in CCNP
Well, CCNP is complete with the passing of ISCW this afternoon. I had to brave terrible weather to get to the testing center, all in all it took me about 2 1/2 hours when it should have only taken me about 45 mins (we are expecting about 11 inches of snow up in my area). Luckily when I called the testing center they told me that there was nobody behind me scheduled to sit any exams so I could take my time getting there. Huge relief that was.

Anyway, ISCW is not an easy exam so don't take it lightly in the least. Make sure that you're using multiple sources for the material as I found the Cisco Press book to be lacking in quite a few areas. I added CBT Nuggets to the mix and a few Cisco docs online. I have to get my VCP by July 1 to be eligible for a promotion and bonus so that's my next one to take down.

    Nice work on your pass of the CCNP. Take a short break to get your head clear before going into VMware.

    I just passed my VCP 4.0 about 2 weeks ago.
    The more knowledge one obtains the more there is too accumulate.....

    Thanks a lot guys, I appreciate it.

    @penny: i plan on taking at least one week before hitting the VCP trail, I've heard the 4.0 exam is, shall i say, a female dog

    @mikej: haha, no shoveling necessary, we have dem der snow blowers up here. I had a celebratory weight lifting session afterwards and flexed on all four exam books with saliva and veins and protein power flying everywhere. It's just how I do things after I've owned them lol...i know, i know, TMI...
