Since I was notified of my exam cancellation for the on premise testing of CWNP’s CWAP certification and my subsequent reschedule to January of 2021. I have decided to pursue the latest Cisco Certified Network Associate (200-301) certification. I booked the exam for December 29th, 2020.

Admittedly, I have taken the Cisco Certified Network Associate (200-125) before in early 2019 and barely made it to the passing score of 810 with an actual score of 770.
I should have kept studying and attempted a retake while the information was still fresh in my head BUT after that failure I was disheartened to pursue the certification again.
Should have. Could have. Would have. All in the past now. Lessons were learned and I think I’m ready to reach for it again!
Update – February 4th, 2021
It has been a while since I last updated so here I am with a PASS! I would rate the CCNA 200-301 as 4.0 out of 5.0 stars. I do have to say that this iteration felt a lot easier than the previous one with the caveat being a lot lengthier in both question bank and duration.
