Messed up : S

Fotro

UGGGHH

Failed my Ccent

Got 787 and the passs was 804.... Bit gutted!

I just have a few questions, if ya's don't mind

I heard that the pass rate now goes up higher since i have seen the test and know what i'm in for, any truth in that ?

I'm not sure about which route would be better now for me test wise ?
See i origanally only booked the Ccent because i had a 50% voucher off so now im kinda thinking should i do both tests in one???
Or alternatively cram like a mofo take ICND1 again in 2 weeks and make up those few points.........

Just a little background info i finished the network academy CCNA course in like June but am only getting the chance to get the tests down.
But obviously i need to do more study : S


Worked it out if i got one more question right i probably would of got it >.<

And i know where i messed up it was with WLAN.... Thought i knew alot more about htan i actually did (i got 40% in that section) so i presume that was the thing that sank me..

Anyway cheers for reading....

Suck it up and Drive On.

Agonizing about it is just going to prolong the time until your head is clear enough to study and review and go nail that bast...uh, exam.

Luck of the draw on questions could change the emphasis of your next exam -- but you can study the topics (and section) from the exam blueprint sections you scored low on and review everything else.

It's probably just easiest to hit up the ICND1 exam again at $125 a pop than risk an all or nothing $250 CCNA exam.

If you can get over it, you should be able to pass after the mandatory 5 day waiting period between attempts at an exam. If you wait the 2 weeks like you said we're going expect at least a 930+

Go drink some beer, get over, and then get back to the books and lab exercises.

Good Luck on the sequel.

Everyone fails at something sometime in their lives, it's how you conduct yourself after that failure which makes you successful... You were close, get right back on that horse, and make it your B.... Well you got the idea... Good luck on your retake!

Don't get it get you down.
From my understanding, Cisco exams are one of the hardest IT exams out there.

Not to say that you should expect to fail, but keep at it. When I failed my ICDN2, I wanted to take the test RIGHT THEN. I didn't have time to feel sorry for myself. I knew what I missed, review it, and I wanted to get up and get on with it.

Generally you'll know the questions you have a hard time on. Focus on reviewing those, so when you see similiar questions you'll feel confident about them.

Very well put! I'm going to have to write this down.

Don't get down on yourself dude - I got exactly the same score on my first attempt at the 640-802 and let me tell you, I know what it feels to blow $250.

Just keep at it. As my boy Palpatine once said, let your frustration "give you focus, make you strongah!"
