1) Speed. Speed speed speed. Do some labs again and aim for 20% faster. Don't listen to those that say the IPX labs "must" take more than 8 hours. You should be finishing V3 labs with time to spare. I was completing V3 TS labs early and config sections on time and I ran WAY short on the real thing.
2) Find ways to lab topics that aren't heavily covered on IPX labs. EEM, PFR, SNMP, etc. IPX labs are indicative of the types of things you may encounter on the lab but they are not an exhaustive inventory. Just doing all the IPX labs does not mean you're ready for the real thing from a content standpoint. You need to be able to deal with every topic on the blueprint with the level of confidence and speed that V3 helps you build on the specific topics it does cover. 3) Don't forget theory/reading. Read over config guides and command refs. I got caught by a specific wording for a feature that I'd never heard before and it cost me a big question that I was otherwise very confident I had right. That specific keyword for the feature was in the config guide and white papers I looked up after. Good Luck! Bob -- Sent from my iPhone, please excuse any typos.
