Well, just went ahead and scheduled ICND1

I've spent 2 months studying. Every single night for hours, even weekends. Used Odom's book, simulators, practice exams... you name it I tried it. I feel like I'm going over everything that I already know. Took an assessment on Cisco's sight and I scored over 90% on it. The practice tests that I took where I didn't score well it is because I didn't read the question carefully enough, not because I didn't know the material. I guess that means I need to just go ahead and take the test. See just how ready I am. I have a week left. Anyone have any suggestions for things to do a week before the exam?

    I just took the ICND1 Exam on Saturday. I did not pass but the best advise I can give is know subnetting. My subnetting score for the test was 50%.
    That what's what I would work on if you are confident on all the other material a week before the test.

    Among my everyday studying, I do 5-10 questions on subnettingquestions.com. I can't claim to do them insanely fast, but I can do most of the math in my head and get every question correct.

    Oh and I saw your post, I am sorry you didn't pass. Don't ever let a failure get you down though mgmguy1. Persevere. That is how we learn. Thomas Edison said he failed 10,000 times before he succeeded.

    Just relax. You seem to be well prepared so don't stress yourself. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

    Have basic knowledge about subnetting. Relax.
    If you are good with subnetting then ICND1 would be a piece of cake.

    I sat on subnettingquestions.com for a couple of hours until I could do the problems in my head almost instantly. Once you get to that point, make sure you understand the concepts and you'll be fine. Can't stress understanding the concepts enough, though. The questions aren't just trivia but a way to make sure that you not only read the material but know what they are talking about!
