Hi,
Having only a 50% success rate in the lab, my opinion may not be worth much.
I'd encourage you to do whatever is specified, of course, but you should also
add configurations that are not specified as long as they are not specifically
forbidden to deliver the requested results. Don't be afraid to put on
configurations that are not specifically requested if they are the best way
you can work out to deliver what was requested.
Good luck next time.

Subject: Failed Second Attempt at RTP Yesterday. Need Advice Please
Hi, everyone
My first attempt was in January. The main reasons I failed that one was my
lack of experience with four switches, time management, proper rest before the
exam. (Slept one hour before the test)
This time around, I was much more prepared and relaxed but couldn!/t come
through. There was no technology mentioned in the test that I had no clue
about. I studied extensively for all the topics in the blueprint. I complied
all my notes from the written exam, practice labs, white papers, classes, and
synced the notes with the DOC CD. In the end, I knew at least the basic
knowledge about most topics and where every thing is located in the DOC CD.
However, I had major difficulty in interpreting some of the task given in the
exam and lost a lot of time. My question is how one can prepare for these
vague and ambiguous questions? For example, if the task asks for X and some
kind of variation for Y is needed for X to work, but Y is not even mentioned
in the exam.
I am beginning to loose confidence in my ability to ever pass the exam. I
don't know maybe I just need a little break from it all. But, I know this is
one major hurdle I need to overcome to pass the exam any input will be greatly
appreciated.
