I don't know. My first time I went to RTP. For my second and third tries I
went to Halifax. I really liked going there - it seems much more relaxed to
me.
Anyway, on my third try I got all of day 1 correct (I even re-drew my
diagram and checked each router against the lab I was supposed to do and I
still left about 3 hours early) and missed 2 points for the first half of
day 2. I think the proctor had a good feeling I was going to pass (I
certainly did) and he checked on what I had found. By the time he came to
check my lab, I had found plenty of problems. He returned with that magical
number 5827.
I would really recommend going to Halifax. It's easy to get to the lab, the
people are nice, and it's a nice place to visit.
