>> 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
