Passed CCIE Security Written!

in CCIE
I sat the CCIE written exam today, ended up with a 870 out of 820, very pleased!
For studying I watched/reviewed all of the IPexpert Security Written videos, went through INE's Advanced technologies video set (the 70 hour one) and I am also near the end of the Zero to Hero Security boot camp run by Narbik!
I was motivated to study and pass before 4.1 hit, though the emerging technologies intrigued me, I wasn't sure if I wanted to wait that long.
All in all, I do not like the old tech, thankfully there weren't a ton of older IPS questions. I ended up with an 80% or greater in every section except for security products, features, and management.
They also had some non-cisco related questions on there. Regulatory and Certification questions I saw more than I expected (don't want to go into great detail about the exam) but all in all, I'm ready to conquer the lab!
I'm taking Narbik's bootcamp in September so I'm hoping for a November lab date in San Jose.

Did you bypass the CCNP on your way to the written?

Does the 'zero to hero' prepare a CCNA(Sec) for CCIE(Sec)?
Thanks
The zero-to-hero won't take you completely there, but with some of the other training programs you can get there. They say it'll get you to around 80% to CCIE Security level, IPExpert and INE I think helped pushed me to that ~90% and reading some of the books around CCIE Security + work experience helped me pass.
