Finally CCNA!

Just passed the ICND2 test earlier today. 902, the same score I got on the ICND1 test. Failed the test with a 790 a few weeks back.

I guess the big question is what do I start working on now? I am having a hard time deciding between CCNP-Switch and CCNA:Security, or an MCP test.

All three of the certifications seem like they are foundational knowledge. Am currently taking a microsoft class at a local community college, but that class is based around the final test for the new MCSA (haven't taken any other microsoft classes).

    Congratulations! I will be working on the CCNA in the next six months. Was the exam difficult and intense?

    Congratulations!

    I'd go for security (Thats what I'm going to do once I've got my ccna)

    Well, I can't say that it was easy; I was not prepared enough the first time I took it. The hardest part is looking over the review page. I think they went out of their way to put down the most vague categories possible. That makes pinpointing what you need to focus on for the next go-around so difficult.

    If I go for the most interesting it definitely won't be the MCP. It seems like the test would have to be 90% memorization and I suck at memorization.

    Already got the celebrating part down.

    Congrats on the pass man. They do make it vague don't they. And the worst part is you really don't know what it means since you could get a 50 in one category but have only gotten two questions meaning you only got one wrong.
