I know the feeling except I went to RTP. Walked out thinking I had it
this time, by my scoring I had worste mid 80's. Unfortunately Cisco
fails to give you any real idea what was wrong. But hey when you own the
cert program you can make your own rules. At $1250 a pop they can at
least give you alittle of how you blew it! I'll go back again but
summer sure is a hard time to sit at a desk when you could be out doing
anything else.
