's been a great resource for me. I took the ICND1 a couple months ago and passed with an 852, took the ICND2 this morning and passed with a 958. I've been wanting my CCNA for a long time, but life kept getting in the way. Glad this day is finally here!

I used CBT Nuggets, and Train Signal videos mainly. IMO the CBT Nuggets videos were better than the TS ones. I know that Chris Bryant is a something of a genius, but for some reason the teaching styles of Jeremy Cioara seemed to fit me better. If I had to recommend one, it would be CBT Nuggets. I also used the Cisco books by Wendell Odom, didn't read them cover to cover, but glanced over the topics that weren't 100% clear from the videos.

Guess it's time for IINS :)

    Congrats!!! I'm using similar tools but doing my labs via the Cisco Network Academy content. I'm still a little scared of ICND2 though lol.

    Congrats!!! I'm using similar tools but doing my labs via the Cisco Network Academy content. I'm still a little scared of ICND2 though lol.

    I know how you feel!! After taking the ICND1 I figured the ICND2 was going to be just awful. lol Found it odd that I scored 100 points higher on ICND2. Either way, I'll take it.

    That's a good point, I forgot to mention labs. I setup a small bit of a Cisco lab at the home office. I have 4x 2500 series, 2x 2600, 1 x 1700, and an ASA. Speaking of all that, I need to buy some switches :D

    Congrats on the CCNA!
    No longer work in IT. Play around with stuff sometimes still and fix stuff for friends and relatives.
