Hello All

I am not interested in exam content. I just want to know how long the exam is and how many questions?
Also, is it standard or adaptive (can you review questions, or do you have to answer the current question in order to progress to the next one)?

I'm not sure of the length of the exam, but it is adaptive. If you get one wrong on a certain topic it will ask more questions in that area. Also, you must answer the question to move on. You are not able to go back to any question.

OK, so the Cisco site tells me that the above exam is:

Duration: 75 minutes (55-65 questions)

I get into the exam on Friday, and the exam turned out to be fixed at 72 questions and 90 minutes long!

I was also told by a Cisco instructor that there was no ISDN and no Appletalk in the exam. What do I get?
3 questions on ISDN!!

I passed anyway, so I'm not too bitter!

The instructor told you wrong, you shouldn't get any questions on appletalk or novell, but they did beef up
the ISDN portion of the exam, along with vlsm/cidr,
subnetting, etc.
