Customer Reviews

This book is way out of date book.
I'm taking my first Cisco class this summer (fundamentals of networking). Last week, I read this book to try to understand what my Cisco option might be. This gives an overview of the Cisco track exams, which have changed since 1999. It left me more confused after reading the book. This book does do a wonderful job covering advice on studying, job hunting, and testing. The book should be updated.

All the answers I was looking for...and more!
If you are completely new to Cisco certification...spend the money and get this book! It will save you a lot of time. Don't be confused...this book is not a certification study guide, it is a Cisco career-planing guide that should be mandatory reading before you start studying for the Cisco tests. This book not only answered all the questions I had about Cisco certification, it also gave me tips and references on things I hadn't thought about -- studying, finances and taxes, the job search and interviewing, etc. I'm glad I read this book first...while I'm waiting for my "CCNA Certification Kit by Todd Lammle" to arrive. Instead of just jumping in, it has helped me to plan my career.

This book is fabulous and a must to have
If you after the coveted CCIE certification or any other Cisco Certification then this book is a must. Not only are you advised in better words than cisco provide of what you need to do, why you should get certified, how to improve your career once you are certified, the list goes on. This book puts all the information found from many resource in a brilliant book. The price is amazing. There are some great references also at the back of the book. Highly recommended if you would like to know more about Cisco certification.
