What you do when you're studying for the CCNA?

I didn't make the cutoff for the old CCNA exams. That's why I'm now a Cisco Certified Entry Networking Technician. I figured I'd give the CompTIA Network+ a shot while all the theory was fresh in my mind. It didn't really matter. I think I could have randomly selected answers, the passing threshold was so low. The content of the test wasn't much better. I had one question where the answer choices didn't actually include the right answer. I can't elaborate because of the NDA though.

5 Routers, 3 switches, 1 access server and just enough knowledge to be dangerous! This is what I spend my spare time on. Yesterday it was trunking with 2 switches and a router.
