In taking the lab twice, I've only seen one vague scenario...
Do what I did... Ask the proctor.
However, don't just go ask "how do you want this done?"
Go up and ask: "This question isn't worded clearly. I can do this with xxxx
command or with yyyy command, which would you like me to configure?"
The proctors are much more helpful if you ask them like you have a clue of
what you are asking.

I have to jump in and desagree here. I don4t think the questions are vague,
but specific.
The description of the CCIE Lab is that it is a practice test of Network
Theory. You must know the theory very well as well as how to configure the
equips.

many people brain dump. I wonder if they are
purposely vague to decrease the pass rate. Test my reading comprehension and
engineering ability but don't purposely convolute the exam with semantic
games...
lower pass rate = more money for Cisco ...more prestige too but sure seems
like an underhanded way to do it.

Hi Jaspreet,
Sorry to hear that - not sure if you saw my email detailing my experience.
I too wasn't happy with the grading of my sections either - most of which I
expected to get the full marks for.
If Cisco doesn't want to accept the working solutions we provide them, then
the exam should not be so vague and state what it is they are looking for.
Keep at it, that's what im doing.
Regards,
George

Folks,
I took my first attempt at the Lab exam yesterday in San
Jose and failed . I did the exam very well and attempted all of it and
produced the desired results . I am not satisfied with the grading and was
100 % sure that I would make it through. Should I go in to have the exam
re-evaluated or not ? I have spent about 10 months preparing for this and
done every possible resource of labs ( commercial and cisco internal) ,
read all the books two to three times. Read all the samples and tips from
CCO. Even in the exam , I did all the tasks that were required of me and
got the results needed. My question is if there are multiple ways of doing
the same task , is it that they are looking for a task to be done in a
certain way or are they just looking for working results . If the latter
is true , I should have passed . Please advise me as I feel very lost and
without a clue...
Thanks
Jaspreet
