    I think you just have to take it. IMO if you are getting 80% on transcender you should pass---assuming you haven't memorized the answers for the test and falsely inflate your scores icon_lol.gif

    You should be fine.

    Don't go in with that attitude. I scored 84% on the boson practice exam 2 days before mine, and came out with a 914. I even remember being about 2/3 of the way through the exam, feeling pretty bad cause I was sure I wasn't going to pass (but trying not to just give up!). So go in with the attitude that you'll give it your best! Like the others say, even if you don't pass, you at least have picked up experience with the testing environment and have a nice breakdown showing your weak and strong points!

    You can't reschedule on the day so just go for it since you've paid anyway. Good luck.

    I'll make the bold prediction that you did better than you thought you would

    Heh.. failed with a 600. BUt i feel a lot better now that I know the type of questions asked. Routing was my worst part by far.. and security.

    Well now you have the breakdown and know what to hit the books on. You'll get it next time.

    I've done the same, rescheduled an exam about 4 times, then went traveling forgot about the exam date and didn't turn up ... oops waste of 200+ dollars :/
    (i've since passed the exam)

    well that sucks, but like you said... now you know what you need to study up on and also what to expect next time ;)

    what was the exact breakdown? meaning, when you finished your test Cisco gives you a printout that lists your percentages in exam objectives, to help you know what you did good on and what you need to study up on?

    share that with us

    Hmm I left it at work but I think most were 50-60% and 2 that were around 33% were routing management or commands or something and security.

    I know I got 2 sims that were nothing like ive ever seen before.

    well, what did you use to help yourself prepare?

    Transcender exams don't do anything for you if you don't feel like you're ready to test for the real exam when you take those Transcenders

    I thought the ICND1 Transcenders were harder than the actual exam. I'm hoping the same holds true for the ICND2 exam.
