This was my third time around, twice with v2 now once with V3. Yes it was very challenging but completely doable. The big thing was the items that none of the prep material out there covers in-depth, including Cisco own SRND (it makes a good start). Sort of got blindsided by those items.
Some hints: Do not waste too much time or money with the prep material from anyone at this point, they still have not got it together. Read the SRND word for word several times!!! If a rack provider cannot get the CUE loaded with CUCM version of the software do not buy from them!!!!!!!!!!!! Find the advanced dial plan presentation from Networkers 2009 and study like it was your bible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Keep in mind 60% of the material from IPexpert, CCbootcamb, and Internetwork Expert will help, but is not complete enough especially in the advanced dial plan area and CUE with CUCM. I came close but could have used more study material on the dial plan, did not see the Networkers presentation until the day after I came back from my test.
