Been working IT for 10 years now and decided to dive into the world of cisco certs. I took the ICND1 twice. First score 787 ;( Two weeks later, second score 837

It feels great to finally get a certification especially a Cisco one. Been a Network Engineer for over 4 years now. It certainly helps to have hands-on experience, Odom Cisco press, Todd Lammle CCNA and to really top it off was the BOSON CCNA test kit. I have tried the Kaplan test prep material before and they were garbage. Questions were too easy. If you know the BOSON test materials, you are in very good shape for the test as they are difficult.
I also want to thank the group of people on this forum. It was inspirational to know there were other techies that were grinding through the studying/test-taking process and to finally achieve their desired cert. The feeling is great.

ICND2 is next...
