    I took the course many, many years ago. We were all set to take the exam (it was being paid for by the school), but then Cisco changed the exam. Everything we learned was from the old format: physical networking, basic configuration of routers and switches, etc. The new format is much tougher from what I remember.

    I still learned enough going through that course to help me in nearly any networking scenario. A CCNA is definitely an impressive certification to put on a resume though!

    Good luck!

    There's alot of things in it which may make you feel you aren't cut out for this, but trust me, just keep pushing through it all.

    Stay up to date. Speaking of up to date, my advice is to hurry up with CCENT. Once more, Cisco is revamping their exams and this would remove the entry level CCENT. From here on it will directly be CCNA, CCNP and CCIE - they're removing CCENT as an entry level certification.
