Passed my CCENT today with a 947, much easier than expected. Should have my CCNA by January, and then need my Security+ in the spring. But I was wondering if there is much call for IT people with MS, Cisco, and CompTIA certs. My current job requires the CompTIA and I really enjoy both the Cisco and Microsoft lines. Is it ultimately better to specialize or have broad certs across the major vendors?

Any good practice tests that aren't actual test answers for the ICND2? Been looking and I can't really find anything.

God I hope this is true because the way some of these questions are written really pisses me off.

Unrelated: Testout also likes to focus their quizzes on things they haven't bothered to teach you yet/hid in some two page text file.

Taking an AD class right now with TestOut and it is poo poo. I miss my Cisco CCNA courses, now that was pretty well written!(except for the blatant adverts that were randomly shoved into parts of the curriculum)

Passed the Security+ exam! It wasn't too bad, but some of those questions are incredibly subjective. The perfect CompTIA mix of too easy and overly nit-picking.

100 questions for the N10-006.

Man gently caress you comptia.

Maybe i should go with the CCENT? It's under a hundred loving questions, will ensure my chances of getting an entry level help desk position (and a networking position when i get the actual experience to go with it:v:)

id be killing alot of birds with one stone.

The CCENT is more respectable than the Net+(kinda), and its 50% of the CCNA. Downsides: I've done both, the CCENT is harder. CompTIA wants memorization, Cisco wants understanding. And the tests reflect that.
