My take is this. Don’t try to get good at tests, get good at the subject. If you know the subject well, you don’t need to do crazy tricks like before sleep hypnosis or eating memory foods before a test. When I took my A+, I just went in and took it without flash cards or memory exercises because I knew the material very well. All test taking skills create is bunch of people who can’t design a network because they don’t really understand the subject. I’ve seen countless people with a Network+ who don’t understand the layers. They just repeat things like don’t throw away sausage pizza, but never touched Wireshark in the lives.
I'm not going to stop watching your videos #1 and going to sign up for CBT Nuggets #2. Your videos are a great help, I watched on my way to work to refresh myself after 10 years away from Cisco equipment and now I'm jumping right back into IOS CLI, reading, and testing. I'll have a CCNA in no time. Many thanks for your help!
Consistence over time give us Success Hardworking Don't wait till last minutes and study. Consistence! Consistence!! Consistence!!! Is the key to Success. Thanks always for inspiring us
Thank you so much for this, Keith. I've been a little depressed and haven't studied for two weeks :( I was feeling like quite the failure, but this makes me feel a little bit better.
Hang in there. Check out my 5 minute video that overviews the new certs as well. ua-cam.com/video/cdrQTDiD1QI/v-deo.html If you complete your CCNA before 2/24, they will give you the new CCNA! Similar for CCNP as well.
Hey Keith just wanted to say thank you for all the knowledge you provide for us. I joined the marines and was given a job as a network administrator with no knowledge of anything IT until my Sargents helped me a little. Then I tried college to sharpen my skills specifically with Cisco equipment but the professors were so monotone and it was a very unmotivated experience. That’s what I found out about Cbtnuggets and can honestly say that it takes a lot for someone to really get my attention when it comes to education and you exceed it on all levels thank you again.
Enjoying the process is so important but most of us tend to forget it. it makes things easier and much funnier, it gives us confidence and so much more. Again, thanks for the video Keith (and thks for the safety tip as well)
Thank you Keith, for the content of recent months. I'm getting caught up in the sheer volume of things to learn and retain for my CCNA. There is so much to recall, I'm really worried that can forget anything important come exam day (November for me, subsequently ). Is it like you say, info over time is key to retaining all you need? I get easily discouraged from reading / studying when I think about the volume and what I need to retain. Regards.
My ADHD makes study for these exams at the last minute, within two weeks. I repeat the same process each year. I already did it with CCNA, three years in a row that I study in depth within the last two weeks and never complete any of the study materials I invested in. I retake the exam for the third time this week and I failed again for the third time studying consistently for a year. The time blindness hits me hard and I continue to time warp the entire year without looking at my CCNA books, labs, and practice exams. Luckily, I had free vouchers for the last three years, each year from my job. But I will have to take it for the fourth time out of my pocket. Although I did manage to pass the A+ and Network+ cramming for the last two weeks, but with CCNA it is impossible.
The biggest thing makes me nervous is time I will learn it but I can’t rush it and I do excessive hours I know one thing if I never get a job I will still continue to learn this and you sir are phenomenal teacher I wish I had your knowledge
Couldn't agree more with Keith. My attack plan was 1-2 hours/night. I used cisco press books for my main source of info, packet tracer for my simulations/labs, and videos for supplements. My advice is, Lab it up, lab again, and then again. Make the concepts real, otherwise they are just words on a page.
Hi Neebaum! Thanks for the comments. I have a few of those shirts made, and have a few left. If you like in the US, I can send you one as a gift. Send me an email at contact@thekeithbarker.com including your mailing address, shirt size (m,l,xl) and your screen name (Neebaum) to remind me, and I will send you one! Thanks for your participation on this channel.
I'm in the Navy while studying this course. We are cramming a three-month course in one month. It's quite stressful as we test every day. It's ridiculous, and I don't want to fail my final. I'm not that fast a learner and find obtaining all of the information needed this fast difficult. For me, it's all high stakes. If I don't pass this course I don't get the job I worked hard to get.
Don’t let up! I’m taking an CCNA course and my focus\goal is getting a new job and changing my life…. Focus on the end goal and nothing else…YOU’LL GET THIS!
Hello Azim! Been shooting for 15% body fat. Getting measured later this morning, wish me luck. Many of the tips that apply to CCNP and CCIE also apply to CCNA. Will keep your request in mind! Thank you Azim.
Hi Dos! There is a fairly new Cisco meetup group in Vegas. After I speak at Cisco Live in San Diego next week, I am planning on attending some of those events. Meeting at one of those is a good option. Would love to meet you.
