Suck like CyscoExpert? May I offer another perspective?
I went to CyscoExpert for two weeks before my lab, and it was the best
learning experience of my life. Mindbending labs, nice equipment, and
all of the one-on-one coaching from very bright, patient CCIEs that you
can stand for 12 hours a day. What more could a router jock ask for?
Brian McGahan is one of the smartest people I have ever met, and Bahram
is definitely the finest instructor I have learned from on any subject.
Peter is one of those rare triple CCIEs and the other instructors are
just run-of-mill smart CCIEs with master EEs or years of instructing
experience.
I know that 5 of the people I studied with at CyscoExpert have passed
the lab. That is the highest accolade I could think of for a bootcamp.
The high quality, intensive instruction I received there is a LARGE part
of the reason I got my number.
I would offer that any top-flight CCIE bootcamp could be a very
frustrating experience if you are not far down to path to being ready
for the lab already. There is so much to know that even the best school
will only be able to give you that last 5 - 10% to put you over the top.
Prepare very seriously before spending the money, so you can maximize
the benefits.
I am not affiliated with CyscoExpert in any way.

Hi, George:
Which one you went? Unitek or Ipexpert?
If IPexpert, when was your bootcamp? I also had a
very bad experience in IPexpert 7/14-18's class.
Until now, I haven't received the lab solutions from
Brian. Ridiculous?
I should say many firms doing the ccie business have
used groupstudy alias fooling around the subscribers
badly, suck like Cyscoexpert is another terrible case
I have experienced in March/April. Hellocomputer is
even worse...
Pls let me know more details about your case. I plan
to write to Paul, the person hosting the alias, and
all the public about these cheating businesses after
my August exam. My advice is just dispute the credit
charge fully/partially if they don't deserve it.
Have a day and a good study.
Best regards,
-Debbie Lu
