Re: Passed CCIE Written
Congrats on the written! I bombed two weeks ago by one point, stupid mistakes, and will be heading back for a retake next week. Cisco used to have a program for the SEs of resellers named "Advanced SE Training." They brought you under their wing, mentored, and provided access to the actual lab where the testing will take place - for three days of practice and critique. I don't know if the program is still available (by the way, it is free), but you should be able to find the particulars by doing a search of "AET" on CCO.

Re: Passed CCIE Written
Hi, WELL DONE. I am from an English speaking country but not American English. I have in every Cisco paper ever done had trouble interpreting the poorly written questions. I in fact practice by attempting to answer double negatives, multple choice questions with no correct answers (best of bad choice I think it's called) and the like. On all papers but the BSCN (it was about the best to read) I have made the comments that it may be a little more prudent to have someone check the questions and at least make them a little more Universal and or grammatically correct. I sympathise(use Z where required) with anyone from a non English speaking country when those of us in "English" speaking countries aslo have problems.

Re: Passed CCIE Written
While I agree with you that the questions could often be worded better (and I'd hate to be a non-english speaker trying to interpret some of them), I'll play devil's advocate and point out that many technical or user requirements I get are also poorly written, with double negatives, conflicting requirements, and no correct answers. Perhaps Cisco's exams are deliberately modelled on real-world situations??? (OK, maybe not... that's assuming *way* too much thought on the part of the exam writers) Merry Christmas to all those who celebrate Christmas, happy holidays to those who don't, and apologies to those in cultures who are sick of hearing about somebody else's celebrations..

Re: Passed CCIE Written
Hi, I often here this argument about how users put things. One of the lessons that I try to put very heavily of the young blokes (guys) that work with me is that extracting accurate and helpful details from clients is the guts of good network trouble shooting.

Re: Passed CCIE Written!
Rob, Congratulations on both your exam and your new born son. Perhaps a better future for him will be your driving force, we all tip our hats to you. Good luck. I'll be taking my CCIE written on December 1st. Best Regards, Scott M. Trieste CCNP/Security, CCDP, MCSE -Win2k ""Rob Fielding"" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message 000a01c04c20$b0e620b0$ca85ea18@minime">news:000a01c04c20$b0e620b0$ca85ea18@minime... This was no easy test. I got 78%. It wasn't very ambiguous, but I really had to pick apart details to choose an answer. To make matters worse, the test exploded half-way through. Fortunately, when they got it restarted, it picked up where I left off. I finished with plenty of time to spare. An occasional joke planted in the test helped to clear my head a few times. I didn't notice a focus on any one subject. There was an even mix of everything (and I mean everything!). This test was more detailed than ACRC. I didn't do a very good job studying for this test. I dragged it out too long. I was going to take it before my son was born, but he arrived a month early so its been hard to find study time recently. I could have taken it a couple of months ago after I finished my CCNP cert, but I was just too lazy. The resources I used were: CertificationZone - very good, probably the single best resource, but I don't like the fact that you can only take the tests once each. CCIE Exam Cram - surprisingly detailed. Good sample test, but not enough by itself. Que CCIE prep kit - Average. Boson - loaded with errors. Very frustrating. I never even tried all four tests. I just gave up after two. I have Internet Routing Architectures and Routing TCP/IP, but I haven't read them yet. I just used them for reference occasionally. CCNP and field experience - This would have been too hard without experience and focused studying. Well, now I'm off to find a lab date and give away $1000 to Cisco. Wish me luck. -Rob Fielding

RE: Passed CCIE written
I guess the easy answer to your question is "yes" - if someone wants to pay more for a CCIE lab candidate than for a CCNP who is not a candidate for the lab, then it is worth more to them. Now, my personal opinion would be that you could not use the attainment of either CCIE written or CCNP as a valid sole measure of marketability. I can find folks who have passed the written that know more about networking and Cisco than some CCNP's, and can find folks who have achieved CCNP that know more than some who have passed the written and are candidates for the two days of hell. The bottom line is this - does the person know their stuff, are they willing to continually learn new stuff, and how well can they perform when under fire. Good luck!

Re: Passed CCIE Written! [7:12377]
John, I totally agree with you about more in-depth questions being asked on the CCNP exams. I also recently completed both (CCNP, CCIE written) and was surprised and disappointed at the lack of depth in the questions I was asked on the Written exam. I think if you read the intro/overview technology stuff on the cisco website you are well on your way to passing the written. John Neiberger wrote: > I was *so* worried about taking this test.

Re: Passed CCIE Written! [7:12377]
Hi, First, way to go, sounds like you worked hard! You Deserve it. How much time did any of you take to study for the CCIE written after passing the CCNP exams? Do you have any other advice for those of us going taking "baby steps" from CCNP studies to the CCIE written? (My co-workers say I should just take the written but the instant gratification of passing the CCNP exams keeps me motivated!) I plan to finish my CCNP/DP before September and then take 2.5 months of studying for the written I'll take in Mid-December. I hope it's good enough to score at least over 80%, but wow, 90% is something to be really proud about.

