MicroNugget: How to Study for Cisco Exams

Tavsif:

In this video, Jeremy Cioara covers several tips that will be helpful as you prepare and study for Cisco exams. He begins with a high-level task: get the exam objectives from the Cisco certification site and structure your learning environment around achieving those objectives. From there, Jeremy breaks down various techniques to help you comprehend and retain the material. Jeremy points out that there’s no standard way to prepare for an exam: your goal is to understand and remember the information you need, and there are numerous ways to do that. Keep the techniques that work and get rid of the ones that don’t. Regardless of individual study tactics, however, always start with the official exam objectives from the source; far too many people study what they think they should know rather than what Cisco determines to be foundational knowledge. Some of the tips Jeremy talks about are the necessity of building a lab environment, various tests you can use to gauge your level of knowledge, and even best practices regarding exam scheduling.
