Good and Bad news about the exam today

Good news....I passed with a 936

Bad news....I completely brain farted on a sim, and forgot how to apply something. The sim took me 7 minutes to find the information because I DIDN'T scroll down in the window on top tp get the information. After I found that, it only took me a few minutes to configure the sim for what it needed minus one command. And I brain farted. After the 15 minute mark on the sim, I said screw it, I'll save the time for later.

Then, a few questions later, just to mock me, the proper syntax was in the question. Grah. That would have in theory jumped me past 950, which was my goal.

I know, a pass is a pass, but still.....I'm sure a few of you could relate. It's the perfectionist in me.

The breakdown:

Planning and Designing - 83%
Implementation and operation - 100%
Troubleshooting - 88%
Technology - 92%

Thanks to everyone who helped on the forum, either posting questions, or answers, as both helped.

Aww man, congrats and sweet score!!

I must admit, I'm hard on myself too, so I would have probably felt the same way....but hey, you did it man!!

What's next? CCNP?

Hey thats the same score I got. But damn dude, you got in the top 10%, you can't ask for anything better than that. I mean it is a tuff test. I know exactly what you mean with the scroll bars, IF I HADN'T WATCHED THOSE VIDEOS ON THE CISCO WEBSITE, I think I may have missed those scroll bars myself. caps are for emphasis for anyone else nearing the day.

great job!

Looks like you did just fine to me, 936 is a great score. Congrats!

I think next is either CCNP or MCSE. What I'm doing at work is a giant cluster, where we do networking, server, Nortel pbx, etc, etc, and I'm thinking that MCSE will help with that. Then we'll goto CCNP. Again, we'll see come next semester in school, but I'm thinking go with what will help with work first...afterall, that usually yields to a higher payscale:)

There's a mob of people who failed with an 847 who have no sympathy for you

Yeah, I can't be too angry, but it's the personal achievement thing there....

Could not agree more with that quote

That's a great score in my opinion and for you to miss part of a SIM and still achieve such a high score really means you knew your stuff. Congrats on the pass and well done!
