everyone has their good days and bad days. no one is perfect. i know the
ccie team cares a great deal about the ccie program and the proctors take
their job very seriously. they are there to assist, but not to give away
answers. they are not going to be "mean" to you intentionally. you
shouldnt worry so much about the proctors as you should "knowing your
stuff." if you know your stuff cold, the proctors should have a very small
impact on the results of your ccie lab attempt. if you have an equipment
issue, and they are unable to help, that could hurt - however, if you
understand the material and can show them that there is an equipment issue,
they have been in my previous experiences, VERY attentive.
thanks,

Hi Guys..
is there any way to know who the proctors are in each testting site and how
they are in terms of their attitude..Well it is understood that they are
there to help but sometimes they can play a spoil sport and be moody and not
give satisfactory replies...
