I am quite shocked at how many obvious errors there are in the CCNA Routing and Switching Flash Cards that I just purchased. A number (ten or more) of them have very egregrious errors. Example: a question for which none of 'answers' in the selection of answers are correct. Example: a question that starts out "GRP is a distance vector protocol" when it should be IGRP. Example: Question about an access-list 179, but the supposedly correct answer shows access-list 155. Example: question about subnet mask of 255.255.255.240, how many host id bits are there on this network? Answer selections are 28,6,10,8 (correct answer is 4), and is not even listed, but on back of the card lists answer c (10) as the right answer, but does list a correct narrative that says 4.

There are more examples that I won't inflict on you. Didn't anyone proof read these for correctness? It makes it quite difficult to take the rest of the cards seriously, as there might be other wrong answers that are not as apparent as these ones. I trust that Coriolis will correct these errors and republish them, however, when I checked their web site today, there were no errata listed.

This is a good study tool, but not a study guide into itself. After taking the CCNA 2.0, alot of the subject material was on, with the execption of the switching/bridging questions, which is why I am giving it four stars instead of five.
