Studying For The CCNA (ICND2)

I just cleared my ICND1. So it is time to finally get my CCNA.

I'm going to follow the same method of studying I did for the CCENT.

1. CBT Nuggets

I trust Jeremy Cioara to keep me motivated throughout the whole course. I am going to continue studying with CBTNuggets. If I think I need some other video course, I will buy the David Bombal course on Udemy.

2. Official Cert Guide by Wendell Odom

The OCG for the ICND1 was absolutely amazing. There is so much information that you'll get lost in it. I am going to continue with this book as I need the knowledge.

3. Boson Ex-sim

This was the reason I passed the CCENT. I am going to buy the exma for the CCNA too. I love their explanations and it will give me a real exam experience and I can judge myself when I take their exams.

Hopefully, I get CCNA certified before December. That is the GOAL. I want to complete the certification before my semester exams in college.

Thanks for reading!

Best Reddit Subreddits for Cybersecurity and Hacking!

Reddit is a very useful website for discussions about everything. For cybersecurity and hacking too, it has useful subreddits, in which, you will learn a lot of things you previously had no knowledge of. So, I have compiled a list of security related subreddits. 1. Active and Most helpful subreddits: /r/netsec /r/AskNetsec /r/netsecstudents These three are pretty much it. They have very active communities and are very helpful. I, personally use /r/netsecstudents a lot because I'm still in the process of learning and that subreddit(if you look properly) will tell you how to make a career in every security field. 2. Security Certification Subreddits: r/CompTIA (for Security+) r/ccna (for CCNA and CCNA Security, also r/ccnp for CCNP) r/CEH (for CEH) r/cissp (Certified Information Systems Security Professional) r/oscp (Offensive Security Certified Professional) Really helpful if you're doing any of these Certs. 3.
