Congrats Adam,
May I recommend celebrating with a white rabbit? I know what a disappointing trip it can be coming out of Sydney.

I'm starting to see a trend in successful CCIEs... They all seem to blog or write about areas they have trouble with. Did you find this useful? Did you see it make a significant improvement in areas you had trouble with?

Cheers, leigh

Thanks Nick,

But Fosters? Yuck, we export that because hardly anyone will drink it over
here :)  However I will have (several) good Australian craft beers instead

Cheers,
Adam

Subject: [OSL | CCIE_RS] Got my number

Hi guys,

Earlier on in the week, I faced off the CCIE lab (for the fifth) time
and
this time round I got my number!

For the first three attempts I was able to get through the
configuration
portion but the troubleshooting got me down (though each time my
marks
in
that area improved)
The fourth attempt, I guess I put too much focus on addressing my
troubleshooting shortcomings because things got flipped around and I
passed
TS but failed configuration.

At least I knew I was now able to pass both sections, I just somehow
needed
to make them both occur at the same time.

Fortunately for me, on Tuesday I was able to make that happen and
obtained
my digits.  I think only those that didn't pass on the first go have
an
understanding of the relief I (and my wife who was so supporting in
each
non-successful attempt) felt.

In particular mailing lists like this one provided quite a bit of
motivation to keep things going when things didn't seem to go so well
for
me, simply seeing other people keen to do things and asking questions
(and
sometimes being able to provide suggestions myself) helped me
re-group
and
re-focus and not give up.  Now I get to brag like all the others that
made
it through!

My blog which has a longer version of this story and a bunch of other
things I learnt along the way is here http://noshut.blogspot.com/for
those
that could be interested.

I'm not planning on doing another track any time soon but never say
never....
