Ccent exam

Hello all,

Im currently studying to take my ICND1 exam in 2 weeks. I've been studying with CBT Nuggets which is great but is there any other study material anyone recommends that I use to help me pass the test?

I think Boson is a good source, also look through the ICND1 book or the applicable chapters in the 640-802 book.

Honestly, I think those three = success. Also, get your subnetting down and find what works for you when it comes to solving subnetting questions

I also recommend the INE CCNA R/S videos, which can be found for free at CCIE Training - CCIE Routing & Switching, Voice, Security, Service Provider, Data Center

Additionally, are you using any resources to get some hands on time with equipment (either virtual or real)?

Cisco Press Books, Todd Lammle's material is also good. Free INE videos are good as well as links and threads in this forum.

hopefully you're doing more then the CBT videos.. are you reading and labbing? good example is how Jeremy does not go in deep information on some subjects but gives an overall general idea of how it works.

I was really disappointed in his EIGRP video.

EIGRP isn't really covered in ICND 1 but I understand where you're coming from, you definitely want a book to read after you view a topic on CBT nuggets. I'd recommend the Cisco Press Books. The only thing I do not like in the Cisco press books is the chapters on subnetting.

I used Lammle's book, Cbt nuggets, and Boson NetSim 8 and the Boson Exam Environment.. I highly recommend the Boson products. I scored in the 900's on ICND1. I am currently using the same study materials for ICND2.

Yes, I have been using labs mainly cisco packet tracer. But I will check out Boson netsim. You guys are awsome and i really appreciate your help.
