material covered in questions you missed.

      3. Answer all of the review questions related to each chapter. (The answers appear in the Appendix.) Note the questions that confuse you, and study the topics they cover again until the concepts are crystal clear. And again – do not just skim these questions! Make sure you fully comprehend the reason for each correct answer. Remember that these will not be the exact questions you will find on the exam, but they're written to help you understand the chapter material and ultimately pass the exam!

      4. Try your hand at the bonus practice questions that are exclusive to this book. The questions can be found only at http://sybextestbanks.wiley.com. And be sure to check out www.lammle.com/ccna for the most up-to-date Cisco exam prep questions, videos, Todd Lammle boot camps, and more.

      5. Test yourself using all the flashcards, which are also found on the download link. These are brand-new and updated flashcards to help you prepare for the CCNA and are a wonderful study tool!

      To learn every bit of the material covered in this book, you'll have to apply yourself regularly, and with discipline. Try to set aside the same time period every day to study, and select a comfortable and quiet place to do so. I'm confident that if you work hard, you'll be surprised at how quickly you learn this material!

      If you follow these steps and really study using the review questions, the practice exams, the Todd Lammle video sections, and the electronic flashcards, – it would actually be hard to fail the Cisco exams. But understand that studying for the Cisco exams is a lot like getting in shape – if you do not go to the gym every day, it's not going to happen!

      Where Do You Take the Exams?

      You may take the ICND1, ICND2, or CCNA R/S Composite or any Cisco exam at any of the Pearson VUE authorized testing centers. For information, check www.vue.com or call 877-404-EXAM (3926).

      To register for a Cisco exam, follow these steps:

      1. Determine the number of the exam you want to take. (The ICND1 exam number is 100-105, ICND2 is 200-105, and CCNA R/S Composite is 200-125.)

      2. Register with the nearest Pearson VUE testing center. At this point, you will be asked to pay in advance for the exam. At the time of this writing, the ICND1 and ICND2 exams are $150, and the CCNA R/S Composite exam is $300. The exams must be taken within one year of payment. You can schedule exams up to six weeks in advance or as late as the day you want to take it – but if you fail a Cisco exam, you must wait five days before you will be allowed to retake it. If something comes up and you need to cancel or reschedule your exam appointment, contact Pearson VUE at least 24 hours in advance.

      3. When you schedule the exam, you'll get instructions regarding all appointment and cancellation procedures, the ID requirements, and information about the testing-center location.

      Tips for Taking Your Cisco Exams

      The Cisco exams contain about 40 to 50 questions and must be completed in about 90 minutes or less. This information can change per exam. You must get a score of about 85 percent to pass this exam, but again, each exam can be different.

      Many questions on the exam have answer choices that at first glance look identical – especially the syntax questions! So remember to read through the choices carefully because close just doesn't cut it. If you get commands in the wrong order or forget one measly character, you'll get the question wrong.

      Also, never forget that the right answer is the Cisco answer. In many cases, more than one appropriate answer is presented, but the correct answer is the one that Cisco recommends. On the exam, you will always be told to pick one, two, or three options, never “choose all that apply.” The Cisco exam may include the following test formats:

      ■ Multiple-choice single answer

      ■ Multiple-choice multiple answer

      ■ Drag-and-drop

      ■ Router simulations

      Cisco proctored exams will not show the steps to follow in completing a router interface configuration, but they do allow partial command responses. For example, show run, sho running, or sh running-config would be acceptable.

      Here are some general tips for exam success:

      ■ Arrive early at the exam center so you can relax and review your study materials.

      ■ Read the questions carefully. Don't jump to conclusions. Make sure you're clear about exactly what each question asks. “Read twice, answer once,” is what I always tell my students.

      ■ When answering multiple-choice questions that you're not sure about, use the process of elimination to get rid of the obviously incorrect answers first. Doing this greatly improves your odds if you need to make an educated guess.

      ■ You can no longer move forward and backward through the Cisco exams, so double-check your answer before clicking Next since you can't change your mind.

      After you complete an exam, you'll get immediate, online notification of your pass or fail status, a printed examination score report that indicates your pass or fail status, and your exam results by section. (The test administrator will give you the printed score report.) Test scores are automatically forwarded to Cisco within five working days after you take the test, so you don't need to send your score to them. If you pass the exam, you'll receive confirmation from Cisco, typically within two to four weeks, sometimes a bit longer.
