Well, think about it this way. You have a test with 26 questions. You get a
============================================================ === Section 1: 100% Section 2: 33% Section 3: 33% Final Score: 85% ============================================================ === It doesn't make much since until you consider what they don't tell you. Section 1: 20 questions Section 2: 3 questions Section 3: 3 questions so, (1*20) + (0.33*3) + (0.33*3) = 22 22/26 = 84.6% -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, December 10, 2001 6:14 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Passed CCIE Written [7:28772] For a long time now I had ignored the Cisco scoring pattern, the bottom line is that you passed. When I was writing my CCNP/CCDP series, I discover that in 2 of the papers I got on each 2 100%, a few 30-something % and an embarasing 0% but the final score read 80-something %, close to 90%. From that time I start ignoring their scoring system, Cisco need to re-write their scoring algorithm. Congrats, on to the big moster. Regards.
