Well, after studying on and off for close to 3 years

, I finally took the plunge and sat the SWITCH exam. Scored really high (956), but it didn't feel like I was doing that well at all during the exam. I thought the exam sucked, actually. Even spelling errors?? I spent 30min on one of the sims, but couldn't get one of the main objectivs working. Well, the config must have been correct, otherwise I doubt I would have scored as high as I did. Probably the emulator just decided to not work properly...
Because of bad info from my testing center, I also had to resit the CCNA, which I did immediately after passing SWITCH. And especially when comparing the two exam one after another there's just no comparison in terms of quality of the questions. Since I didn't study/revise for the CCNA this time around, I didn't score as high as I did on the switch exam, though. But that's my fault, not the exam's.
edit:
Materials used: Nuggets BCMSN, Cisco BCMSN cert guide, Boson SWITCH, all of which were excellent. Although the Boson wasn't as rediculously awesome as their CCNA product.
