I can't believe people pass with just doing 4 or 5 labs 4 or 5 times...
I personally have seen several non-IE WB related topologies in the real lab.
Doing ALL 20 IE WB labs once, gave me those points from adaptation. My
scores thus far are 68, 72 and now 74-77 points in the real lab. Bummer...

Hi Brian,
Big IE fan here...but wouldn't doing the same labs over and over again
just get you used to a certain topology, so when you come across a new
topology in the lab it makes it harder to adapt?
Looking forward to your top five picks though...
Thanks,
Greg
