Bad luck Joe.....
But don't give up......you will definitely succeed....I think no 9 is
going to be lucky for you.
What all study material u used for study...did u do all mock labs of IE
Expert or IP Expert. However, I want to tell you something here that
there are few areas apart from Switching/IGP and EGP where you can score
good but for that you will have to search a lot in the
internet.....because as fas as I know every body does good in
Switching/IGP and EGP but the area where they can earn more points they
do not focus..... Like one example I can give you; "service nagle". I
know this is not tough if you have gone through all workbooks but still
question asked by CCIE lab might twist the entire statement and
interestingly he might be asking for "service nagle" only.
So there are more as such things.....RMON is one of them.....you might
not be sure how to configure %age value of rising and falling thresh
hold (you might be confused with Delta/Abolute option).....there are
many more.....
My advice to you is that you should not only do all workbooks/mock labs
but also u need to explore internet heavily...
Good luck for next time

Subject: Failed Again
I took my lab for the 8th time yesterday and I left feeling pretty good
about my attempt but when the score report came out it was a fail.
During the lab I was able to finish all configurations 3 hours early and
then checked and double checked all the requirements. I thought I nailed
Switching, IGP, and EGP but my scores were very low in the IGP section.
The proctors at the location where I took my lab were not that very
helpful. In fact one of them was downright terrible. I like to ask for
clarification on all items I am unsure about and every time I went to
this proctor to ask questions he would roll his eyes and let out a sigh.
It was almost as if I was bothering him to ask questions! By the end of
the day I would come to him with my two options to configure a certain
task and he would just tell me that I could do it both ways and not
loose points. Well I now believe that cost me at least a few points.
Overall I am not happy with the CCIE track and I think I am going to
throw in the towel because I can no longer afford to keep taking this
exam and failing.
Joe
