Got an 818/1000 - passing score was 825. Soooo close I can taste it... I feel like the exam I got was custom tailored to my weaknesses:
Configure, verify and troubleshoot a switch with VLANS and interswitch communications - 73%
Implement an IP addressing scheme and IP Services to meet network requirements in a medium-size Enterprise branch office network - 100%
Configure and troubleshoot basic operation and routing on Cisco devices - 67%
Implement, verify, and troubleshoot NAT and ACLs in a medium-size Enterprise branch office network - 50%
Implement and verify WAN links - 83%
I had a bunch of switching questions early on (oh RSTP, I hate you), and ended up spending way too much time on the first 15 or so questions - including a sim that for some reason froze my brain (and it was an extremely easy one
).. In the end I had about 5 minutes left to do that last 8 questions. So naturally, I get a testlet (i think thats what they're called? they give you a topology and sometimes console to use show commands to answer questions) and then the very last question, with about 30s left, was a drag and drop..In full on panic mode i was able to get three of them matched up but ran out of time on the last two (ended up just dragging whatever i could click in). So I was probably one or two questions from passing.
The worst part is WGU probably won't let me take it again for at least another two weeks. Anxiety is going to freaking kill me.
Going to take a day or two off and then get back on it. I expect to get 900+ next time around. I won't run out of time and I damn sure won't miss another STP question.
