Passed my first Cisco exam this morning and got my CCENT certification!! My score was an 850 on the exam and what a great feeling its been awhile.

Books/resources:
CCNA Cisco Certified Network Associate Study Guide 7th edition by Todd Lammle
CBT Nuggets by Jeremy Cioara
INE videos (somewhat dry but informative)
TechExams TechNotes
College hands-on experience with routers/switches

I'm moving onto the CCNA and will start next week but I'm taking a break for the rest of the weekend to celebrate by drinking and playing Bioshock Infinite!! icon_thumright.gif

    Congrats!
    Yes, I am a criminal. My crime is that of curiosity. My crime is that of judging people by what they say and think, not what they look like. My crime is that of outsmarting you, something that you will never forgive me for.

    I took the old exam as that is what my materials covered and I was very familiar with the content. I didn't want to buy new books, etc.. lol

    I took the Network+ back in 2009 I think its on a similar level as the CCENT basically with a Cisco flavor added to the mix
