definitely need more practice, rough for non-networking pro like me, still enjoying the ride though.

Whew, sorry dude. But you are close! Keep the pressure on and focus on the week areas and the topics that caught you up on the test.

You are close!

[deanwebb]

Look at a test failure as part of your study. Now you know some of what can happen, so you can go back and hit those topics again. Please come by my study questions in the guides section here and see if they help direct you to study where you were weak. If not, let me know what can be added to help direct you further towards your goal.

We all take that test with you, when you go in to take it. We all share your joy when you pass and we all share your resolve to come back stronger when you fall short.

don't let it get you down,  first time I had to renew my CCNA, I failed by like 3 points, pissed me off to no end. had a F Cisco attitude for about 4 years. Then I really needed to get that test and cert under my belt to advance myself in networking, and killed it the next time. 

[ggnfs000]

just decided, enough is enough and took it. did not work out either.

It's a great cert to have, though, so don't quit out. Take some time and get back in there.

If it helps any I failed my CCNA 4 times over the course of 3 years. 5th times a charm!

Then only failed two CCNP exams out of 12 (old SWITCH and ARCH) . ARCH didnt count as it was two weeks old and a pill of dog shit at the time.

CCIE written took 4 times to pass and lab took 4 as well.

For those dense like I am it just takes a couple extra beatings into the head to get it.

Gotta strongly counsel against harakiri, does NOT look good on a resume.

Not only harakiri, slow painful one lasting for a days.

Thats tough man...definitely don't give up! I'm taking mine this month.

Not going to lie but getting thrown to the wolves was the best thing that ever happened to me in this industry. I have learned sooo much. Hands on makes the topics make so much more sense.

Hang in there dude! You can do it!

[deanwebb]

Best way to learn is through fixing mistakes!
