Re: TSHOOT or Not?

if you did not have your CCNP than i would say yes might as well just to add
to your paper trail of certs, but you could spend the money on what it would
cost for the TSHOOT exam on some kind of study material, take your pick of
all the things out there, and be better off...

unless you just have money to blow and going to a pearsonvue center gives
you the ajada and you want to feel some kind of pressure other than sitting
at your computer and doing labs...
