Ahh your right.. I stand corrected. !

I havent yet sat my first attempt and my LAB is booked Nov which is
13mths after I completed the written. So this thread was of great
interest to me and important enough for me to contact cisco directly
for clarification(even though it was cleary posted on CCO).

thanks again :-)
