I can speak to the InternetworkExpert Mock labs - I have taken three of the
four so far and I feel there is no better barometer for how you will do!
 In fact - the mock labs point out what puzzles so many about the actual lab
experience.....I felt FOR SURE I passed Mock Lab 3 with an 86 - yet I failed
with a 74. These labs are excellent at demonstrating the many ways that you
think you are earning points during the lab when you are in fact NOT earning
points.
 The only issue with the mock labs that I can see is that you might be
little TOO FAST at completing them because you get so used to their STYLE of
lab. For example, InternetworkExpert always tends to structure the 3550
section the same way.....in the actual lab you will get diagrams and
instructions that may vary dramatically from what you are used to with
InternetworkExpert. To compensate for this - I would say that the
InternetworkExpert Mock Labs are substantially harder than the actual lab,
however.
