I finally get to write one of these emails.
It was a long and difficult 2 years, but I finally passed my lab exam on
Friday 5/7. I prepared using the standard methods and tools. A rack at
work, all the books that have been listed a hundred times on this board and
two different workbooks. Plus many, many hours on that rack.
I want to thank all the people on this list for all the advice and help I
received during this process. It is an invaluable tool I know contributed
towards this achievement.
I want to thank NetMasterClass. Indy, Val and everybody else there were
great to me. The customer assistance is top notch. Their prep labs and
workbook were what got me over the top.
I want to thank my brother Rolando. He put me in my place when I thought I
was ready and encouraged me when I thought I would never be. Because of him
I am a little smarter today.
The biggest thanks go to my wife, Graciela. Without her I would not have
been able to do this. She managed to run the house, take care of our two
little ones and all those other things wives do, while I spent all my free
time studying. The love, support and patience she showed me were
invaluable.
One KEY thing that helped me pass was taking my time during the exam. Taking
my time and forcing myself to think about every line of code I configured
(and didn't configure) were the differences between this attempt and
previous others where I was not successful. This is doable. Just stay after
it!
One last thing and I'm not sure if this matters, but I didn't eat the lunch
that day. I just had some Mountain Dew. It looked really good, but who the
hell knows what's in that stuff. One less obstacle, I say.
The hardest part is over, but this process will never be truly over. We
have to re-certify in two years.
Thanks,
Danny Andaluz, CCIE #13269
