I have only heard good things about the class. I have heard wonderful things about Val,
and have met Bruce Caslow personally so I am looking forward to the class in June in
Falls Church, VA with Bruce. I am giving myself some time after the class to crack down
on the things I learn in class that I am really behind on. Although the prereqs say you
have to have all those classes, and have to have passed the written, it is very common
for people to get in that really don't have a clue about the basics and have not taken
those classes or passed the written, so you may be stuck with a lab partner that has
never configured a router or does not understand IP basics, which may put you way
behind
if you are there to get serious with stuff you already fairly understand. This is not a
spoon fed class, you better know what your doing when you get into the real stuff or
you
are going to look pretty silly if you don't understand simple things. I know several
CCIE's that recommend the class so if your serious, this class is the way to go.
