And yes, I conquered the beast on the first try, CCIE #26509 !!!! I basically shouted my heart out when I saw that I passed, I placed my face on the bed and just shouted, I just couldn't believe it. I gave my wife the honor to login and see the result :-) First, want to thank GOD for everything !!! Second, I want to give a special thanks to my wife who has been there all the way and the pain that we need to endure for more than 11 months of preparation. She had to endure my stubbornness :-( and temperament :-(. Thank you Kay !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Third, I want to thank you to a very special friend of mine, he saw how it is prepared till we went to Sydney to take my exam, he was there till the day I took the exam, rode with me to the lab center in the morning :-) Thank you Lix !!!! And Lastly, thank you IPExpert and this list, I may not be that noisy on this list, but i've been absorbing all i can from this list and taking notes of the problem and issue that can arise from each different technology. I've compiled everything i can on all situation that can arise. So, here it it, it's really doable guyz, no magic!!! To be honest and not breaking anything on the NDA, I didn't finish all the task, I had 5 task left out so it was really close a call , I told my wife and my friend afterwards that if i'll fail this, it's really going to be very close to the passing mark of 80. But I really knew i locked down those task that I answered. I followed what Joe and Jared has always said, don't be tempted to pound on your keyboard immediately, I wasted close to an hour just drawing and internalizing what they want before starting. I screwed up on my Frame Relay in relation to OSPF, it was really my fault, i guess i was a really nervous, lost 15 minutes on there troubleshooting, i said to myself, i'm already dead if i can't get this up and running in 30 minutes , no way i'll pass, it was when i got back on my feet on this that I got the confidence to have a chance to pass the exam. and i just pounded on the keyboard like crazy to catch up thinking along the way all the task that they want me to do. This is where I said to myself, thank GOD i read the whole thing already and I knew which direction i'm going to take. What I did for the OEQ? On my last week before leaving for Sydney, I just reviewed the CCIE Written Study Guide, TCP/IP Vol1 and Vol II. took notes on those little things that you take for granted while simulating. Wish everybody all the luck, don't let it get into your nervs , if you will let it, you already lost the battle during the exam. Take Control and stay on top. I'm taking a month off, get back to the world now and ordering the resources for SP, will be at the SP mailing list absorbing again what i did from here. :-) Cheers!
