bye bye

 I have a question for anyone who may have an answer.

I am 3 classes away from my degree in networking and I have begun studying for the Cisco CCNA certification. has anyone here ever taken the exam and if so how difficult is it? I understand that it is the hardest  yet most sought after certification in the networking industry. Ido have a full inderstanding of networking and am presently working in switching and router environments though not in the Cisco world. I presently work with cross connect machines such as Titans, Heikemians, Flashwave and Flm. I am becoming more fluent in the workings of command line interface but I am a lover of GUI's. I understand that you need a firm ability in both to pass the CCNA.

Any advice would be appreciated.

I know that this is not a news posting but I did not know where a proper posting would be for this.
