I found that in the CCNP track, dumps were not necessary to pass. It was kind of like a college course with concepts and lots of basic theory application. You just had to commit to studying the material either way or you risk failing due to % of possible questions. The materials are easily learnable and not so in depth, just the beginning brushings of the deep concepts. In my everyday duties, I find that the things I "REALLY" run into are what counts. Like multi vendor equipment working together...etc, real challenges, not "What is the North American ISDN standard?" type BS and even the CCIE is a 1 product certification. In essence, its the real world experience that is making the $$$. Anyone who braindumps though will have a case of "dirt-and-pebble" mouth from falling on their face anyway. I do have an appreciation for people who really learn the material, because I have seen them be effective in situations due to the fact that they were up to date on the current technologies and "fresh" from their training and studying. These folks did not have the most experience, but they were good troubleshooters and well trained.
