Why People Fail Cisco Exams

http://www.howtonetwork.net

There is only one reason people fail the CCNA or any other

Cisco exam. No matter what they say such as:

Ran out of time

Couldn't get the network up

Didn't understand the question

Nerves got the better of me

Got stuck in multi-part question

etc.

The reason for exam failure is lack of preparation. And

before you get angry at me I failed my first attempt and

it was due to lack of preparation. I still hadn't nailed

subnetting (back in 2001) but decided to try my luck.

Five subnetting questions and one failure later I went

home licking my wounds.

I've just gotten off the phone with one studend who has

just failed and they are very dejected as you can imagine.

It was avoidable. I have written several articles on

what you need to do in order to pass. The number one tip

is to never attempt the real exam until you are getting

95% or more in your practise exams. Either with my

deviously hard CCNA exams:

Or exams for some other quality provider (not that I

know any other decent ones).

I spell it all out here:
