I would like to see scenarios that exercise problem analysis. The way I see
it, you should learn the concept before you start thinking about the
specifics. Problem analysis exercises would help people build a strong basic
understanding of what needs to be done in certain situations. With this
understanding, it would easier to cope with the CCIE lab.
