Halfway there

So i took my BCMSN this morning and passed with a 909.. It was quite a bit harder than I anticipated, but it didn't leave me with the mind numbing experience as the BSCI did.

Now I know the logical progression would be the ISCW, but at the moment I am at a crossroads between doing the ISCW or the ONT.. for the the ISCW looks fun since I tend to enjoy firewalls and security.. and VPN is something i've been dying to learn more about. The brief intro to QoS from the BCMSN is kinda neat too though it took me a bit to wrap my head around.
CCIE - COMPLETED!

    I would save the ONT to last like Cisco recommends because it refers to IPSEC and GRE in certain situations and assumes you know how they work already.

    Congratulations, it's nice to get over that halfway-mark on your way to a cert. Sounds like the general concensus is ISCW for the next test on your hitlist. Good luck, whichever you choose to do first.