Re: Passed CCIE Written! [7:12377]
I used a *bunch* of books to study for this, as well as a lot of material from CCO. Here are some of the books I used, in no particular order: Routing TCP/IP by Jeff Doyle Internet Routing Architectures by Sam Halabi Bridges, Routers, and Switches by Caslow Cisco LAN Switch Configuration by Sybex Building Cisco Multilayer Switching Networks from Mcgraw Hill Building Cisco Remote Access Networks from Mcgraw Hill CCIE Written Study Guide from Sybex CiscoPress Building Scalable Cisco Networks CiscoPress Wide Area Network Solutions CiscoPress Cisco Internetwork Troubleshooting Cisco Security Architectures CCIE Routing and Switching Exam Cram, which i thought was worthless but in hindsight it probably covered most of the test. Add to that list a *lot* of material from CCO, reading through Groupstudy archives, and a subscription to CertificationZone, which was instrumental in my passing the test. Is that enough? ;-) Good luck!

Re: Passed CCIE Written! [7:12377]
Thanks for the congrats, I appreciate it. If I remember correctly, I finished up CCNP in March and CCDP in April. In hindsight, one month of studying would have been plenty to prepare for the written. It covers (potentially) more material than the CCNP/DP tests, but I don't think the questions were more difficult. To use an analogy, I feel that the CCNP/DP tests were a mile wide and an inch deep. The CCIE written is 1.5 miles wide and 2 inches deep, but I prepared as if it were going to be 2 miles wide and 100 yards deep. However, all of that preparation was not for naught. It will come in *very* handy in the lab, I'm sure. As far as taking the written before the CCNP/DP tests, I think you gain a lot of knowledge while studying for those exams and it's worth the time to finish those up first. I personally feel that it adds to the sense of accomplishment to tackle these in order, and the process itself may be worth more than the certs in the long run. If you focus on learning and don't focus on just the certifications, you'll fly through these with no problem. Good luck! John | Hi, | | First, way to go, sounds like you worked hard!

Re: Passed CCIE Written! [7:12377]
John, As you start preparing for the Lab exam , do let let me know a few things 1) What date did you get for the lab ? In other words ,what is the current waiting list ? 2) What books/sites will you be using ? 3) What kind of study schedule are you going to have? Some of my worst fears have been confirmed with latest changes to the CCIE program.I personally think that there is going to be a flood of CCIE's in the market in the next 1 year or so. And tell you what , the internetworking job market is not really going all that strong .So demand exceeds supply might soon become supply exceeds demand but maybe I am being overly pessimistic about this as usual.:-).

Re: Passed CCIE Written [7:28772]
For a long time now I had ignored the Cisco scoring pattern, the bottom line is that you passed. When I was writing my CCNP/CCDP series, I discover that in 2 of the papers I got on each 2 100%, a few 30-something % and an embarasing 0% but the final score read 80-something %, close to 90%. From that time I start ignoring their scoring system, Cisco need to re-write their scoring algorithm. Congrats, on to the big moster. Regards.

RE: Passed CCIE Written [7:28772]
Well, think about it this way. You have a test with 26 questions. You get a === Section 1: 100% Section 2: 33% Section 3: 33% Final Score: 85% === It doesn't make much since until you consider what they don't tell you.

Re: passed ccie written [7:62484]
Hi, I think my PC has problem, my emails don't seem to be shown, but they are actully there. If I have sent a few of them, please forgive me. :) I was asked a few questions, here are the answers: 1. token ring and ipx are the topics you need to know as they are listed in the blueprint 2. there are exhibition questions, quite a few, you can prepare yourself via boson exam 3. reading CCO website to expand the topics on the books. Normally they are more uptodate. But it is up to your time allocation scheme as online materials are vast. If you don't have time, you can choose the topics you are not that good at or you find the books can't answer your questions.

Re: passed ccie written [7:62395]
Congrats Paul! I am preparing for the written also, but I confuse if it better for me to take CCIP first (because of MPLS topic) ? Does the written cover very in-depth in MPLS like the CCIP (MPLS) does ? or even more than that ? Coz, I'm still blur in MPLS.

RE: Passed CCIE written [7:44441]
I did the new CCDP (CID 3.0) exam a week ago. As I was going through it, I was disappointed with the level of knowledge required to pass. I thought to myself that most of the material covered focused on CCNA/CCDA concepts - which again, is quite disappointing because by the time you do that exam for the CCDP certification, you should already have the core CCxP exams and the CCDA behind you. And some of the questions were complete "gimme's". Mind you, I did like the X.25 questions... -- Leigh Anne > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of > Steven A.

Re: Passed CCIE Written [7:20796]
Dennis, I have to agree with that. A good example is my own experience: I work for a large telco and see many variations of network platforms every day. I recently went to the Networkers and was blown away by all the miniscule concepts that I just DON'T SEE and DON'T HAVE A CLUE ABOUT! A very humbling experience, I must admit. As a matter of fact, one of the proctors gave this piece of advice: Even the config aspects that one would consider easy (access lists, IPX, interface setups, etc.) will really grab you when you are dealing with all the volume and time constraints of the lab itself. Personally, I try to drill on these at least 15-30 minutes a day just to stay fresh. My .02c, Rob H. NP, DP, blah,blah,blah...

