Hi All,
It gives me great pleasure to write this email that I have completed my
CCIE(R&S) on 14th July in Bangalore.
It has been a long journey so far. I started my studies from Sep 2007.
I failed by very low margin on my first attempt last month. However, I
was determined that I can do it. So I immediately booked my next slot
for 14th July.
A big contribution in my success and journey goes to my Wife. Without
her support it would not have been possible. Initially she was of view
that it would be easy go. But when I showed her too many success/failure
mails in groupstudy, she agreed that it needs lot of time and
dedication. She managed very well my 1.5 yrs old son and never
intererfed in my study. I still remember when she would give me tea 3-4
times in the midnight ;-). I used to tell her that a sip of tea gives me
boost to study. Thanks honey for your tea and full support.
Now regarding preparation, I would say stick with one vendor. I
primarily used Internetwork expert workbooks and they are deifinetly a
GEM. Although I did "CCIE pratical studies" as well.
In my final preparation, I did two mock labs from IE. They were really
good.
In the real lab exam, stick with what all others say: Make your own
diagram (L2/L3), read the entire questions first, go through full
configuration of routers and switches once. I spent 1.5 hours in these
things on my 2nd attempt. It was only after 1.5 hrs. when I started
doing lab configuration. And this strategy really paid.
I would like to thanks GS for being such a wonderful forum.
I would also like to thanks CCIERACK.COM (though I am not their agent),
they are very good (in terms of support) and extremely reasonable too.
Thank you everyone in GS and best wishes to all newbies.
Thanks & Regards,
