I took my lab back in March for the second time and failed. When I got my
results it appeared that I had received marks for sections that I had not
answered correctly. I called Cisco and they agreed to open the scoring sheet
as I was making what they felt was a weird accusation and evidently I had
put in the command they were looking for even though the complete solution
may not have worked. They would not rescore unless I paid but it cleared my
mind a bit. Another guy in my lab had a scenario that he tested and verified
and still got 0 marks, he rescored and still failed.
I have to agree that when you fail you fail and if Cisco want you to fail
you fail!
