Just re-scheduled the ONT for Friday at Noon

Paul BozPaul Boz Member Posts: 2,620 ■■■■■■■■□□
I just re-scheduled the ONT after a month of beyond my control delay. I originally scheduled it for 4/21/08 but the testing center five minutes from my house closed down for good and I had to locate a new testing center 55 miles away. I was fine with that but I got laid off about a week later so I had to get that straightened out before I could sit the exam. That being said, Friday is the day. I figure that since I've had an entire month to review the stuff I shouldn't have any problems with it. Hopefully within 48 hours I will be a CCNP :)

    This is how my wife gets me ready on the day of tests:

    Home sliced bacon, cayenne pepper and pepperjack cheese eggs, and home made buttermilk biscuits.

    I'm heading out the door now... hopefully a CCNP in three hours :)

    Passed with a 1000/1000. I am now a CCNP :)

    I was expecting a perfect score because I originally had the exam scheduled for a month ago so I've been looking over the same stuff for about that long.

    Onward to the CCIE :)

    Congrats! Good luck on the CCIE!!

    I need to get back on the horse and finish up my CCNP. With my recent relocation and job change I haven't had much time for any study!

    Yah I got laid off about a month ago which was party why I had to reschedule it. It gave me plenty of time to study though, haha icon_lol.gif

    Schweet! Congrats on the pass, Paul, and let me just say that you're a bastard for blowing it out of the water like that. How am I supposed to show my face after I take the exam, and I get a "just barely" score? :P

    Seriously, though, that's a hell of a score. I'm sure that the CCIE written won't be a huge hurdle for you, and I'm sure you'll do extremely well on the lab as well. As we learned with MrD, bacon is the secret to CCIE-success. icon_lol.gif

    Dude bacon is seriously where it's at. It just hits the spot.

    Nice job Paul so when should we expect you to pass the written?
  • Paul BozPaul Boz Member Posts: 2,620 ■■■■■■■■□□
    I'm about half way through the blueprint and I've been pseudo-studying for it while taking the CCNP exams. I'm not going to take the written until I'm sure I can at least be competitive on the lab because what's the point? The written just starts a timer.

    Congrats man! Excellent score too. However, I think if I ate that kind of breakfast before an exam, I might fall asleep. icon_lol.gif

    Enjoy the Holiday! icon_wink.gif

    You know, I had the same urge when I finished reading The Hobbit.

    Nah I'm enjoying my vacation. The stimulus pack is paying for two more months of mortgage so I haven't even had to touch savings yet. I'm taking the time to study for the CCIE and work on my cooking skills :)
