Well I decided to split the exam into two, and passed the first a month or two ago. Time has passed and now I realize I scheduled it for Dec. 5th! That's coming awfully soon.... so here I am studying at work.
I got the Boson ExSim Max and the Book and plan on spending 20-30 hours over the next few days labbing/reading/answering questions. Hopefully that's enough! I'm hoping to get it in (and passed) before reviews this year - hence the rush.
Hopefully I work

I think I'm pretty good with STP/VLAN/IPv6/most other stuff. Really my weak link is routing, so I'll be brushing up on that. Funny thing is I do alot of that in my day to day, I just don't deal with screwy situations, only copy + paste route commands and configs. Eh - wish me luck?
I'll be more active on here after I pass this and get back on the MS track to finish my MCSE and upgrade to MCITP:EA, and I can lend a lot more there than I can in this Cisco forum, but thanks for the support!
