Did you take notes?

Hi everyone,

Just a quick one…

I’m currently going through the JITL course and was wondering if there’s anyone here who passed CCNA without taking notes?

I’m not a note taker and the idea of taking notes puts me off studying to be honest. I feel like I’d learn more listening and following along rather than taking notes and feeling the need to rewind the video to hear what he says if I miss something taking notes. If note taking makes it much easier as a whole, I’m happy to push my way through.

What is your experience with/without taking notes?

Thanks in advance!

Passed Network+ Today!

Hi everybody,

Just wanted to share that I passed Network+ today with a score of 833/900.

Here are the resources I used:

- Andrew Ramdayal course (highly recommend. The teaching style suited me much better than Messer and Dion. Didn’t take any notes as the Josh Makador cards helped to cement things)
- Dion practice exams set 1 from Udemy.
- Josh Makador Flashcards: https://youtu.be/8Aj1lgrWpj0 (1600 cards, very good for recall)

The week before the exam, I did this routine each day:

- Targeted learning on weak topics from the previous day’s Dion practice exam (rewatching Andrew Ramdayal course for some topics but AI worked for the majority of things as a refresher)
- Do a fresh Dion exam
- Analyse the right and wrong answers and make a weak topic focus (for the targeted learning for the next day before the fresh Dion exam on that day)
- Anki flashcards from Josh Makador

Let me know if you have any questions about anything and I hope this info helps you!

Dion or Ramdayal Practice Tests for Network+?

Hi everyone,

I have my exam scheduled for 17th August. I’ve completed 1 of Dion’s practice exams and scored 80% but after looking through other threads, I’ve seen that Dion recycles some questions from older Network+ exams or goes out of scope of the exam objectives for N10-009. I have 1 week until the exam so I want to maximise the best use of my time.

I completed the Andrew Ramdayal course and really enjoyed his teaching style which suited me better than Messer and Dion so I was debating whether I get his practice exams instead.

Are Andrew Ramdayal’s exams better and do they more represent the real exam?

What are your thoughts?

Thanks in advance!
