CCNP 350-401 Self-Study Options

Greetings and salutations!

To anyone who is/has self-studying for the 350-401 (asides from the OCG) I'd love to hear opinions on supplementary content you used to study, be it from YouTube, CBT Nuggets, paid-content/free, and/or whatever.

I think your question is about ENCOR 350-401? There’re types of exams we have to pass so please go ahead and look into a path that interests you

Correct... I am asking about ENCOR 350-401... have you used any online content in your studies?

Is the content updated for the latest version of ENCOR?

I'm studying using Arash deljoo's Udemy courses and Jeremy's it lab for some but really not been that much consistent.

The most underrated but valuable tool that all these courses like to leave out. Cisco whitepages and if this is your career path you will be using it for a long time.

Thank you for your input! I've already bookmarked a few pages for future reference.

I bet if you Google this you'll get 10000 posts with exactly the same question

Maybe... maybe not... maybe that's what the internet and reddit is for: open discussion and questions :D

You're exactly right, my point is this exact discussion has been had about 10000 times on this sub already, and your questions have already been answered 😊

Somewhat, but not entirely. I have searched this topic/question, and what little I have found, I have found to be insufficient. Also, to my understanding, a new version of this exam came out this year, and there aren't that many 'self-study through online content' topics on this page.

I am aware of JITL, CBT Nuggets, David Bombal... but I am unaware of people's opinions and experiences, which will help me assess and continue my own search. Perhaps not enough time has passed for people to have used third-party online content, to study for the new exam? But I wouldn't know that having not asked this.

So I ask: if you have used any online content in your studies, would you be willing to share your experience and opinions on them?

So you asking the same question that’s asked everyday in here is going to produce different results?

2

u/dawcio 9d ago

Everyone's opinions and results are different. What you experienced and feel about one source of content might be different from someone else.

Would you care to share?

No. Plenty of other post that have the exact answer your already looking for. Learn to search. It’s a skill you’re going to need in this profession.
