I’ve seen a lot of different study timelines for the 350-401 ENCOR exam, and I’m curious to hear how long it took others to feel fully prepared. Since this exam covers such a broad range of networking concepts, routing, switching, automation, wireless, security, and more, the preparation time seems to vary a lot depending on experience level.
For those who’ve already passed, how long did your study journey last?
Did you follow a structured schedule, or did you study on and off until the topics made sense?
I’ve noticed many candidates rely on official courses, lab practice, video training, and plenty of
Cisco certification exam questions to reinforce concepts. Some people say three months of consistent study is enough, while others prefer to take six months, especially if they’re balancing a job or trying to strengthen fundamentals along the way.
It would be really helpful if everyone could share:
Your study duration
How many hours per week do you average
Which resources or methods helped the most
Whether you came from a networking background or were learning new areas from scratch
Your insights could make a big difference for anyone planning their 350-401 exam timeline. Looking forward to hearing your experiences!
