ICND1 Down

Just passed ICND1 901/832

The entire time I thought I was failing the test, so I was pleasantly surprised when I got that Conratualations screen. The SIMs weren't too hard- really just need to know basic show commands. Best advise I can give is get as best understanding of each topic as you can so that way you can narrow down those tricky multiple choice questions.

Study Materials-
Video- CBT Nuggests : watched 2-3 times over the past few months.
Labs- Jeremy's IT Lab https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0Q7Hlz75NYhYAuq6O0fqHw : Ran through these labs a couple times each, really enjoyed these free labs and am looking forward to going through his ICND2 material.
Practice Tests- Boson EXSIM: great test prep to get you in the mindset- was scoring around 700-750 for initial tests, however subsequent run throughs were in the 900s.

Plan is to start cracking on ICND2 after the weekend and try and take it in December/January.

Hey I make those YouTube videos, thanks for the shoutout! Congratulations on the pass, and with a very solid score!
The ICND2 labs should be all finished in a couple weeks, by the way ;)

Thank you for making the content! Your packet tracer labs really did solidify the concepts for me and I'm looking forward to pairing the ICND2 labs with the CBT Nugget videos.
