BSCI
I took BSCI today and I didnt pass. I Received 744, passing is 790. It was my first attempt at it. I did worst on EIGRP and BGP.
Sims were cake.
I used CBT nuggets, cisco press exam cert guide, and Transcender.
I feel that if I re-read the cisco press chapters and re-watch the nuggets, I will pass on the next attempt. I'll let y'all know.
Do the other 3 exams get easier after BSCI? Also, which do you recommend I go for after BSCI?

They do, although since GUI and security are not my cup of tea I thought the ISCW was just as hard. The BCMSN and ONT I thought were cake compared to the BSCI.Give a man fire and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life. -

The difficulty is relative to your understanding of the material and no one else can really give you a good idea of how hard it will be for you.
Personally I found the BSCI to be the easiest of the exams so far (BCMSN, BSCI and ISCW). It was the exam most related to the work I was doing at the time I was studying so every thing was interesting and I learned a lot of practical stuff I could apply on a daily basis so I guess the material stuck. I found ISCW to be the hardest because I wasn't very interested in the SDM and it was hard for me to stay focused.An expert is a man who has made all the mistakes which can be made. -

It took me roughly 5 days to recover mentally after passing the BSCI.. it's meant to be hard even if you work with it everyday.. though if you have worked with the stuff for *YEARS* then naturally it won't be as bad.CCIE - COMPLETED!

Congrats and great perserverance!
I usually hang out on 224.0.0.10 (FF02::A) and 224.0.0.5 (FF02::5) when I'm in a non-proprietary mood.

The BCMSN was a lot easier for me. Although, this all depends on your prior experience and what you find more interesting as previously mentioned. I like mls a lot so that kept me interested."Check both the destination and return path when a route fails." "Switches create a network. Routers connect networks."
