CCNP Decisions

PlazmaPlazma Member Posts: 503
I have yet to start my CCNP track, but plan to in the coming months.. I have 2 vouchers I can use toward selftest practice tests that expire Nov 5. My question is, what 2 tests of the CCNP should i use them for? The BSCI looks like mostly hands-on knowledge and some reading to fill in the gaps and the BCMSN seems a lot of theoretical stuff too.

ONT and ISCW also seem pretty theoretical, but BSCI def seems like its got the most hands on.

ideas?

    I would do BCMSN and BSCI as a reconosaince mission. I think those two tests are a majority of the NP bulk. I could be wrong on that though as I havent taken any of the NP tests. That is a TON of material to reflect on if you have to take both by Nov.6th. Good luck.
    There is no place like 127.0.0.1 BUT 209.62.5.3 is my 127.0.0.1 away from 127.0.0.1!

    oh i don't have to TAKE the tests by Nov 5, i have to just choose what selftest to download by then (thats when THOSE vouchers expire)

    again the vouchers were for the software

    i anticipate within about 3 months ill start my NP track and wont finish it prob another 8-12 months from now (granted i do it the way it should be done) itll prob be longer because of life though

    I am not really sure what you are asking, but here are some comments about the CCNP. BSCI and BCMSN are the two toughest test for CCNP. There is a ton of in depth content. I would highly recommend doing these first, because it is downhill after that. ICSW and ONT are both fairly easy. They are newer test, so the content isn't as developed. I haven't seen the practice test, so if you are asking which ones are the best......I can't help you.

    Good Luck!

    aaahh now thats a horse of a different color. I thought they were vouchers for the actual exam. Nevertheless, i would still use them for the 2 big tests aforementioned.
