Hi all I failed the new CCIE written exam too. I was close, 68%, but that’s just not enough. Here are some points about the exam that you should know :
* The test "thoroughly" tests your theory. You really need to know it. To be more precise, someone at work should be able to come to you, and ask questions about the protocol(eg why, how etc) and you should be able to answer it. *there are no short cuts, no one book wonders. I learnt this the hard way. Use CCO, Doyle, caslow etc to thoroughly delve deep into the protocols and how they operate. Remember CCO is your friend, everything tested in the exam is really all there. Books by Doyle, Calsow etc make it easier to understand. *Please remember, its NOT like CCNP. Its vastly different, much more difficult. I have done CCNA and CCNP foundation etc...this is a different beast. Its good in a way, I have learnt much more about the protocols now. I think Cisco have done some good in making it tougher. *Boson does help. They help you recall the subject matter and ensure new information has actually been understood. Remember you cant just do boson and then expect to pass(eg CCNA...). Its a complementary tool. Boson #1 and #3 are the ones to go for. Good luck to everyone, please remember, its not impossible... raj Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=53049&t=52862 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
