This past week has been crazy because I’ve been very busy doing homework for the five classes that I’m taking at BSU and did not study as much as I would have liked for my ICND1 exam. This morning I decided to wake up at 4:00am and brush up on a few topics before my [...]

Okay, tomorrow is my big day for my ICND1 Exam! And I really need to pass this time! It is becoming increasingly difficult to keep up with my homework while also preparing myself for the ICND1. I have several things that I need to study tonight that I want to make sure I have a [...]

Hahaha, I really didn’t want to get to Day 30 and not have my CCENT Certification yet, but I still have 3 more days until I can retake my exam. I just wanted to give a quick update on how I’m doing and let everyone know that I’m very excited to take my exam again [...]

Today, I studied about the Cisco Discovery Protocol or CDP for short. Honestly, I’ve never used the command before. I guess I never have had to because I’ve always set up my own local networks and have had physical access to equipment to see what interface a cable was plugged into and stuff like that. [...]

I took my exam today…. I did not pass I got a 705 and I needed to get an 804 to pass. I pretty much ran out of time around question 30. There are 50 questions and so I pretty much went through the last questions really fast before I got to about question 46 [...]

Okay, this morning I finished my reading my Cisco book. So, now I at least know all the topics on the ICND1 Exam. I still need to go over and review each chapter to make sure I remember all the things I need to know. As I was reading sometimes I lose my concentration and [...]

Just so you know if I take my ICND1 Exam this Thursday I will end up getting my CCENT in 26 Days! Not 30 which will actually be quite cool. However I feel like the pressure is really on now. I still have to balance school and work and drive 2 hours each way to [...]

Alright, I have 10 more days to go! I started studying chapter 5 this morning. It is all about WANs. It is actually a pretty short chapter so I should be able to finish it by tomorrow. Today I just did not feel like studying. Have you ever had one of those days? But I [...]

I finally finished chapter 4 this morning after studying for more than 2.5 hours. I really just wanted to get it done today so I didn’t let anything get in my way. I think besides the whole fact that I can’t take my ICND1 Exam here in Boise, I’m still on track to being ready [...]
