I was pleased to receive this product for interview when it was first put out. After viewing the video's, I realized that they were a solid asset for studying the CCNP SWITCH exam. However, they don't cover all topics (but it only costs $35), and I realized that one will need more to be prepared when stepping into the exam room. The video's will definitely give you a solid understanding of the topics covered, as david hucaby has a way of compressing all the hooblah and giving you the main points in a very understandable way. The quick reference is a gem, in my opinion. It covers the topics on the switch exam and hits home with even more topics than the vid's. The flash cards, well, are hard! And that's what you need in order to be prepared for the way Cisco asks questions on an exam. This product is a great asset for the buck and I would recommend it along with a Cisco Press book on SWITCH as well.

This kit definitely blends in well with my own notes and other study materials I use as I prepare for my SWITCH exam. The videos are very clear; David Hucaby doesn't even come close to stuttering or a hiccup at all throughout all the videos which is quite impressive. He obviously took a great deal of time rehearsing to deliver a clear and consistent learning video series. The videos are setup to give you the ability to take notes, draw out the topologies and then see it all in action in the device CLI. This adds a great deal of value to visual learners like me. The topologies are often annotated and highlighted in certain spots while David Hucaby is talking to help explain what he's covering. Then shortly after he jumps in the CLI and shows you the perspective from the console.Like I mentioned David Hucaby speaks very clearly and at a very consistent pace so this helped with note taking. It's very easy to go back and forth during the video to take notes or review something... Read more
