CCNA Exam Cram (Exam 640-802) (3rd Edition) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)While I am a big fan of the exam-cram series, this is a let down. It still has all the information summarized as much as possible without losing detail but the errors are simply appalling.
As the 640-801 exam has been retired in favour of the 640-802 exam, it seems that the publishers,writers (or whoever) decided to quickly rewrite the previous edition with a few updates and get it out as quick as possible. It seems a shame that they couldnt delay its release by a few weeks and proof read it. Wrong diagrams, missing diagrams and some explanations that are just plain wrong are amongst the errors. Probably most frustrating are the review questions with the wrong diagrams or answers displayed.
Do not use this book without having plenty of other Cisco material handy.
