What score did you get on the first try???

Well, in just about 12 hours I take the CCIE written exam for the second
time. The first time was just to get a handle on what I should expect
(though I still held hope that I would pass).
This time, however, I have made a strong effort to study. In the last
four weeks I have read more material, page for page, than I did all
through college. I still can't say that I know it all because sometimes
I still draw a blank when someone asks me a question. But I can say that
when I took that first Certification Zone practice exam I thought I was
nuts for thinking I could do this, and when I took the most recent one I
actually made a passing score.
And now, on the eve of my exam, I think to myself if I am still crazy
for continuing this path. I mean, thinking about all that I must study
in addition to what I have already done makes me dizzy. But just for
giggles I thought I would see how fast I could correctly configure a
router, from scratch, with two Ethernet connections, two WAN
connections, a routing protocol and NAT. Now I know this is a simple
configuration but I was going for speed not complexity. I finished
configuring the router in just under 9 minutes, and yes, it worked! I
was shocked. I didn't think I was that practiced.
So now I study a bit more, just to cover the basic items that I may have
forgotten in my studies. I also plan on getting a good night's sleep
(though I may be too nervous). And tomorrow morning I plan on passing
the exam and greeting my future with open arms and a confident smirk on
my face. :-)
Best wishes to all!
Jim
