Re: CCIP MCast and Qos Exam......How tough?? [7:58161]

2002-11-27 Thread YASSER ALY
As tough as u can imagine. I hardly passed it though the passing grade
wasn't that high.

The problem with this exam is that none of the sources available makes u
quite confident that u really understand all the topics - Specially the
QoS part - I believe things would be much more different if you have the
chance for lots of hands-on experience with it.

 It's kinda general as u said but passing the exam is one thing and
really feel confident that u really know the stuff is another thing.

Though passing score for MPLS was very high (867) but through the exam I
felt MPLS was much easier than the Qos/MCAST one. Again maybe because I
have the chance to really practice MPLS.

All what I can say is that u need to study hard for this one and that QoS
is one of the topics that really needs a book or two that are well
written and covers it from top to bottom without assuming any previous
knowledge about the topic before.

I've taken it.  I believed I passed it first try although I recall it was
difficult because of it's huge scope.  It's not nearly as hard as the 
Optical test, it's pretty much on par with the MPLS test.  I would say that
it gets fairly detailed in both QoS and Multicast.  I would know more than
just an overview.   I definitely recall it being very theory oriented.  If
you follow the outline I'm sure you'll be fine.

Good Luck!
