Nadeem,
Hi, while Dale may have been a little hard on you, CCIE certification
isn't a quick and easy endeavor like CNE or MCSE (I know, I have both of
them). You're expected to know all items in the blue print, maybe not
extensively but you should be familiar with them. So in that regard I
have to agree with Dale somewhat that if it's too much information for you
to cover then the CCIE certification might not be what you're looking
for. The CCIE isn't a watered-down exam like all the others in the
industry, it's very difficult by design and basically requires you to put
the rest of your life on hold while you pursue it. Passing the CCIE
written is far easier than passing the lab.
