CCNA Routing and Switching Exam Cram: Exam 640-407

I passed with 946/1000 using this book and several free online practice tests. Everything was straight to the point with very little errors. The chapters and material are also organized well making it easy to follow. The real test was very similar to the practice test in the back of the book. No negative comments..

I read reviews and I never had made one.. but I had to because of the misinformation. There are 3 errors in the Exam Cram books 2 of whick are IP address mismatches from the diagram to the text. The other was a minor spelling error. This book WILL NOT make you pass the CCNA alone.. What I think this book and these series are for is after you have read the big text book or taken a calls you read this cover to cover take the test in the back and when you get all the answers right in the back you go take the test and you pass. For that purpose this book works exactly. I love the exam cram series....

This is the primary book I used to study for the CCNA and it covered everything well enough. To say it was the primary book is a bit misleading, it was pretty much the only book I used. The book is laid out well and easy to understand. The practice test questions are pretty easy, but so are the real test questions. If this book seems to simplistic as it addresses the material, you're probably taking the test too serious; it is an exceptionally easy test. As usual, the Cram Sheet at the front of the book was outstanding, and the text covers that material more than just adequately. This is a very good book to use to prepare for the exam. All in all I think the book is outstanding, but probably rushed to press just a bit too quickly. There were some mistakes, especially in the quizzes, but if you can't catch those mistakes, you probably shouldn't be a CCNA anyway. The mistakes are there, and they are glaring. If you can't catch them, maybe you should try the A+ instead. All things considered this book is well worth the price and an outstanding source for the CCNA test. The book delivers what it promises, and if you are capable of understanding the information and have the practical experience, you'll pass the test.

Cisco Certified Network Associates, CCNA, is not a subject or area to be taken lightly. Routers and switches are highly complex pieces of equipment and only the highly trained should be handling them. To qualify as a CCNA you must pass one of the toughest exam going, this book gives you a hand in doing just that.As with every book I have ever read from Coriolis, this book is well worth the money. While the EXAM Prep books go further into every subject, the Exam Cram will give you the necessary information you require to pass the exam, your job is to study and pass the exam.Breaking down the exam, each chapter simplifies the exam objectives. From the OSI model to router basics to TCP/IP, access list, wan protocols, wide area networking and switching, you'll find what you need. Each Chapter includes the review questions to help you study.For those of you, like myself, that are planning to take the exam, you'll want to spend $29.99 on this book and give yourself every opportunity to pass. Coriolis is trusted name in computer books and this is certainly proof of that.

This is the only book I read. No classes. No Other books. I Passed the CCNA on my first try.
