Hey -- just posted over here: http://www.techexams.net/forums/ccnp/51752-bcmsn-strategies.html#post395961

But was about to go back and add this -- but now I don't have too

If you do the BSCI exam, you may as well get the TSHOOT books (both of them) since they are out now.

Looking at the relevant TSHOOT material as you study for the BSCI should actually help with the BSCI exam -- just don't get carried with learning any new ROUTE topics you don't need for the BSCI exam. Make a note of them and study them after passing BSCI.

I say BSCI. You have fourth months until the deadline, if you really study hard you can make it in time. That way all you have to do is TSHOOT. But, if you don't like the time constraint then just do ROUTE. BSCI is A LOT harder than the BCMSN, A LOT harder. But it is passable, I studied for about 2 1/2 months and passed on my 2nd attempt. Failed the first.
