Re: What's your View on Mock Lab Result

For what it is worth, I believe that NetMasters is, in truth, harder
than the real lab, and I have been to the real lab also. But there is
some random chance in any one of them. You might get a few things you
are really good at, or you might get a few things you aren't as good
at. Is this the only NetMaster mock lab you have done? If you are
doing the series and did better on others, I wouldn't beat yourself up
about it. In the end even a Mock Lab is just an exercise for learning.

For myself, I tend to loose point on really stupid stuff. I lost 3
points on a NetMasters Mock Lab because it said "secure the multicast
with an access-list called MCAST" and dumb me only read as far as the
word access-list so I didn't use the right access list name.
