When did you take the exam? I took routing on Nov 3 and I am curious when the change was made. I paid for CIT and Switching on 10/31/01 in order to pay the lower price. Someone mentioned it in the list..thank you very much for that tip!

Dont be discouraged by all the people telling you they got a 990 on every exam. That was then, and this is now. I new price of 125 (Nov 11th) for test indicates that things have changed very much. I say this because Cisco states the 125 is for the cost of changing the exams. I have just heard from friends that took it and that alot of their friends are failing. I have failed CCNP Routing as well just recently. The number of CCNPs has increased this year, by 100% since the following year, I think that trend is coming to a screaching halt. How to study, it should be common sense, which i dont have much of :) Print out the study guideline from Cisco, and know everything they mention forwards and backwards. Obviously OSPF, BGP. If you have any study guides, dont really put much stock in them there not worth 2c anymore. I suggest exam cram for a basic idea of what its about, and cisco press to look up the things that are hard to understand. And maybe sybex if you want to read the entire book :) I think some of the questions on Boson go overboard, but that might be what you need. I guess it cant hurt to know too much. Boson is now only good for learning what type of questions are on the exam, not THE actual questions on the exam anymore.
