Passed ONT today...

Passed with a 855 this time. I tried to go slower this time around but still ended 38min early. There were a few areas I did worse the second time around, but I did a lot better overall. Here are my scores to compare. The first time will be on the left.

Desc. VoIP 76 92
Desc. QoS considerations 61 100
Desc DiffServ QoS impl. 69 84
Impl. AutoQoS 72 63
Impl WLAN sec and manag 61 53

The funny part is that I know exactly why I did worse on the last two. Since I had surgery I did not have the chance to finish reading the study guide and those two sections were the sections I had left to read. The study guide is 10% better than the online net acad material and I highly recommend it.

On to reviewing for the BSCI! I think I will stick with the study guide versus re-reading the online Net Acad material that I have already read from when I went through it.

Thanks guy! I actually took my eye drops in with me and had my face like 2 inches from the screen the whole time. The other people in the room probably thought I was crazy or on drugs.

There were a TON of people doing MS certs there though. All the testing centers around me (5 within 10 miles) have been PACKED with people doing the MS certs. I used to be able to schedule a test for the next day but now I have to do it like a week in advance.

Does the testing center do VUE and Prometric? Cisco is exclusively with VUE and MS is with Prometric.

Yeah, all of the testing centers around me do both. Haven't been to one yet that only does one and I have been to three in the area so far.