Hey Keith, can you tell us about the new exams? Specifically automation and programmability. Im due to renew my CCNA next year and then I saw the announcement that a new exam will be live on Feb 2020. Im afraid there might be too big of a gap from my current knowledge compared to the new exam. 😊 🙏
One of the best training options for the current CCNA R/S and CCNA Security and CCNA Wireless is CBTNuggets.com (I work there). It is subscription based, but you can sign up for a free 7 day trial and check us out. I haven't seen the Pluralsight offering, so I can't speak to how effective it is or not. Best wishes!
The crammed for the ccna 1 and I didn't do well in that. Now I study, do labs and I have done much better. I work now in the industry now and most of the things I study for come in my line of work
Can i ask you answer me plz im just wanna know the best path to begin the IT wich the best certification to begin white it . im know studying my comptia a+ then i go across cisco certifications can you advice me plz
Hi Taoufik! Thanks for the question. For a brand new person, a good path would be: CompTIA A+ CompTIA Network+ Cisco CCNA (either CCENT first, or the composite CCNA R/S exam) That is a great path, and much of what you learn in Network+ will be useful in the Cisco CCENT and CCNA R/S as well. Enjoy the journey!
So long as you keep at each of em, I see nothing wrong with it. I just passed my CCNA and I'm going for CCDA and CCNA Collab. It's a lot to do, but it can be done.
For me, I like to focus on one cert at a time. However, I learned early on that the skills and what I learn while preparing for one cert exam, are often useful in other exams as well. Examples include CompTIA Network+, then CCENT or CCNA/Route Switch. Lots of similar skills and knowledge in all of those. Thanks for the question.
@@mdtaylor2274 thanks man. I studied fairly long. I was lazy to be honest, so it took almost a year after passing ccent. I had no networking experience and I'm currently working helpdesk, while working with our network admin :)
@@bryces3595 that's great though. Rome wasn't built in a day and I can respect your time and dedication. Hope you keep climbing up the ladder to success.
how can we overcome the issue of forgetting in networking ? whenever we jump into a new topic mostly the old topic is vanished from memory , i am talking here mostly about switching and services STP/HSRP/IP SLA configuration and lot's of another topics specially if we not gonna deal with it at daily work , i imagine how i am gonna be a CCIE someday if i can't dig this silly topics of ccna into my mind.
Keep your notes and brush up, sometimes it's just enough to know that you've done it before and have the step by step notes or a formula etc. on hand or on the internet. You can't fully retain stuff until you've done it at least a few times.
The old CCNA exam is available through 2/23/2020. After that it is the new CCNA. Check out my other video on the New CCNA cert. If you pass the old (current) exam before 2/24/2020 Cisco will give you the new CCNA Cert.
Oregon is beautiful. Also visited the last BlockBuster store (in Bend Oregon) on Wednesday, and will be going to a Rodeo tonight in Sisters Oregon. Wonderful state.
Thanks for the heads up with Udemy. Legal is working with them now. Regarding the weight, I am competing to get to 15% or lower body fat. Weigh in is this morning in about 1 hour. I feel the same type of nerves I would have before taking a certification exam. Am making a short video about the weigh-in and test taking strategies and tips. Those will be available in a few days. Stay tuned, and thanks for the questions!
@@KeithBarker you're such a champ! I'll be picking up your CCNA course pretty soon. Just having a hard time squeezing in time for work (alliance manager at Cisco), the wife and hospital trips to take care of my injured foot. The hardest part is finding a solid mentor for networking. I'm new to my job and most people just too busy. Keep up the great work and I love your dedication 🙏
Keith, how would someone, for this example me that has been studying for the past two months on the ICDN1, know when ready to take the exam? I apologize if the question and sounds stupid.
I took ICND1 last week. It focuses on technologies and concepts rather than configurations. The only configuration that I got is on VLAN and Trunking. I took multiple practice tests that are available on the internet to add to my confidence in taking the exam. I also studied the review questions on Tod Lammle's book. I believe I remember some items on my exam that is included in that book. Keep reviewing man and goodluck :)
Freddy Calderon Let me add some info. Make sure to study the "show" commands and familiarize the output for those commands. Then you will solve the majority of the simulations and simlet questions. The concepts and technologies are the ones that makes the exam hard in my opinion ONLY. But of course, since you will take the exam on July, take consideration that the exam may be updated by Cisco. So make sure you have strong foundation on networking. You can do it.
