Just a couple of points shy of making it to day 2 in Halifax. Seems that in th
e process of trying to do something fancy to make a 2 point problem work I dest
royed my OSPF, and this didn't become apparent until about 4:50pm. Don't let t
his happen to you...I actually finished the Day 1 binder by 3:30pm. Got deduct
ed for not so stupid details like missing passwords. Lost about 5-8 points on
stuff I legitimately didn't know enough about. Much better than my first try,
and although both proctors I had were very helpful, the environment in Halifax
is less formal than San Jose which is more agreeable to me. The only thing I c
an see doing now is learning the intricate details of the stuff I didn't know a
nd taking it again. Something that helped me do better this time after the fir
st test was realizing that the answers to most of the problems are very simple
- maybe complicated in theory, but simple in application. If you find yourself
doing something that takes a lot of configuration, your problably on the wrong
track..
