I passed the R&S lab in RTP today! It was my first attempt but it sure has
been a long road to get here. I passed the CCNA back in 1999 and my quest
for CCIE began shortly after. I really hit it hard over the past 5 months.
I started studying and practicing about 4-6 hours on the weekdays (even
sneaking some in at work) and 8-12 hours on the weekends.
I was able to work through everything without any major issues. I did get
held up on one task for about 30 minutes or so but didn't panic. I finished
with about 2 hours to spare and checked and verified everything
exhaustively. I ran the entire lab back through my head over and over as I
was driving home. I felt like I did well enough to pass but we all know how
that goes... I was very surprised to find my score report when I got home
just 4 hours later. I've never heard of anyone getting their score report
that fast.
Anyway thank you all for your posts. I've learned a lot from everyone and I
will continue to be an active member here. There are many ways to get there
but I can share a bit of what helped me. I know that there are a lot of
good practice labs and mock labs out there but I have to recommend
NetMasterClass. The CheckIT labs really prepared me to spot issues in the
real lab and alerted me to things that could potentially trip me up. The
assessor labs are well worth the money to see how the CCIE lab is worded and
laid out in relation to what you're used to seeing. Definitely know the Doc
CD inside and out. I didn't even do any labs the past few weeks. I just
read through the config guides and command references. Build your own
scenarios as you read through them. Test and verify!
Thanks again and good luck to all of you in your studies and future
endeavors!
