The exam mode is the worst feature of this product. You don't have the option to choose an indivual exam mode. This feature is annoying since you must accept to test for all the subjects weather you're going to take a single exam or Not. GREAT!
I don't recommend anyone to spend this much money on the product. Buy a selftest software that provides an answer and explanation, and you'll be glad you did!!!
I don't understand why such a high price software doesn't provide an explanation for the answers. Instead you have a link to search the whole pdf yourself! Not very nice considering that after reading the books you want to minize your time. An explanation would be right to the point, unless Cisco is thinking that reading the book a thousand time until you memorize it is worthed.
The exam mode is the worst I have seen. Even the worst company in the whole world has a better product than this one. Where does anyone expect to practice for the 4 CCNP exams simultaneously? certainly you want to be able to choose each individual test. That's what makes sense to a rational human thinking animal. Does Cisco think people are going to take all the CCNP exams on the same day? Again absolutely ridiculous. You can not choose individual practice exams.
My advice: don't spend a single penny for this pack. Its worth is on 20-35 dollars range. Buy anything else except this one. I demand that Cisco has a free update of the software for those who bought the product and got stuck with it. I was so mad about this product that I spent another 200 dollars to buy another testing software. Selftest Software is great and close to the real exam. Not mentioning that they provide real explanations and guarantee within 90 days of the date of your purchase. If you don't pass the exam they refund your money. That's how confident they feel about their product. That's what Cisco should have done...
The questions included with this package are very poorly written and in some cases completely wrong!
In using this software to test my knowledge in preparation for my CCNP recert I found that at least 20% of the questions had serious problems.
-questions were so poorly written that it was difficult, if not impossible, to answer them.
-the answers provided did not match the question being asked
e.g. - you were asked a question about OSPF, but the answers provided were for BGP!!
-there are some questions where the exact same answer is listed twice (and it seems that no matter which one you choose , you're incorrect)
-There are questions that are just completely wrong!!
-There are questions where the ACRONYMS are MISSPELLED!!! which can be, needless to say, confusing!!
all in all, it was worth it to get all the books on PDF.. But I was extremely disappointed in the testing content.
If you are looking for test questions - don't buy this package - look at Boson tests instead.
There is over 1600 questions covering the four exams and judging from the content of the material you have questions that go beyond the exam objectives. I was able to install the software in Windows 95, 98, NT workstation, 2000 and XP Professional with out error or failure.
The package has you starting off with reading assignments and with the CCNP Prep and Certification libraries as go to reference guides you have one of the best tools available. After the reading section you then work in the study mode and then the practice exam mode, which makes for a good training layout.
I though the question were challenging and in some cases very tough to answer, since this a training kit I did use several resources to study with and a few questions I was unable to find and answer. Once updated to the latest tests, add a pdf version of the test(s) and correct a few grammar errors and this kit would be a the top of the lists.

This is a very good product.
I'd estimate that 20% of the test questions have mistakes - either typographical mistakes, questions that just make sense, but worst of all, so many questions HAVE WRONG ANSWERS given.
When the "reference" link is clicked, you are taken to THE VERY START a .pdf file that has NO index, NO Table of contents and NO pdf tags. You are left with no indication of how to find the reference other than to use the "find" function. And even then, so many times there is no reference related to the question you are having ifficulty with... The real pity is that the books that this product is based on are good books, so if you do eventually find the correct reference in the .pdf file, you can usually get some good information. But this is not what you buy - you are buying a training kit - and it should NEVER have got passed quality control.
While the software is easy to install and I found no complications I did have to disable my anti-virus software first. The cd includes reading assignments and the complete CCNP is on the e-book included.
The software has a couple of modes starting with the study mode which allows you to take practice tests on a specific section before moving on. The thing I most like was the open book testing method this mode uses. It allows the candidate to learn and find the answers rather than just memorizing the questions and answers.
There is also a practice exam mode with one exam for the each of the four CCNP exams. Although the exams are very good and seem to cover the topics and objective very well for the money you have been given more practice exams.
The Commandments of the EE:
(5) Take care that thou useth the proper method when thou takest the
measures of high-voltage circuits too, that thou dost not incinerate
both thee and thy test meter, for verily, though thou has no company
property number and can be easily surveyed, the test meter has
one and, as a consequence, bringeth much woe unto a purchasing agent.
(6) Take care that thou tamperest not with interlocks and safety devices,
for this incurreth the wrath of the chief electrician and bring
the fury of the engineers on his head.
(7) Work thou not on energized equipment for if thou doest so, thy
friends will surely be buying beers for thy widow and consoling
her in certain ways not generally acceptable to thee.
(8) Verily, verily I say unto thee, never service equipment alone,
for electrical cooking is a slow process and thou might sizzle in
thy own fat upon a hot circuit for hours on end before thy maker
sees fit to end thy misery and drag thee into his fold.
"You know, it's at times like this when I'm trapped in a Vogon
airlock with a man from Betelgeuse and about to die of asphyxiation in
deep space that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me
when I was young!"
"Why, what did she tell you?"
"I don't know, I didn't listen."
-- Douglas Adams, "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy"
