Re: which workbook are you using and why

Hi,

I would say the choices of most candidates have usually depended on the
track being pursued, and as such the strengths of the vendors.

For instance, most candidates would not turn to internetworkexpert for
preparation materials on Storage or Voice tracks, but would do so for R&S
and Security.

Most would turn to iementor for storage or SP bootcamps but not for the
other tracks.

IPExperts usually comes to the minds of many when mention is made of the
Voice track (besides their strengths in R&S and Security).

This is not to say that none of these vendors can help you in all tracks.
But they each have their strengths, and that shows even in their workbooks.
Obviously how much time and resources invested in any workbook also depends
on how much market a vendor perceives to be there for the given track.

That is why IE would do anything for the most excellent workbook on R&S, but
defy that level of excellency with their workbooks in other tracks.

This just happens to be my personal opinion and that heard from other
candidates. As they say opinions are like noses.

Regards,

Felix Nkansah, CCIE
