    Yap, i'm attempting the ccna exam for the first time tomorrow :) Been studying for it for a long time now, did a boot camp last month to cram everything i studied into my brain again, been doing simulation lab after simulation lab on packet tracer, and non stop reading...

    wish me luck :cool

    Oh, is that all?:-D I just looked it up on Google and went to a site that had an practice exam (I won't post the link because WoT gave it an 'unsatisfactory'). After looking it over, over half of which I didn't understand anyway, I'm going to quadtruple my good luck wishes!

    May all the things stored in your brain you've learned while studying be accessible to you during your test. :)

    Good luck Steve

    Sorry to here that, Steve. Nothing like have to take a test like that again. :(

    Do they offer it whenever you want to take it, or do you have to wait until a certain time?

    Honestly, its less than a 50:50 chance to pass that thing on the first or even second try. Everyone i know didnt pass first try, most didnt pass second try. I really went in there obviously to try to pass, but really just to see what it was about and what i was in for. I can schedule the exam again in 5 days. Ill probably schedule it in 10 days to give me more time so i dont have to take it a third time... $250 test...

    Sorry Steve, better luck next time. Sounds like taking the bar exam, not many do it on the first try.

    Its probably similar. Its hard to know how prepared for the test i was until i took it.

    I was thinking of Kathy and her studies. Wonder how shes doing with that?

    Hang in there, my friend....you'll make it;) Granted, you may go bankrupt in the process, but you WILL make it. Man, $250.00 to take a test, but I can imagine that passing that test sure won't hurt your career any!

    Well, it's no shame not passing that one the first time around. At least you'll be better prepared for the next round. Good luck, Steve.

    Hey Steve

    Sorry the first time out was a miss, but second time will be a hit, TBH with these sorts of things 2 or 4 times to pass is not uncommon, like driving tests!

    Good luck for next time.

    I was sitting in the test center and i laughed at my score when the test was over. The score was there with a bold Fail under it. Was pretty funny actually.

    I'll get it one of these days. Thanks for the good luck wishes everyone. Much appreciated. :)
