This review is from: CCNA Virtual Test Center (Paperback)
I purchased this bundle in order to get more practive questions for my ccna exam. And in all fairness to the software i did end up passing the exam partly thanks to the Sybex software. Some of the things I liked about the testing engine is that you can configure the types of questions you want and what type of testing scheme you'd like. You can run them in practice mode and get explanations for each answer or you can do timed test mode.
The BIG BIG problem i have with this bundle is that it was filled with mistakes. It uses terms like "fastforward" switching. I mean terms that don't even exist. And it uses them not as fake alternatives, it actually teaches you these terms as if they existed. Another example is the Router#copy ios tftp command it uses. As far as I know the right command is copy flash tftp. Well anyways. There are a handful more mistakes like that throughout the testing engine. And i find that extremely annoying. Not only because I don't like to shell out fifity bucks for defective product, but also because the ccna exam is very unforgiving. A few incorrect answers and you fail that exam. So there is really no room for inaccuracy when it comes to cisco examinations.
Anbother issue that really bothered me was the fact that the explanations for some commands that I'd never heard of before point you to certain chapters in Todd Lammle's CCNA study guide. Well guess what when you turn to look them up, they are not even covered there. Thats not good folks. Specially since the study guide and the software are supposed to compliment each other.
So I'm disappointed with sybex.
