failed my first attemp this month..

Hi all,

After one year of hard study, I failed my first attemp...

The lab day was very difficult, the stress was a big factor...

Before the lab, we waited half hour, on the hall of Cisco at Bruxelles, nobody spoke...

When the lab started, I lost 20 mns to decrease my stress and I didn't have time to finish the first part (troobleshouting),solved 8 tickets, but just 7 validated (8 for pass),

For the Config part, It was also a little to short for pass,

It remains for me to continue studying,

I already booked for second shot on february, I hope this time is the good ....

Sorry to hear that man. I know you've studied very hard. Second time will be the charm for you.

Never mind Daniel. Most people fail first attempt. You put in 1255 lab hours in one year, more than I have amassed in 4.5 years which only serves to illustrate how tough this track is. Get it next time.

You'll get it next time! Good luck!

Yes,

I hope the second time will be the good,

I have more two months to working my weaknesses,

And the second time, I think that stress will be lower that first time....

Hard luck man. Im amazed at your studiy hours, my hat goes off to you. Dont be downbeat about it though, theres a reason this qualification is highly regarded as it is! good back and slay it.

Best of luck to you man! were behind you all the way!

Take a short break, hone in on any weaknesses and then go back and slay that thing!

I already took a small break (one week),

Now, I restart studying and I have two months to working my weaknesses...before the next attemp....

Hey Daniel... you got a good look at the lab. It's an expensive sneak peek, but if you were that close on your first try, imagine how well you'll do the next. And unquestionably the stress will be dramatically reduced.

All the best in your prep... and bonne chance in february.
