If you are reading this article chances are that you are looking for some practice tests that you can take to tell if you are ready for the CCNA Exam or not. However, I wanted to talk about why avoiding them will actually end up helping you and making you even more prepared for my CCNA Exam.

Most people depend on taking practice tests way too much. What I mean by this is they most people will spend more time taking them and looking over their answers then they do spend actually building networks and programming routers and switches. Kind of goes against the whole point in getting your CCNA Certification in the first place since the whole point of the exam is to see if you can correctly configure routers and switches and not just see if you are good at memorizing answers.

I'm going to explain why I think taking practice tests is a waste of time and what you should do instead to gauge how well prepared you are for taking the actually CCNA Exam.

Taking one or two practice tests is okay so that you can get an idea of what the actually CCNA Exam might be like and so that you can test your knowledge of important topics. But I would avoid taking too many or taking the same one over and over again.

What happens with practice tests when you take them multiple times is that you start to memorize the answers, but not really learn anything about why those are the right answers and how to apply those answers to real world applications. Because you have started to memorize the right answers you are getting better and better scores and so you think you are ready to take the actual exam. But this can be a huge mistake because the actual exam is most likely going to ask you different questions then the ones you memorized on the practice exam and you won't know how to answer them correctly.

Instead of practice tests I recommend testing your own knowledge yourself using a blank sheet of paper. On the top of that sheet of paper write out one core topic from your CCNA Study Guide and then write down everything you can possibly remember about that topic. Once you can't possibly write anything more down check you answers and see what you missed. Then repeat the process with another topic. This way for me has been far more effective then taking hundreds of practice tests.
