  I am aware that I can either obtain my CCNA either by taking..
  
  640-802 alone.
  
  or
  
  640-822
  640-816
  
  My question is.. does it matter?
  
  does your certification say ICND1/2 CCNA.. or does it just say CCNA?
  
  I almost passed my 640-802... but failed one simulation.
  
  So I pretty much decided to take the 2 part exams instead...
  
  just curious to what the actual certificate says/looks like.
  
  any insight would be much appreciated... thanks.

  
  If you take and pass the 640-802 composite exam, you get your CCNA right there. If you opt to take ICND1 first, that gets you your CCENT. A completion of ICND2 after that will get you your CCNA. Same certification, just two ways to get there.

  okay thanks.. so once I pass them both, I can put that I have my CCNA on my resume.
  
  but if I happen to not pass the 2nd part, I can atleast put CCENT on there.
  
  good to hear.
  
  I guess its more of a macho thing amongst other network engineers to be like oh i passed the 802.. didnt need to take the ICND1/2. lol
