CCENT/CCNA Study Group

Xyro

All those interested in joining a CCENT/CCNA study group, please post here.

Also, as stated prior... we will need a volunteer to set up the hangout. It would be great if we could get someone who is more experienced with using the service.

Ok, so let's get this started.

Who wants to set up, what I assume will be, the hangout? I'm pressed for time or I would do it myself. I will help in any way I can though.

It looks like most recent posts are interested in a CCENT/CCNA study group, so let's at least get a separate thread set up so we can see who else would be interested in joining.

I don't wish to hijack this thread for the purpose of setting up that specific group.

chickenlicken09

ya would def be interested.

Cerebro

I would be interested.

I am interested as well. Recently finished the ICND1 and am kicking off my ICND2 studies.

newt.chapman

I'd be interested, just starting on ICND1.

DoubleNNs

I'm (re)starting the ICND1 as well. I'm interested.

Great to see this thread made.

I think it would be best to create two or four separate groups; ICND1 and ICND2 640-822/640-816 and also ICND1 and ICND2 100-101/200-101

Allowing the old and new material to stay separate from each other, additionally allows those currently studying the 640 series and 100/200 series separate.

Nytrocide

I would LOVE to join! Still on 640-822 CCENT.

Upon further investigation it seems like Google Groups would be sufficient enough for the need of supporting different groups with discussions. Similar to a thread created on any web-based forum.

Google Hangout will act differently in the that you'll be chatting with up to 9 individuals in a one time session which allows you to share videos, share screen, share apps, chat and probably a few other things.

If a thread was created within this website sub forum I feel like it will get dragged down and then end of on another page (unless it becomes a sticky thread).

Google groups created.

CCNA-CCENT-ICND1 640-822

CCNA-CCENT-ICND2 640-816

CCNA-CCENT-ICND1 100-101

CCNA-CCENT-ICND2 200-101

Editing in progress. So you will notice changes over the next few days, unless I get everything done tonight. ;D

DoubleNNs

I hope there's enough traffic in the groups to warrant 4 individual study groups.

Either way, I'll be joining the 640-822 group.

I agree that I thought the same thing. Then I thought that doing the groups individually would keep certain topics within the proper exam group and eliminating confusion for certain users who may not have read on a topic being discussed, being it is for the latter exam.

Ken217a

Are you going to study the current ICND1 or the new ICND1 v2, that just came out?

Nytrocide

Think you meant to put ICND1 at the 640-822, right?

Santa_

Thanks for catching that. I know there would have been mistakes made while being talked to by my girlfriend and listening to music. :S


Name fixed.

Ken217a; I'm going to study for the new version 2.0. Though this does not affect how much information goes into one or the other. List of general topics would be, Exam Topics, Lab Gear vs Simulator, How To/Video resources, and so forth. Similar to how this sub forum is.

fredlwal

I'm interested in joining the Google hangout group. Right now i'm listening to the audio of the CBTNugets CCENT in the car. My screen name on google+ is fredlwal.

jamthat

In for the 640-816..kinda stalled the last couple weeks but I'm getting back on track. Have the basics of everything down, just need to fill in where needed and lab.

I should show up as jamthat..not used to Google+ haha

Xyro

Santa, thank you for taking the initiative to create several Google Groups. I still ponder the idea of Google Hangout though because as you stated:

I believe most were interested in more than a forum-based interaction because, after all, that's what we already have here on TE.

Again, the groups are great, but would you be up to also creating (a) Hangout(s)?

We could use the groups you created as a type of "home-base" because I agree with your statement that this thread will (eventually) be "dragged down".

DrBr0b0tnik

I'd like to join up for the 640-822 group. I've been through CCNA modules 1 & 2, but I'm defiantly not comfortable taking the exam. Currently self-studying Odom's ICND1, CBTnuggets CCENT, and I have Packet Tracer.

whitfield

I am intrested. I plan to get Odoms book for the CCENT100-101 next friday.

Obdurate

I am interested in the 200-101

Obdurate~

Would be nice if we could actually all get a Hangout Chat going too...now that it's universal to web/Android/iOS and is tied to G+. Video and etxt chat anywhere. Add me if you wanna start this up! https://plus.google.com/113071158365560876031/posts

Been away from the forums due to a new job and EDC and another show this past weekend.

I have yet to start reading my new CCNA, but I will start later today.

The G+ chat will be a nice thing to have, but would we be discussing different topics , specific chapters/topics, or just about anything related?

I've added most requests sent to the Google Groups. Any one is more than welcome to start topics.

My plan of action will be to write down my notes and transfer them to a PDF file from the chapter that I read. Allowing myself to retain the information better and users to read my notes and use it for their own study materials.

M-Ant78

Count me in as interested. CCENT bound.

Xyro

Unfortunate to see this has failed to become organized.

Also, apparently I'm out as I'm not entering a telephone number just to open an online account. That's ludicrous, IMO.

Good luck to the rest of you though & if anyone wishes to start a study group on something less invasive such as Yahoo messenger etc., feel free to inbox me.

This would be much needed for myself.....will be attempting the 4th 640-816 attempt(818 was previous score the previous 3 times!!) so this group will be very much appreciated

bbarrick

I just sent a request to join the CCENT 100-101 group.

bbarrick

I don't see any option in the Google groups CCENT page to allow me to post anything.
