RE: Whose workbook did you use to fail with?

Shoot! So what you are saying is that sleeping with difference Cisco Press books underneath my pillow & mattress is really not helping?

Now I have to come up with a new study plan :)

I would like to add Font:+10; Bold to the above statement.

One *can not* pass the lab without understanding how and why things
work the way they do. Knowing entire configuration and command guides
by heart won't help you pass, unless you understand the underlying
technology.

The tools we make and classes we deliver are there to help you save
*some* time and give you *some* direction. Ultimately, it's up to you.

I will use my example here. My fiance is finishing her master thesis
in International Environmental Law. Our house at the moment is filled
with tens of thousands of legal books and academic papers. Since I'm
exposed to their presence every day - am I now a lawyer. If not, is it
the fault of those authors, or me that I haven't spent past X years of
my life reading all that? :-)
