If I could just add one more thing...

You may have a section dependent on a previous section.  Lets say OSPF
to make it easy...

Question 1 (4 pts):
Configure OSPF to advertise networks ABCD in Area x

Question 2 (2 pts):
Configure md5 authentication in area x.

If you miss out (lets say) network C in Q1, you score zero points in it.
You will also score zero points for Q2 as the dependency is also not working.

We can take this further again:

Question 10 BGP (4 points).
Establish EBGP between R1 in network C and R6 in Network Z
Make sure x,y,x occurs etc

Now... as network C was not advertised in OSPF to begin with at the
start, C is unreachable and hence Q10 wont work.  Even if all config
is correct in Q10, if it doesnt work, you score zero for that
question.

So in summary:
That one typo or whatever it was for Q1 didnt just cost you 4 points
there, it also cost 6 more points in Q2 and Q10 because they rely on
Q1 to work properly.H

PS Scott, please pass on my regards to Jared when he rocks up.  We
used to work together :)
