All,
Just got back from the lab at RTP. Won't know the results until
tomorrow. But unless they are pretty generous with the partial credit, I
don't think I made it. The amount of material was ridiculous. 20 pages in
all. Looking back, I think my day 1 book from April was about 14 pages.
With the lack of cabling, addressing, and drawing, you'd think it'd be about
the same difficulty. But I had a bunch of sections with just 1 caveat that
made the whole section twice as hard. Really obscure stuff on about 3 or 4
sections. Stuff I've never seen mentioned on this list. If I had to guess,
I think a reasonable amount to time for this would have been about 10 hours.
I've got to hand it to you guys/gals who've passed the 1 day. With all I've
learned since my last attempt in April, I thought this would be easy. I'm
kind of at a loss on how to prepare again in the future. I guess speed is
what I'm lacking. (Funny, I ran cross country in high school :) Maybe I'll
try the ECP1 class (or it's successor) and see if Val or Bruce can figure
out my problem. This is really depressing...
Sorry if I bored you with my misery,
Chuck
P.S. Sorry if I scared anyone taking the lab soon. Maybe I just
accidentally got both days of a two day lab, and they forgot to take several
pages out...
