How can the routing exam for the CCNP be 3 hours long? Do you mean the CCNPv3 Foundation Beta?

Yes 3 hours. But the number of questions is horrendous! It definitely took me by surprise. I thought as I have been studying for my CCIE lab for the past year or so (on and off) then this will be a walk in the park. Was NOT! First of all I did not know that you cannot go back to questions. Definitely I would have had a different strategy. I wasn't simply prepared for that so I ended up spending too long on some questions, which I regretted later because I had a lot of very difficult questions in the beginning and a lot of easy ones in the end that I wish I could spend like 20 seconds on each instead of 3! I had 10 minutes to answer 45 questions in the end!!! I never took CCNP v2 but rumor has it that its routing exam isn't that hard. Well, maybe I'm not that competent, but today I had real tricky questions in this Beta. Well, but again the way the questions were asked was also really bad in some instances. For the first time in an exam I just had to leave some comments for some of the questions. I don't know if I'll pass or not. I think I still did OK. The lesson I learned from taking this test without preparing for it is that CCNP and CCIE are just very different ball games, and not just 2 levels of competence. You can get get away with some uncertainties as to how things really work, but in the CCNP (or at least this new version) this is much less the case.
