PhD? Not really. I'd have to get a Masters' first I think, and it costs a
lot of money and wouldn't exactly bring me any benefit! I'm more into the
"instant gratification" thing. :)
 
Recerts don't scare me.

Scott you are the king of certifications! Did you ever think of taking a
break and getting a Phd in networking? That never expires ;)

I finally became a CCIE - 2 weeks back on the 21st of Dec. 2005.

After 2 weeks of being in a state of daze and going Nuts, I am finally
coming back to my normal senses ;->

It has been a very long and painful journey for my family and me, but thank
God it's all over.

I would like to thank each and every member of Groupstudy for helping me out
when I had all those (stupid) questions.

I have been part of this forum for 7 years now when I first got my CCNA way
back in 1998 and there are a lot of people who have been wonderful in taking

their personal time to help people like me understand a lot of complex
topics that is required for the Lab.

Thank you all.

I would like to also thank CyscoExpert in Chicago without whom I might not
have made it this time.

Their training methodology is what helped me pass this time.

I would highly recommend them to those candidates that have attempted the
Lab or are about to take it the first time - Either way, their training will

help you to understand where and what you are doing wrong. Being able to
interpret the questions the correct way will help you to pass the Lab.
Naren and Bahram-thank you so much.

I would also like to thank the Brians for their wonderful workbook - This is

a must-have workbook to be able to prepare for the Lab.

I would also like to thank Scott Morris who has been answering my questions
since my MCSE/CCNA days in BrainBuzz and also in this forum.
Scott, I guess you are next time around in DC, we will have to head to Ned
Devines !!!! ;->

One last thing: For those who are married and have kids - this IS Possible.
Just takes a little longer but you will get there eventually. Just don't
give up.

Luck and Execution - those are my Golden Words now !!

Good Luck.

Sincerely,

Niraj Palikhey
CCIE 15588
