ICND1 - Passed!!!

WOO HOO!!! Second time around and managed to squeeze by with a 812 (needed 804). I was glad to identify my real weak areas so I can go back and review those before I move onto the ICND2 studies.

At this point, I'm just relieved to pass!

    Congrats! Just barely squeaked it though, eh?

    Did you have any thoughts as to how you were doing as you took the test? For me I had quite a few questions where I was 75% on one answer and 25% another, and at one point thought I was surely going to fail. How did you feel throughout the exam?
    Fantastic. The project manager is inspired.

    Thanks everyone! These Cisco exams are alot more stressful to me than the Microsoft exams were (mainly because you can't go back and review/change your answers).

    Darthn3ss - I was sweating bullets before and throughout the exam. I thought I still wasn't prepared enough but had forgot to reschedule it.

    The first 5 or so questions I felt really confident on - then I would hit a snag, regain my confidence, lose my confidence, etc. With about 10 questions to go I felt as though I was borderline passing. Of those final 10, I felt great on 5 of them and iffy on the other 5. All in all, I did not know what I expected when I clicked to see my score. I knew I felt better than I did the first time I took the exam but wasn't sure if it was enough. Happily, it was just enough :D

    Also - I ran into several questions where I felt the same as you - I would eliminate all of the possible answers except 2 and would feel 75% on one and 25% on the other...

    Congrats. ICND2 had a few more simulations than ICND1 if I remember correctly. What areas did the print out show were the weak ones?
