CCNA 200-120 Video Tutorials

hi everyone! I have a video tutorial which are Cisco 640-816 (ICND2) Cisco 640-822 (ICND1). My question is, can I use these as my reference for my 200-120 preparation? Are they outdated? Thanks!

+1... Chris Bryant has a really good CCNA video series on Udemy for $44 which is well worth the money in my opinion, it also covers the newer syllabus for the CCNA.

Being that these are called Boot Camp videos, do these require hands on real world experience with Cisco Routers and Switches?

I don't think they require it - not to say that it wouldn't be helpful though. Books, CBT's and and network simulator seem to be doing the trick for me...at the CCNA level anyway.

Perfect, no need to make another post. I just got a few CBT video's from a fellow co-worker that is going on the CCNP pursuit now after getting his CCNA and he said the CBT video's are pretty detailed for a video like they tell you real-world stuff.

anyone else use the CBT nuggets videos?

Magic Johnson

Yes, as an introduction to each topic. Some nuggets go way beyond scope others barely touch it. I would never use it as a primary source.

I used the CBT Nuggets videos for the previous CCNA routing and switch exam. When I had to study for the new 200-120 exam, I used the CBT Nuggets videos and Infinite Skills. I used the Chris Bryant Boot Camp for 200-120 as a review 1 week before my exam date. All 3 had a different way of presenting the material, but overall, I liked the CBT Nuggets the best since Jeremy describes the information a little better for me and relates it to real-world situations.

As a note, I did not solely rely on these videos for my studies. I had 3 class in college and self studied between the Lammel and Odom books. When I failed twice before on the old exam and thought I was really missing something I even went as far as buying and piecing together my own lab to play with. However, two resources I started but never finished viewing was Lammel Press videos and CCNA For Dummies (latest).

I do recommend that you get a hold of 1000 CCNA Questions by the "For Dummies" to review before you take the exam. I was able to borrow it from my local library and they were a good refresher from the end of book study questions.

I wouldn't advise it since there has been some new material added (like HSRP/GLBP/SNMP & netflow) and a few that was dropped (like RIP & SDM). You can use it as reference to review topics covered between both like OSPF, but I would not use older material to study for the latest CCNA exam, especially the new CCENT exam which added material like OSPF & NAT that was never covered in the older CCENT exams. If you or anyone wanted advice or recommended materials for study, feel free to private message me.