RE: passed CCIE written (longish) [7:28614]
Congratulation!!! I passed this exam as well, at the first attempt with a 75% 2 days ago. I used: 1) Lou Rossi's Token Ring Paper 2) Network Learning CCIE Written Prep Guide 3) CCIE Prep Kit from QUE I agreed with Nick this is not an easy exam. I would also suggest everyone who has done with CCNP, should take this exam within a short period of time. Thanks everyone on this group. On to the Lab exam!!!

It was not an easy test, considering the topics covered. However, I must admit that nothing on the test was beyond the blue print (from CCO). I must admit that being a CCNP is definitely an advantage when one goes for this test, the coverage is different, since more concentration is on theoritical topics, desktop protocols & of course token ring & SRB/DLSW/RSRB/etc. bridging, rather than the actual routing protocols. I would attempt to suggest a path that one may take (books etc.) while preparing for this test. This will apply mostly to CCNP/DP's & one with experience (NP/DP level). Read : 1. Internetworking TEch. overview (CCO) this is an absolute must, however not many who have passed the test seem to refer to this. It certainly has no commands kinda info, but packet types, frame types, layers etc. are plentiful, and these are tested. 2. Caslow : I have mixed responses about caslow, no doubt it is a very good book, no doubt I couldnt have studied some of the topics without it, no doubt that it has a wealth of concentrated info, however one can "bypass it". It is replaceable. 3. Read chapter on ATM & LANE from LAN switching book by Kennedy Clark (Cisco Press). Its the best explanation one can get. 4. If a CCNP, read all the 4 books, read DLSW + RSRB + SRB papers from CCO. 5. Know the boot sequence & the boot register in & out. 6. Lou Rossi's Token Ring Paper 7. Dennis Laganiere's RIF examples (good examples) 8. CCO Blue print(probably the most imp. ), I used to go back and forth forming my own Q's about a particular topic. One can replace Caslow (for written, its an absolute must for LAB) by referring to all the above mentioned material. I would recommend taking Written almost immediately after CCNP, while the material is still fresh. And lastly, the most important is BOSON tests, especially 2 & 3, test 3 has now about 400Q's and that really tests most of the stuff. Experience with actual hardware is important, however I would think that Cisco doesnt rely on actual experience with hardware for this test atleast (NP/DP tests albeit do rely on experience) I would like to thank everyone on this group. now enroute to LAB, and also being part of the exclusive LAB study group (on groupstudy, where else :) Nick Shah Network Engr.

Really want to say thanks for all the helps I gained from this study group. Test is 3 hours, 150 questions, single or multiple choices. If mulitple, will give indication how many answers. Can go backward and forward to check the questions. Passing score 58. Highly recommend 1. Boson #1 and #3. You should make sure you either remember or understand every answer. Don't even give up hard ones. Only give up something you really think it is going to be nonesense if you have to waste your brain resource memorizing the answers. 2. Need to understand these topics in depth: VoIP, MPLS(mpls-vpn, mpls-te), QoS. Those are my failing points where i only read superficially, but not in depth. 3. Try to read the online CCO website as much as you can, here is my another failing point. 4. The rest are the usual stuffs that every one talks a lot: books to read: Doyle's routing, lan switching, cisco press QoS, cisco press mpls, Caslow. Now it is time to crack the most difficult part: Lab.

RE: passed CCIE written with a little extra stress
Actually this appears to have been happening to a lot of people according to the testing center I was at, it happened to me as well about 3 weeks ago (I was on the 42nd question). However I was lucky, while I called Prometric and had them download another test, I didn't end out having to write it, as we just kept hitting ignore on the error and the test recovered so I was able to complete it. I passed and have my lab scheduled for July in Halifax, so I guess the heart attack :) was worth it. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Joe Johonness Sent: Thursday, February 08, 2001 8:08 PM To: Group Study Subject: passed CCIE written with a little extra stress I passed the CCIE written today.

Re: passed CCIE written with a little extra stress
It happened to me as well, back at Networkers. However they just ALT-CTRL-DEL'ed the machine and it came back with my half test to complete. I'd already passed away on the of the keyboard, and so couldn't finish it :-) just kidding, I did pass, and boy I'm happy!

Re: passed CCIE written with a little extra stress
Same thing happened to me in Melbourne. The test crashed on question 32 or something like that and so I panicked and went out to the front desk and they came in, rebooted it and my test came up on q 32. So like a fool i hit the previous button to make sure my answer was there and sure enough it was so happier I hit next and ... crash # 2! Slightly put off I went back out to the front desk and they rebooted it again but this time they warned me not to use the previous button but use the marked questions at the end of the exam to review. Needless to say the couple of other people in the test room smirked a bit, but then again they were only doing Microsoft exams so what do I care what they think :-P Still I passed at the end of it but boy was that something I didn't need during the written!
