I have just completed 2 intense days at Broadwing's CCIE Practice Lab
in
Reston, VA. I must say that Edwin Whang's Lab Service Team provides
a
CHALLENGING practice exam with in-depth scenarios. Scott Keoseyan,
Principal Engineer Lab Services, provided a professional Candidate
Evaluation (which is yours to keep), as well as answering any
questions
that I had about the exam, making sure I had a firm understanding of
the
concepts being tested.
They run the practice lab with 3 options (refer to the link above for
details and prices). I chose the 2 day practice lab where they
emulate
all of the conditions of the actual CCIE Lab. Scott basically performs
the role of the proctor and is experienced enough to actually be a
Cisco
Proctor. Colby Duong, who is a CCIE, is one of the architects of the
exam scenarios. He has written, I believe, 3 practice exams with
enough
"issues to spot" to keep Mr. Caslow himself busy for hours.
The equipment is top-notch. They have 2500, 2600, 3600, 4500, 7200,
7500, LS1010, and Cat 5500. The have just received VIC network
modules
with FXS cards to stump you with VoIP, along with the existing LANE
modules for ATM, and the BRI for DDR. All equipment is terminated at
a
patch panel to facilitate connections which will help familiarize you
with the equipment set-up just like the Cisco CCIE Lab.
I have been to (arguably) the best training facilities, and had some
of
the best instructors: Marty Adkins, Tim Brown, Fred Ingham, James
Parks, and Lawrence Edwards. They have given me a firm foundation,
the
knowledge, and experience to move forward in my quest for the CCIE.
Now, I feel, that I have been to the best prep lab facility money can
buy! Broadwing has given me the additional skills, fine-tuning, and
confidence that I needed to attempt passing this formidable exam.
Having already been to other practice labs and been disappointed,
Broadwing was everything that a practice lab should be and more.
Thank you to the Broadwing Lab services team.
