Passed the ICND1 today!

First try...Thanks for all the info on this forum. It really helped. In hindsight, I realize I was feeling a little too cocky when I went in. Some parts can be tough! I hit some Sims early on knew to expect that from some previous posts. Last October, I hadn't even heard of Cisco. I feel like I've been studying nonstop for three months. Time to relax for a few days and then get on with the ICND2 stuff. I've been using the Odom books and a bunch of other books/videos as well as a Lab I made from scrounged gear on eBay.

One question - I think the exam mention I needed to supply an email to see results online after the 72 hour thing ? to who ? Pearson ?

the info should be on the paperwork they gave you after the exam.

Congrats on the pass. If you used pearson when scheduling your exam then yes. But, you can always log into the pearson vue website to view your results. I checked mine within a few hours and it had updated to pass already on both my 640-802 CCNA exam and my 640-812 BCMSN exam. Good luck on the ICND2 studies you will be fine. The Odom books do a good job of covering everything, you just gotta spend the time on it like you did!
