This review is from: Routing Protocols and Concepts, CCNA Exploration Labs and Study Guide (Paperback)
great labs, but too many review questions when the answers are not there, or online to check yourself. Typically we are adults in this class, answers would only help be sure we are not closing the book with the wrong answer written in, and not knowing.

Very helpful for Labs and review!, By
This review is from: Routing Protocols and Concepts, CCNA Exploration Labs and Study Guide (Paperback)
The Routing Protocols and Concepts Labs and Study Guide book has been really helpful for me. As a NetAcad student, I found myself going back and rereading each section online to remember the concepts I learned. This book helped me reinforce my concepts and remember the material covered in this course. With fill-in-the-blanks,matching, and study guides in every chapter, I was able to remember all that I learned. There are also a lot of labs for each chapter, which helped me improve my troubleshooting skills and increase my knowledge. The topologies of the labs were different than the ones you find in the original online NetAcad course, so you get more practice too! You also get a CD with this book which has all the labs and packet tracer files. I brought this book to help me review my vocabulary, practice labs, and get more troubleshooting experience, and this book does just that! I'm satisfied with my purchase.

This review is from: Routing Protocols and Concepts, CCNA Exploration Labs and Study Guide (Paperback)
I had to purchase this book to go along with the companion study guide. I purchased it for a class that I was taking to get a networking degree. I used the book for 8 weeks and I only completed 40 pages out of it. I was very disappointed to find out that there wasn't any answer guide to go along with it. I wanted to go back after the course and do some more of the coursework but wondered if the answers would be right or wrong in some of the labs. There wasn't any way to figure that out. I then began wondering how the professor checked the answers also. Seemed to be a big waste of money and time. The fill-in-the-blanks seemed to be a waste also.
