failed BSCI today

aueddonlineaueddonline Member Posts: 611 ■■□□□□□□□□
failed today with 744 so not way off but still no cigar non of the subjects were that bad but there was alot of questions on DHCP which I didn't expect only got 40% on features. I was a bit mad they didn't test me on route-map and hardly any distribute-lists questions as i'd worked a lot on them leading up to the exam I'll brush up on my DHCP and multicast and go again in a couple weeks.

finished with 11 minutes spare this time to so atleast time isn't an issue

    This is the reason I always try to stress to people to know ALL the material because the exams always seem to ask more questions in the areas I didn't think would be stressed as much as others. You know your weakness, no go back and knock it out!!

    Good luck!!

    I had lots of dhcp and multicast questions on mine too...but don't worry you'll nail it the next time...

    I also heard that cisco is letting people retake exams for free...you might want to look into that.

    Good luck on your next attempt!

    Please give us more information on this. I think that sounds too good to be true.

    Check out aragoen_celtdra's post in this thread.

    If it's true, then you can count this one as a practice test. :D

    Yep, take it again for free. No sweat. You put up a very solid score for a failing effort. You're almost there, push on to finish :)

    good luck next time mate, that offer is too good, don't let it pass by.
  • aueddonlineaueddonline Member Posts: 611 ■■□□□□□□□□
    cheers guys I thought that offer was just for people re-certing when I first saw it,

    I just tried to reschedule the test again for a couple weeks time but when I put the promo code in it says 'this promo can't be used on the web'!!!! which doesn't make sense because the link up on the other post says it has to be done on the web.

    I'll try to book again monday

    I can't wait to get the BSCI out the way so I can move on to some new material

    The only discrepancy from the info on that page and what she told me is how to re-schedule. On that page it said "Free exams may only be scheduled via the web." but according to her I have to call them directly and give them the magic word "second chance". To save you the extra leg work, the number is (877) 404-3926.

    I don't even schedule over the net any more. TWICE I was able to schedule a test at a testing center that was shut down weeks prior (without my knowledge). When someone is paying you $150+ you can't let them schedule exams in nonexistent places.
