> Oh yeah, I flunked attempt number four in SJ on Tuesday.

awww :( But, don't give up!

So yea I flunked my first attempt today at RDU. I know how it feels.
What really got me is that after viewing the score report, I was close to pass.
Just a few necessary points killed it.

When I looked at the score report, I pretty much realized where I screwed up.
It appears after all seems to be my misinterpretation of how the Cisco wordings
of the question wanted the solution to be configured. And apparently it wasn't
done to their likings, hence no partial credit. What threw me off even more into
dissapointment is on couple topics that I KNEW I was very weak on, I scored
100% on those, but not on the ones I knew well? Talk about irony..

As a result, I am going to invest in that new 50 dollars Parctical Lab studies
or whatever book from Cisco Press (I have the link somewhere, just dont remember
the name top of my head) as well as DQOS book. Then focus specifically into
where I exactly failed, and attempt and reattempt various IPexpert labs,
specifically the nightmare and brutual Lab39 and Lab40 in ipexpert which scares
the shit out of everyone, then go for 2nd Lab attempt soon.

It appears I'll need to continue configurating IGP on routers 24/7, and
continue redistributing them at 6 point places while keeping best+backup paths
available until the whole technology becomes fast-switched in my head, where
during the lab, fingers start typing without any thinking done, assisted by
that small ASIC in your brain that got brainwashed with 300 hours of big messy
IGP trainwreck :)

Either way, no hard feelings. I hate the Boston weather anyway.
