Hi guys,

After a long,tiring and painful journey, I got my precious*
CCIE#28593*today morning.
Happy to share my success story to all of you.

Started my CCNA journey on 4 July 2009.and prepared from my FAVORITE
AUTHOR
"WENDELL ODOM" and used Jeremys Videos (CBT Nuggets) .I completed my
CCNA
exam on September 30 2009.

October
10 2010 and started studying my Switching Paper (BCMSN) and Routing
Paper
(BSCI) and finished my COMPOSITE EXAM (642-892). on Jan 10 2010 and
started
my QOS and ISCW journey for another 3 months and finally accomplished my
CCNP in April 15 2010.

Then started my CCIE journey without any break straightaway and
kickstarted
with my David Hucaby book for Switching and also referred Wendell Odom

Then i kickstarted my Volume 2 of Jeff Doyle and it took 3 months for me
to

Then i shifted my focus towards QOS and i started reading QOS Exam Guide
by
my "Wendell Odom" which is a damn good book and it took me 1 month to
