Subject: Feedback from the InternetworkExpert Mock Labs
All,
I just wanted to say thanks to Brian and Brain for a wonderful breakdown
of the 4 Mock Labs I just had the opportunity to complete a couple of
weeks ago.
They were great and very helpful.
For those who want to know what they were like:
1. The labs were point-based with no partial credit and strictly limited
to about 8 hours with about 1/2 hour for a lunch or so.
2. You can and will lose points on dependencies (as I suspect happens in
the real lab).
3. Both Brians were highly professional and clear.
4. The labs were challenging and thought provoking and even things that
might appear subtle can have teeth.
5. Review and Feedback received per lab exam was amazingly clear and the
Class on Demand is a very good way to review what went right or wrong
for one in the course of the lab. Very good way to learn or "re-learn"
one's approach.
6. I would recommend that is you have the opportunity that there is
great advantage to using this class to prepare and to assess one's
readiness for the actual lab.
Disclaimer: I have not sat the lab yet - a few more days now...
7. Finally, I think the last day and Brian Dennis's discussion of lab
strategy and approach was probably worth cost of the lab and is
definately an advantage over just buying labs and doing them solo. I
was able to take my labs from the week, review them, and figure out
where my remaining weak points were, and then use some of the words of
wisdom from Brian and the CORE Lab workbook to build on those words, his
simple by elegant approach to building a network and at the same build
in speed and accuracy that I found myself still lacking during that week
of Mock Labs. I think this approach will have helped me quite a bit
overcome those last 15-25 points I need to get over the hump (since they
are directly attributed to attaining a certain approach, a certain
speed, a certain number of points per hour, and a certain level of
accuracy - all of which I found myself to be lacking but I think using
this "Approach" will help me get over each of these items in the actual
lab.
Again others may have a different opinion, this one is how I feel about
how their course of instruction will/has helped me prepare for my final
"Aproach" to my own goal of passing the CCIE Lab.
