I took the CCIE written yesterday afternoon and passed (80%) I was expecting more, but I flunked the performance/QoS section of the exam, which I neglected somewhat during preparation.
I used both Boson #1 and Boson #3. Those 2 tests are complementary and are NOT substitute for each other. Boson #3 focuses on SNA issues where as Boson #1 focuses on the other networking topics. If you can, you should purchase both tests. For preparation I did a pre-test on Boson #3 and discovered how little SNA and ATM I knew. For 3 weeks, I studied SNA and ATM using CCO + hands-on until the whole thing felt natural. Then, on the 4th week of preparation I repeated the same strategy with Boson #1. I dicovered 3 areas of networking where I had some weaknesses. I only had time to work on 2 of them thoroughly before the test. Thank you to Bernard and Dennis for excellent test materials and to all those who gracefully took the time to answer my questions. I particularly want to thank Priscilla and Leigh Anne who both put me back on track several times during the last two years and Daniel Cotts for squeezing some time out of his busy schedule to spend some time discussing Cisco with me.
