Hello Everyone,

I was desperately waiting to write this Email.
All those who used to write this Email I used to show to my fianci and
tell her hope someday I will write this Email. And today is my
day!!!!!!!
My heartiest thanks my GOD, he showered his blessings over me and I
passed the exam at first attempt.
It's all because of my parents and my love Poonam, who always kept on
saying study study......and prayed for me.
My friends Mayur, Aman, and Gaurav were the moral and technical support
for me.
I really thank the Proctor for his co-operation to bear me in the exam I
took my exam on 17th January in Dubai. After the exam,I didn't check my
results, Farhan you really showed daring to check ur results yourself on
the spot, but I couldn't.
Till next morning until I reached my place back from the Exam, I was
just thinking how to go for the next attempt, how to manage my
preparation and all.
but as soon as I reached , my Fianci didn't stop smiling, I still didn't
understand why is she smiling, she told me that I have cleared the exam,
and I didn't believe it until I myself checked on internet, it was
really precious moment for me to hear this great news, I could not
believe that I am a CCIE now till next 2-3 days.
Both of the Brian Dennis and Brian Mcghan are super duper hit, I
strongly tell you that when I joined group study on May 2007, and the
people asking questions there, I really used to think that I even don't
know what are they asking. But when I got IE CODs and workbook, I learnt
most of the stuff from there, and was capable of understanding the
questions and answers at least, then I didn't see behind and kept moving
for Eight months day and night feeling that I am very behind. The last 2
months I don't know when I sleep and when I eat and when I practice.
On the Lab Day, at the last moment in the exam, I made a huge mistake,
to forcibly attempt a question that was breaking my reachability, so I
was in a doubt that it would deduct many marks , but all went well and I
got my number.
For those who have to take their exams , I will strongly recommend that
don't forcibly attempt anything you don't know and after doing every
question, keep on crosschecking that you did, is perfect. Don't overlook
the question read it carefully, that's only where the crux is and fight
till the last second of the exam, don't give up, there was one question
that took more than 45 minutes for me but I believed that I can do this
and finally got it.

Tips:- First complete your exam, and then come back to the missed ones
that you didn't attempt or were not crosschecked.

I really thank to GS, from where I learnt a lot and heartiest thanks to
all people here for prompt answers of my stupid questions.
I don't say that I am perfect but I believe in :- "Practice Practice
again makes a man perfect" Don't be discourage and Just practice a
Lotsss n lotssss on your rack, finally you will get your one.
Thanks once again to all of You.
