Not feeling too confident to be honest.

Does anyone know what is coming up a lot in the recent tests?

I have got the OSI model pretty much printed out and stapled in to my brain. But all the cables and connectors are being a nightmare to remember

No....but now I am going to be busy for the rest of the night and tomorrow reading through it over and over and over again.

 

Keep studying. Go in with a positive attitude. Good luck.

 

Hehe.. glad to be of assistance

 

Good luck on the exam.

 

how much did you pay for the exam?

 

I think it was £186.63.

 

What is a rough estimate of the percentage to pass the exam?

In some practice tests I have been getting from 72% to 85%. Hopefully some cramming tomorrow before the test will help increase that too.

 

According to their website:

• Number of Exam Parts: One
• Number of Questions: 85
• Exam Format: Conventional; situational and identification multiple-choice questions
• Exam Duration: 90 minutes
• Recommended Experience: CompTIA A+ and nine months networking experience recommended, but not required
• Minimum Passing Score: The exam is graded on a scale of 100 - 900 and 554 is the minimum passing score

 

Passed with 562.

I was not prepared at all for the exam. Even though I had read through the N+ blog from Mal and the Sybex book, some of the questions in that exam, I had never heard of the stuff.

But a pass is a pass, and I am sure I will never need the OSI again, unless it crops up in Who Wants To Be A Millionaire as the Million question.

Thanks for the help, especially Malnomates, some of the stuff in that thread made things so easy to understand it made networking simple.

 

Congrats on the pass!

Don't throw OSI away completely - knowing it helps a fair bit when diagnosing some networking problems.

Harry.

 

Well done

 

Congrats ont the pass.

 

Congrats!

Unfortunately, the OSI model will follow you around for years to come...

 

Congratulations!
As they say: OSI will haunt you
