Most people take the 2 exam approach (I did not). It is easier, and does not cost more as far as I'm aware. Each test costs half the price of the comprehensive exam.

I've gone through the Network Academy route, I've not booked my exam yet, but I will within the next week or so, but I'm going for the composite exam, by the sounds of it most people who do the exams without going through the Network Academy route go for the two exams (based on what I've read here and elsewhere) and those who go down the NA route tend to go for the composite (going by what my instructor and others I've spoken to have experienced).

i dunno if it is more or less easy. it just helps a lot of focussing on the topics.

in the end you need to answer between 80 an 100 questions instead of 40 to 50.

if i had to take it again with my level of knoledge i got now, i would go for the 1 exam. but i dont regret having done the 2 exam path.
