Scott,
A buddy of mine is taking his this Friday. He has been doing the core plus
some multi protocol and peripheral technolog labs for the last year.
His last "20" plan up to this coming friday has been:
Each day go through the full 8 hour IEWB lab for each day. Again he has been
at this for a year. I will keep you posted if he indeed is successful in
passing the lab
Thanks
