Hello everyone, I am currently in my senior year of college and taking a networking class and learning alot especially with packet tracer. What is the difference in difficulty when it comes to taking the CCENT and the CCNA and would I probably just need to buy a book to past the test? Also to enhance my learning, where can I get a pdf version of just the basic switch command table because I dont want to get into any bad habits at all, thanks!!!!!!!!

I haven't taken both so I can't tell you, but I think the general theme is the CCNA one-test route is more topics, but less in-depth. The CCENT two-test route was pretty in-depth on all topics.

I went the single-test route twice and really don't think it's that hard (even when I was a noob back in the day). Most Cisco written exams can be passed using the appropriate Cisco Press book, some gear/sims, and a bunch of studying/hands-on work. I don't think I've ever seen a chart of IOS commands. Just learn to use the IOS command lookup tool and/or the documentation on the Cisco website. A listing of a bunch of commands won't be too useful unless you know how to interpret the output anyway.