@@ronaldinho031003 thanks again. I took the previous ICDN1 exam back in 2015 or 2016 before they updated it to v3 but I rushed into the study material and lacked in a few topics. Also, ran out of time and left about 6 or 7 unanswered questions.
If you have some prior knowledge of networking like you understand 'somewhat' of sub-netting, interface configuration, and maybe workings of some protocols and you study giving at least 4 hours a day, you should pass it within three weeks but point is, to be consistent. Give those four hours and plan it. Don't waste them on this and that, no. Work on the topics they have given you and it should be fine
Thank you for the question. When you can read through the blueprint, and say that you understand each of the topics, and for those that say "configure" you can also configure those topics, that is a good indication you are ready.
Thank you! I have a few left. If I can ship to the US, I can send you one as a gift. Let me know at contact@thekeithbarker.com Include size (m,l,xl) and mailing address and remind me in the email of your UA-cam handle Tech Mafia. Cheers!
I have been studying for the ccent exam for the last 4 months , tutorials , summaries , labs and a whole bunch of practice exam just to fail by 16 points , the passing score was 832 and i got 816 , i am sooo disappointed in myself , this happened today 😢😢😢😢😢 , it feels like i threw my money away , i don't care that much about money cuz money comes and goes , but not gonna lie , it hurt me a little bit, ok maybe more than a little hhhhh
i don't know if anyone can help here but am a lazy ass person i have tried all the motivation available yet can't break my laziness or the inability to study continuously
Let's start by 1 small habit, and see if you can do it for 3 days straight. Something small, something easy to do, and easy to track. Let me know what you start with. 1 small habit at a time, and then as you see you can do it, other small habits can be added. You can do it. Also check out my videos on this channel about success. There are several gems that you can use, if you would like to, to change and improve. It is worth it to take the small steps. They add up to big differences for you. You can do it.
@@majdqenaya50 although I was joking above... I can relate with you so much. It's not easy to squeeze in the efforts of learning something new. Especially while you're doing your normal job and life. I'm in the same boat but I surround myself with positive people who believe in me. I highly recommend following Keith and maybe a couple of other guys to keep yourself motivated. I just prefer Keith's down to earth and human side. And I used to be EXTREMELY lazy. Never got ahead and finally decided to change my life. It's not easy but you can definitely do it. 👍🏼
if u study CCNA n want to discuss with me , you can whatsapp me +65 90616128. i m going to take CCNA exam in next 4 months. now nearly all subjects completed. my name is Peter from Tamilnadu(India) at present in Singapore.
I wacth your videos since 2014, from patagonia, let me tell you that you look different from the pic in those videos that I saw, and you look now more like Chris Cornell (?)
Good luck Mo. When do take the exam? I am just shooting a video on exam taking strategies that will be release in a few days. If your exam isn't for a while, the video will be helpful. Either way, I wish you the absolute best on your composite CCNA exam!
Hi Donald! Thanks for the comments, and yes. I have been told more than once that some of my pictures remind people of Tony Hawk. Thanks for posting, and I will see you in upcoming videos.
Hi William! Thanks for the post. I see your icon includes A+. Have you taken Network+ ? For many learners, taking Network+ as a stepping stone, and then the CCNA is a good and easy progression. Let me know how I can help.
Hi Mohammed! I am doing well. Am in a competition to get to 15% body fat or lower by this week. Getting official measurements today. Will create a video about it. Wish me luck!

Then good luck lazy ass! 😂
Let's start by 1 small habit, and see if you can do it for 3 days straight. Something small, something easy to do, and easy to track. Let me know what you start with. 1 small habit at a time, and then as you see you can do it, other small habits can be added. You can do it. Also check out my videos on this channel about success. There are several gems that you can use, if you would like to, to change and improve. It is worth it to take the small steps. They add up to big differences for you. You can do it.
@@KeithBarker Thanks, my man. always trying my best
@@majdqenaya50 although I was joking above... I can relate with you so much. It's not easy to squeeze in the efforts of learning something new. Especially while you're doing your normal job and life. I'm in the same boat but I surround myself with positive people who believe in me. I highly recommend following Keith and maybe a couple of other guys to keep yourself motivated. I just prefer Keith's down to earth and human side. And I used to be EXTREMELY lazy. Never got ahead and finally decided to change my life. It's not easy but you can definitely do it. 👍🏼

CCNA by Sept.... Man its a lot of info.
Hi William! Thanks for the post. I see your icon includes A+. Have you taken Network+ ? For many learners, taking Network+ as a stepping stone, and then the CCNA is a good and easy progression. Let me know how I can help.
Hi from Lima Peru.
