Let me start out saying that I have not taken the Foundation exam - I took the routing, switching and remote access one by one.
The Foundation exam is the three exams (routing, switching and remote access) in one. It has more questions and cost more than one of the other three. It's kind of a gamble. If you are not prepared for all three exams when you take the Foundation, you will get nothing out of it. On the other hand, if you are perfect in routing and switching, but not so good in remote access, Foundation might be better, as the percentage you answer wrong on remote access questions, will be a third the percentage compared to if you took it by it self. Anyway(s), to prepare for the Foundation, you need to read the same books, etc., as you would if you prepared for each of the other three. To see what I did, visit my RouterChief site.
