The Bryant Advantage e-books

in CCNA & CCENT
Does anyone have any experience with these e-books? Ive read all the other major books but Im just looking to read something different. Is it worth it to add these e-books to the reading list or is it a compilation of Sybex and Cisco Press mixed together.

Im asking this question bc a study partner allowed his CCNA to expire and he quickly wants to get his CCNA. I gave him my Sybex and Cisco Press books with the Sybex Fast Pass... but he wants to try this Bryant Advantage e-books. Is it recommended? Or can persons give opinions if you have actually used these products?

    The binary Ebook is the greatest thing since sliced bread icon_lol.gif

    I really didnt dive much into the other books, I bought them all and skimmed through a few. What I saw I liked though.

    So you think its worth the 30 bucks or should we concentrate on the core books? Thanks for the reply... btw.

    It seemed to me that the Bryant Advantage stuff just got down to the meat and taters of things, while the core material went above and beyond. WHile the core material will fill your brain up more, the bryant advantage stuff concentrates pretty much exclusively on whats needed to pass. I prefer the information overload method, thats why Its taking me so long to get my CCNA, I am taking the objectives beyond. Im more concerened with the knowledge than the cert.

    One last nubcake question and I will let this question go... this Bryant Adv e-book is it more like the Sybex CCNA Fast Pass book?

    That I couldnt tell you, Im using one Sybex reference book and its version 2, so I havent been using it that muhc since its behind the times :p

    I used sybex exclusively for my MCSE, but for Cisco Im gonna stick mostly with Cisco Press.
