Whenever a Cisco exam version changes, there’s a lot of buzz online, and the CCNA exams are no exception.
I often hear comments like, “I’ll wait for the new CCNA exam versions before I start studying.” Don’t let this mindset hold you back.
While some publishers might suggest significant changes with each new version, the truth is that the Intro, ICND, and CCNA Composite exams remain largely consistent.
Yes, questions will vary, but only those relying on shortcuts should be concerned. The core topics on the CCNA exams, such as LAN switching, ISDN, Frame Relay, routing protocol behavior, RIP, IGRP, EIGRP, and OSPF, remain stable, with possible minor tweaks to advanced topics. Cisco announces these updates well in advance, giving you ample time to prepare.
The CCIE Written Qualification exams might see more changes, but even there, key topics don’t disappear. For example, BGP will always be part of the Routing & Switching exam.
Avoid falling into the “version change” trap. Don’t rush into an exam before you’re ready, only because of an upcoming update.
Study when you are prepared. The time you invest in learning is always valuable, so start now and continue your journey with confidence.
