Any last minute advice for me. I am going to appear for my CCNA exam on 5th October.

Hey everyone, our community is now a little over one month old and what a start it has been 🚀 First of all, a big congratulations to @Ojas Sharma and @Héctor V a for passing the CCNA exam this month! 🏆 Huge achievement and very inspiring for all of us. A special shoutout to our 3 most active members of the month: 1. @Dan Ben 2. @Ojas Sharma 3. @Héctor V a Your contributions, questions, and support have really set the tone for this community 👏 (And fun fact: statistically speaking, the most active members are also the ones who pass the fastest 😉) Also, I want to thank each and every one of you 🙏 In just our first month, we’ve already grown to 94 members. Seeing so many of you show up and engage has been amazing. I’m also working on a very cool new resource that will be published in the next few days and I’m convinced it will bring tremendous value to everyone here. So it’s definitely worth staying active and engaged so you don’t miss it 👀 From next week onward, we’ll move into our new format: a weekly Sunday recap. Every Sunday we’ll celebrate the most engaged members, highlight the best posts, share updates, and cheer for community wins together. This is just the beginning!

What Labs should i be focusing on for the test?

It feels like a dream come true, and I can hardly put my happiness into words — now I’ve reached the stage where I’m writing about my exam experience. Today was my exam at a testing center and my experience was full of mixed emotions ! I've been preparing for CCNA for a really long time and the journey has finally come to an end. I'm not gonna give any generic advices since it's all out on in communities and reddit already. But one of THE MOST crucial things during your exam is your time management. I'm from a non-English native country and hence I got 30 mins extra but boy if this time extension wouldn't be allotted to me my scores would've been much worse, I finished with hardly 4-5 minutes to spare even after getting extra time. My only key advice is to manage your time efficiently please ! Otherwise you might get questions wrong even after knowing the correct answer under time pressure. Some exam technicalities - I had 4 labs at the very beginning of the exam followed by 69 total questions. The labs were all familiar and surprisingly i completed all of them (altho i must say it took me 50 minutes just to complete all labs). You should be VERY confident in reading routing tables and choosing what's the best route to a certain destination ip would be. WLC questions were twisted, they covered certain sections of the WLC GUI which i didn't even see before. I hardly got them right. Rest just lab and lab as much as you can and do practice subnetting a lot ! My scores - Automation and Programmability - 60% Network Access - 50% IP connectivity - 88% IP services - 75% Security Fundamentals - 40% Network Fundamentals - 60% My study resources - Neil Andersons's Udemy course (his anki + labs), Boson ExSim, JITL (only videos and labs), CBTNuggets (WLC section), Keith Barker (for areas I was weak in) and lots n lots of chatgpt. To everyone preparing for it - I believe in you, it's not rocket science but yes it takes time. Definitely worth it. Good luck to everyone, much love <3
