Switch passed

Took and passed the Switch today. I saw another member posted a lot of good information about his experience so I don't need to go into any detail. I thought the test was fair and saw very minor grammar errors. I might have just been lucky, but I can't say I saw any of the issues other people have reported. I can say that you need to spend some time labbing for this test. I would say I spend upwards of 80 solid hours reading, taking notes, and labbing for this exam.

I tought I had failed because my last question was one of the 5 question simlets and I ran out of time before I could make it to the submit button (really sucked to get 0 credit for such a heavily weighted question).

I used the FLG, Cert guide, Bryant videos, old Trainsignal videos, Transcender, and Cisco documents. I take my hat off to Transcender for their practice exam. What was more beneficial to me than the actual exams was the link to offical Cisco documents that pertained to every question within the bank. Time to move on to Route!
Currently studying for Route. Shooting for a 6/3/11 test date.

    Thanks everyone. I studied for about 3 months...probably around 25 hours per week on average reading, taking notes, or labbing. I got my CCNA in August of last year. I'm coming out of the Navy so a lot of my previous experience was with proprietary equipment...can't say I enjoy spending every minute studying, but I gotta get ahead of the game somehow.
