OK..

It uses a clunky java interface with is totally different from the actual
lab.

It does match the gear thats in the actual CCIE lab.

The grading system is clunky, for example if you use subinterfaces with
numbers that match the vlans and the grading system is looking for f0/0.1 &
f0/0.2 its marked wrong even though the question didn't state you had to use
.1 & .2.

You might be better off using a mock lab from like internetwork expert or
another vendor I gained more knowledge from those mock labs than the
Assesor.
