Test Preparation, Test-Taking Tips, and Using This Topic
This section contains recommendations that can increase your probability of passing the CCIE
written exam.
If you do not already have the CCNA certification, you should pursue that certification before
you attempt the CCIE tests. Even though CCNA certification is not a CCIE prerequisite,
achieving CCNA certification gives you a chance to become familiarized with Cisco's
computer-based test taking procedures and with Cisco test questions. Preparing for the CCNA
exam helps you identify internetworking topics you might not be familiar with and that you
need to master to become a CCIE.
Additional suggestions for using this topic and preparing for the exam are as follows:
•
Read the test objectives listed in this chapter and thoroughly read the chapters on topics
that you are not familiar with. Use the assessment tools provided in this topic to identify
areas where you need additional assistance. The assessment tools include the “Do I Know
This Already?” quizzes, the Q & A questions, and the sample exam questions on the
CD-ROM.
•
Take all quizzes in this topic and review the answers and the answer explanations. It is not
enough to know the correct answer. You must also know why it is correct and why the
others are incorrect. Retake the chapter quizzes until you pass with 100 percent.
•
Take the CD-ROM test in this topic and review the answers. Use your results to identify
areas where you need additional preparation.
•
Review other documents, RFCs, and Cisco's web site for additional information. If an
outside source is referenced in this topic, it's a good idea to spend some time looking at
it. Remember, this topic doesn't teach you everything you need to know for the exam, but
it does help you identify the areas you need to spend more time on.
•
Review the command-line interface environment on Cisco routers and switches.
•
Review the chapter questions and CD-ROM questions the day before your scheduled test.
Review each chapter's “Foundation Summary” when you are making your final
preparations.
