   Is there any labs out there that simulates the CCIE lab questions and
   how they are worded?

     This is very true. But I think it really depends on how you
     approach the
     proctor. If you think something can be done two different ways,
     and you
     know the effects of both, tell that to the proctor. Let him know
     that you
     know how to configure both, and how it will impact your network.
     Run both scenarios through him with as much detail as possible.
     I used to think the CCIE lab questions were very tricky, but I
     started
     realizing that I didn't know certain technologies as well as I
     needed. If
     you really know the technologies, the questions seem a lot
     simpler. I can
     not stress enough - READ THE QUESTIONS!

     I have to disagree with this. On my last attempt (but not my final
     attempt), I
     configured a router with a command that was not 'prohibited'. I
     was told
     during
     my review that if I had asked about doing it the way I did it, I
     would have
     been
     told to find a different solution.
     The safest answer is, when in doubt ASK the proctor.
