Subject: I PASSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CCIE #17286
GS,
I just wanted to let everyone know that I passed yesterday at RTP. I
have
waited a while to send out an email to this group. The emails that
everyone would send once they passed kept me motivated and hopefully
this
will motivate some one else.
This was a tough road for me and I honestly felt like giving up
sometimes
but the strength within me and the MAN upstairs pulled me through. I
passed the written in September of last year and started studying for
the
lab in March this year but I took the wrong approach. I tried to learn
by lab as IE would call it. I did this for about 5 months only to find
out during my first attempt that I was in the category of didnt have a
clue or I did not know thy options as NMC categorizes candidates.
This
is the WORST approach that you can take to prepare for this exam. I just
about had to relearn everything that I thought I knew the right way
which
was read books, RFCs, google and then lab it up. After I did this I
then
started to do the labs. I took some mock labs over the past couple of
weeks that I didnt score really high on but it was always an issue with
interpretation. Once I got to this point I knew that I was ready and
three months after my first attempt I passed.
I would like to thank IE and NMC for the material that they provide. I
would like to especial like to thank Indy from NMC and Mike from IE.
They
both were very patient with me and provided help when I needed. Thanks
to
everyone on this list for asking questions and to those who answered
them
whether right or wrong. My motto is no question is a dumb question.
