I agree, but I think that the consistency is the
thing. The written is 'newer' and yet it is poorly
aligned with anything real. Erlang-B for R/S? RIF
fields? Where's multicast, EIGRP-BGP redistributions,
VOIP, WCCP, etc.? It's not just new stuff either -
some questions were bad on day one.
I am hopeful that someday Cisco will ask us to help
them develop a 'real' exam that is challenging not
because of its grammar, incorrect answers, hidden
information and adgenda, but rather is hard because of
its depth on relevant topics.
