After watching lots of candidates who do the labs 2 or 3 time and fail
.. I said I have to do something different
I have delayed touching volume II labs till I felt I am "really"
confident that I can do them with some ease
My strategy was to study study study .. then do the 20 labs in 20
days!!! One lab per day, 7 am to 4 pm .. don't touch the solution till
I finish And if I do pass 15 out of the 20 .. then I am ready and I
will go to the exam after repeating some labs here and there
My philosophy: If I can do a tough task without help "today".. then I
will be able to do it after 1 year !!
I am now done with lab 6 .. with the following conclusions:
1.I am not speeding up in config
2.I am really good in core technologies (finish after 3 hours) .. but
weak in the rest ( takes the rest of the day
3.without considering the stupid mistakes .. I somehow passed half of these labs
4.the most thing I hate is a wordy question.. where I have to read it
maybe 3 times in order to find out what it is actually asking for..
this consumes time gets me bored quickly ..
5.is it me or there are mistakes in every lab (half answers, hidden
side effects, not optimal solutions..etce)
some ccie told me to do the labs at least twice he said yes.. u need
to memorize and speed up
my goal is to pass from the first shoot any ccie who has some advice
in the way to approach the labs with most benefit
thanks a lot and mind my english
