Drinking the Cisco Juice

After finally getting my butt off the couch and focusing, I finally passed and got my CCNA this last weekend. I did, however, take the ICND1 then ICND2, and in my opinion I think that is the best way to go. After talking with a few colleagues who only took one exam, it seems they had tons more sims than I did..

ICND1 Score: 912
ICND2 Score: 902


Now onto Security+ I am hoping to get it before my CCNP classes start at the Cisco Network Academy...

    Well done old bean.

    What did you use for revision if you don't mind me asking?

    Congrats on passing!

    ICND1+ICND2 back-to-back? Wow.

    Don't get overconfident for Security+. It is a test, and people fail it. Don't take it for granted.

    If you're taking Security+, you should probably head over to that sub-forum, for the advice there. I cannot recommend a text, as I have not read one recently, and the test now apparently includes performance-based items, in addition to multiple choice.

    Congratulations!!!
    The Security+ material is great. It can be a tough exam though.

    Good Luck.

    Congrats! At a CCNA level the CompTIA exams won't be that much of a challenge.
    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.
