Hi Paul - thanks for sharing your experience. Any chance you can explain what you will do differently in regards to time management on your next attempt?

It is a very high level summary. Topic 1 Score in % Topic 2 Score in % The summary does not include information on how many points each topic was worth so I recommend making note it during the exam. This way if you fail, you can estimate how many points you got total.

I was not successful, but do feel the exam was passable. I am shooting for end of Jan or early Feb as my next test date. Many items I breezed through and plan to only review them briefly during the next two months. There were some area that I missed points, but was not sure why so these topics I will be started on square one with a full re-read and re-practice. Good luck getting study time during the holidays. I am already finding it hard to pull away from work/family. Regards, Roger On Wed, Nov 25, 2009 at 9:30 PM, Paul Stewart <[email protected]> wrote: On 11/17, I tried unsuccessfully to join the club. I did feel like I was well prepared technically but failed on time management and just lost my way as the day progressed. The test, in my opinion, was fair and I should have finished with adequate time. Technically, it certainly wasn't easy, but definitely passable. I feel like I had the technical skills to pass it if I had a better test taking strategy. I also believe that I failed to pay attention to detail during my first read of the exam. The result is time spent on tasks when I didn't know where to locate one of the minor bullets. This costs both points and time. Having took the test and experienced the process, I am confident that I can succeed in this. Upon failing, I planned to reattempt as soon as possible. Unfortunately, the one month rule put me into the holiday season with no dates available at RTP until early January. I have some other personal items that have came up since then so it actually will probably be beyond that a bit. I do think my study will be adjusted to focus on the DocCD for a period of time. I want to be very familiar, so I can recall details as required. _______________________________________________ For more information regarding industry leading CCIE Lab training, please visit www.ipexpert.com <http://www.ipexpert.com/> "This e-mail is intended for the recipient only.
