Re: OT - V4, week 1, no new CCIEs?

hahaha... sorry guy but many people din't pass between Feb and Oct... and
after OEQ introduction IMHO the lab exam wasn't ever a fair game... if you
got 100% in lab sectio and fail at least 2/4 in OEQ you failed.. so why the
"easiest of rides"?... if you weren't able to answer 3/4 OEQ game
over!! have you asked somebody who took the exam before Feb and
retook between Feb-Oct if the lab exam was more difficult before Feb, and
easy after Feb?
