I second this.. I have been working with asterisk for over a year now and when I took it at astricon 2005 it was very challenging. Put it this way Mark Spencer failed the test. Its not something you want to walk into blind. The hands on portion is cake. However the the written exam is very challenging. Like BJ Said. You need to be well rounded in asterisk.
