Well, not quite. First, CertificationZone products (as distinct from 
IP Expert, which is a partner), have a somewhat different model than 
other study product vendors.

Essentially, a subscription gives you three kinds of service, all 
related.  First, the monthly topic has a fairly extensive tutorial 
(25-35 pages, sometimes longer) on a particular technology.  There 
will be at least one of these a month at the CCIE (R&S) level, plus 
an increasing number at CCNP and specialist level. Coupled with the 
tutorial will be a set of sample questions and one or more scenarios. 
We also put up various short papers on narrowly defined subjects 
which may or may not contain a scenario.

The key point is that we believe having a focused tutorial better 
prepares the candidate for success on the lab.  In the same manner, 
our questions are not questions alone, but contain substantial 
explanations of the correct answers and of answers that might seem 
misleadingly correct.  Many people have suggested that these 
questions sometimes are harder than the actual exam, and I'm not 
complaining if this is so -- we intend to build a base of 
understanding that will put you in good shape for the exam -- 
thinking of the army motto, "sweat in training saves blood in combat."

We should be adding, in the next month or two, some additional 
scenario related things, but we are not trying to compete 
head-to-head on nothing but the number of scenarios.

Incidentally, if you find something "pathetic", tell us about it so 
we either can fix it or clarify it.
