I decided to get my CCNA last summer after losing out on a senior role because I didn't have it. I signed up for the free CCST training and completed Network and Cybersecurity, tested in January.

I used a bunch of other Cisco resources and some 3rd party training to continue on. I just completed all the coursework.

Got 80% on a practice test today.
I got every subnetting, binary, or hex question correct.
Fuk ya. And I have a list of shit to review.

I'm an old fukin man. I wasn't sure if I was still sharp enough.
2 weeks from now. I'm gonna pass this test.

Thanks!

Ya, I used Cisco U. I've waded through many hours of vendor propaganda and got an incidental Meraki cert along the way.

I want the CCNA credential. Its done me tons of good getting this far. I know so much more now.

But I mostly need that silly badge.
