CCNA - Requirements and Study Materials

Hi Everyone,
I am new to this site and just registered today. I just need help clarifying some information.

I am trying to study for the CCNA exam. As to what i understand, either i can take one exam or take 2 exams (combination)

CCENT ICND1 640-822 & CCNA ICND2 640-816 - do i have to study for these two exams to complete my CCNA? or can i just study for the main exam CCNA 640-802? Is there a difference or am i lost ?

Also what study material should i buy? I am thinking of buying CCNA 7th Edition Todd Lammle book and watching the CNB videos? What do you recommend whoever has taken the exam?

I have a whole month to study for the exam and take it. I am taking off from work also so i can really study hardcore.

Please help with any suggestions and comments

Thanks

I'd definitely recommend the Odom books - I am using those along with the Lammle book to prepare. Beyond that there area a bunch of free study guides and labs all over this forum that you can use for free. Take advantage of all of those. Here's a couple:
