I am not shutting down a darn thing unless a task explicitly or
implicitly requires it!!!!!!!!!!!!
In fact this is my rule for anything I go to do at that keyboard in the
lab!
The only thing I can recall doing that they did not ask me to was a full
connectivity test (TCL Script) and other necessary verifications. Notice
that these verifications do not actually change anything!

Subject: RE: Shutting unused interface CCIE lab
We had this discussion just this week. I offered that I like to shut
everything down using the interface range command and then enable things
individually as I configure/verify. It occurred to me yesterday as I
was
starting a new lab that the other advantage this has is ensuring that
you
don't forget to shut your physical ports when doing PortChannels.
At the end of the day, it's not a big overall impact one way or the
other.
Just pick an approach you're comfortable with and stick with it
always...

Well I think if the port is 'unused' in it's purest sense then it's
probably
shutdown anyway to be fair.
Main thing is of course to follow requirements but also to apply common
sense
as well as best practice. If making sure an interface is shut down helps
you
out then I would say do it. Just makes sure you don't break something
you
need!

I think you will be wasting your time doing this. On the contrary ,
you
might have to unshut some ports to get your topology working. My advice
is
not
to spend time doing tasks that are not required in the exam because you
will
need every minute of it. No marks for perfection!!!
