Hi all, I actually sat for the beta of this exam and failed by one percent!!!! The exam was a monster BUT it was very good and very well written. I have read this CCIE Study guide during Networkers and it is kinda overview of all key topics, period! No one book should and can cover this exam fully for a time being. The only solution is to STUDY STUDY and STUDY. That what i summarized when i sat for this exam. The only shortcut is if somebody break the NDA and submit all questions to u and u go there and pass it. The questions are from large variety of techs and NEW techologies plus in great depth. Like u should know IP QoS and Multicasting around the same level as u were preparing for CCIP. Also I passed the old wriiten yesterday with 78% but I studied for only one night (Dennis book) plus i am no cisco guru @ all. This simply tells u the difference between the two exams. I went through the Cisco press book but its OK as a review. The best place is CCO for the new beast. TRUST ME!! Consult all the links thoroughly which r given in the blue print and u MIGHT survive.
