Passed ICND1!

Hi everyone, first time poster, long time lurker.

Finally buckled down and took my ICND1 today, passed with an 850. Not a great score, but it was passing and I know why I didn't do better.

I was coming down to the wire on my 50% voucher that I got from doing the Cisco Academy at the local community college, and really didn't want to lose out on it. I crammed and refreshed for 6 days straight, did tons of practice tests and labs, and spent a good while poring over the posts on this board. Thanks to anyone who has ever posted tips and tricks and helpful hints, you all helped me get the score I got today!

One down, one to go! End of June hopefully and I'll be able to take my ICND2.

Thanks everyone!

    If you can post what study materials you actually use besides the forums/tests that would be awesome!

    Congradulations. I will be taking the test tomorrow.

    I just have two questions that seem to be avoided by almost everyone..

    1)Are subjects in the ICND1 curriculum handled different amongst authors?
    2)And are there really areas covered in the ICND1 exam which is the subjec to ICND2?

    Would really appreciate an honest answer.

    Best Regards
