in CCNA & CCENT
I took the ICND2 this morning and passed with a 944!
Configure, verify and troubleshoot a switch with VLANs and interswitch communications - 87%
Implement an IP addressing scheme and IP Services to meet network requirements in a medium-size Enterprise branch office network - 100%
Configure and troubleshoot basic operation and routing on Cisco devices - 93%
Implement, verify, and troubleshoot NAT and ACLs in a medium-size Enterprise branch office network - 83%
Implement and verify WAN links - 100%
I'm glad it's over. I started studying around September intermittently, but floundered till around February/March when I started to buckle down. I originally planned to take the composite, but later decided to break the test up into two parts. I'm glad I made this decision as it helped reinforce to myself that I had a complete grasp of the material.
Study materials I used include :
Todd Lammles CCNA book
Boson practice tests
Literally hundreds of index cards
Study notes found here on techexam
Next up is S+. I always wanted to take the Security+ exam. I started studying for it but then started the CCNA. I'd like to go back and finish what I started with Sec+.

Grats on the pass! Back when I took Sec+ Darril Gibson's book was the one to get. I recommend that one and actually I think he's a member here on the forums. -

Sounds like my story. Studied for the CCNA Composite using Netacademy material. Took this course back in 2007. Towards the end I decided to take the test in 2 parts.“The Only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it keep looking. Don't settle” - Steve Jobs -

Trying to keep this question as NDA-friendly as I can, but if you were suggest one major area to focus on to a CCNA candidate, what would it be??

Honestly I feel the questions were pretty evenly distributed across the five listed exam objectives. You'll want to be comfortable with everything listed.
