Icnd2 - passed!!!!!

Hi Everybody,
I just got home from passing the ICND2 exam 854/1000. I studied for it about 7 months after failing the prior ICND2 exam twice. This feels amazing. It has been so much work. I prepared using Odom and my lab. I crushed the switching questions (91%), and I give credit to having 4x2950s. Those switches taught me lessons that the book never could.

I want to thank many people on this forum for answering all my various questions over the months.

See you in the CCNP forum!!!

Congratulations on the pass!

Was this version of the ICND2 easier than the previous one?
How did the four switches teach you the lessons that the book never could? I'm thinking about buying two switches.

Congrats on the pass, I'm in full agreement about buying the kit. I'm studying and having the kit is a definite help.

I wouldn't call easier but it is different, example: it does not have access lists and vtp, but it does have FHRP, ROAS, SNMP, and more.

The 4 switches brought the material to life. I got mine for $25 each and the hands on experience drove home the lessons much harder than reading. Don't get me wrong, Odom is awesome.

EDIT:: I would like to add that I did watch Keith Barkers CCNA playlist on Youtube and the CBTnuggets free trial.
