Sounds like a feedback loop.
When the frequency of a radio signal drifts, the phased locked loop of
the tuner will resettle to the new signal frequency.
When the lab content changes, the questions in the forum changes, till
the active members of Groupstudy resettle to study the new content.
Is this a NDA problem? Maybe, BUT maybe not!
For example, when a CCIE passes his test, then writes a studyguide a
year later, he is using all of knowledge he has learned to write the
studyguide. Are studyguides a NDA problem? No, because Cisco publishes
them, therefore any content in such a guide could never be an NDA
problem.
Another example, a while back, when a new CCIE posted his pass message,
he posted in the message that IGRP was the devil. Which I could deduce
that the gentleman had IGRP on his exam, and it caused him great
problems. Because of this feedback message, I broke out my books a
reviewed IGRP.
Is the above a text book example of a NDA violation? Lets think about
it, it was already general knowledge that IGRP was on the exam. It is
also general knowledge that IGRP is hard to work with. Third point,
Cisco has posted a message that IGRP is being removed from the exam,
which means that must have been there in the first place.
I cite the above to reinforce my point that Groupstudy is in a phased
locked feedback loop with the lab exam, if fact in order to help each
other to study, it must have that relationship with the exam in order to
be effective.

I agree with a few exceptions. I think as a group we are developing
better
sutdy practices but I also think that there is some cheating going on.
Just
watch the numbers. When the pass rate gets to around 100 per week the
questions on the group are all answered for the most part and people are
just tweeking the answers. Then out of the clear blue sky a new batch
of
questions start poping up, at that same time the pass number drops to 40
-50
per week. look at the last time that happned (july 27/28). It seems
to be
a trend.
Just my 2 cents
