Subject: Ladies and Gentlemen, Please be upstanding for CCIE#15331
> All,
>
> I passed yesterday at Brussels - 2nd attempt.
>
> I flew home yesterday evening and anxiously awaiting my result, I stayed
> up until 1, still no mail. I woke up this morning at 6 to find it
> waiting in my inbox. A big deep breath later and I saw the mystical
> number "15331". I was nearly sick!!
>
> I know for a fact that I could not have passed this exam without the
> help and guidance of this group study forum. When I first signed up to
> group study, I was blown away by how much I didn't know and would have
> to learn. Slowly, but surely, I chipped away at it and the hard work
> has paid off.
>
> Quick tips for CCIE success:-
> Buy a big white board from IKEA!! It cost me about #6 ($10) and was one
> of the best assets in my home lab.
>
> Material that I read:- (this is not the whole list by a long shot - but
> the key ones)
> Bridger, Routers and Switches by Caslow
> Cisco Cookbook from O'Reilly
> The bible that is the InternetworkExpert Work Book.
>
> And now some heartfelt thank you's
>
> Brian and Brian - without the effort and passion that you put into what
> you, I'm sure that I would not be here. I remember watching a few of
> the online classrooms of yours and marveling at the sheer love for the
> subject that you fellas have - Inspiring.
>
> Lee Donald - Yes, you were an inspiration. When we were sat in the bar
> after my first attempt, I remember thinking, with a bit more effort - I
> could be that happy!!
>
> Scott Morris - I know that most everyone thanks you, but you deserve all
> the thanks you get. Your posts on Group Study always seem to have an
> elegant clarity to them, which makes it all seem, well, easy !
>
> All of Group Study - Without the questions that are asked and the
> support that is given on this board, I know that it would have taken me
> a long, long time to get my ccie, and would probably have given up. It
> is a very demanding mistress, but reading all of the stories from the
> board encouraged me to push on.
>
> Once again - thank you one and all, I could not have done it without you.
