Re: CCIE in first attempt ...

Hi
    Keep the aim as " Want to do in my first attempt" is good. But my Best
Advice is Take all the inputs / recommendations and make a plan yourself to
achieve that because you are the only one who know about your level fully .
From my experience even though still did not pass the Lab, i can tell you

* do not leave / skip any part part of the blue print when you are
preparing

* do not try to speed up when you are starting , recommend to take few days
(may be up to 5
    days ) to do a lab and build a good base , later on you can speed up .

* If you did not know some part of the lab , you can go through the answers
and get idea but it
    will be helpfull if you can take some short notes and re read those
when you have free time

* Start the practice with one vender (selection is up to you )and once you
came to a good level and can understand most of the logic , then can have
look with some other.

* try to allocate all the free times for preparation untill get it done ,
do not keep multiple aims
   simultaniously.

Regards,
Anbu
