    I don't know McQuerry. I highly reccommend the Odom books. Exam cram questions are good for very basic knowledge, but do not reflect the the true nature of the Test. I would not be overly confident about high scores on them.

    Now the trick is to get through all of those books before they update the exam again :)

    BTW, Exam Cram CCNA is useless.

    For the CCNA, Sybex CCNA sets the standard. It does a very good job of mapping pretty closely with the exam.

    I used 4th ed., it didn't cover NAT and I needed to cover some of the switching stuff better, but overall that book is a must have for the exam.

    If you are going to read 7 books for the CCNA and Sybex is not one of them you are crazy.

    personally,
    I think, if you can understand the core topics in the outline....
    you shouldn't need 14 books to pass the exam.
