I forgot, another thing I noticed is that I was told how many answers to choose. For example, on every question I was asked to "Select the best answer" or "Select the two best answers", etc. I remember the 350-001 didn't tell you how many answers to choose.
Shawn K. P.S. I also noticed that in my previous post I wrote "Cisco ISO" when I meant "Cisco IOS". Fat finger! -----Original Message----- From: Michael L.

As far as the "back" button goes, here's what I remember..... Back when, all of the Cisco exams had the back button... (someone correct me, but the CCIE was around before CCNA/NP, etc)..... At some point (around the time I started taking Cisco exams) they removed the use of the back button from the Cisco Career Certs (CCNA/DA, CCNP/DP exams) because they realized that some of the questions would give away answers that could have been asked in previous questions.... but they left the back button in the 350-001. AFAIK, they never removed use of the back button for the CCIE written.... but I am surprised that they didn't remove it in the new incarnation..... Good info ... I'm s'posed to take the beta tomorrow..... I know MPLS is going to be probably my biggest weak point as I haven't read hardly anything about it.... but the rest I may have a good chance at doing alright at...... Wish me luck!
