Taking TSHOOT today at 3:45....

To be honest, I got the TSHOOT FLG, but after flipping through it, I put it down and went back to using my Boson Ex-Sim Max TSHOOT prep engine..

Given the massive concentration on the actual trouble tickets in the exam, I just didn't feel it was worth the time given my overall comfort level with troubleshooting methodology.

Given that, however.. I have found the Ex-Sim Max engine very helpful, and fun, to boot! I don't remember who suggested it, but frankly, I think it will easily get you 95% of the way towards getting a 1000 on the exam.

I have found myself getting MUCH faster at identifying root cause, narrowing down issue to which device pair is causing the issue, and knowing which commands to use to verify the issue. Highly recommended, and only $99.00-$100.00. (Depending if you have previously purchased Boson software.)

Hopefully around 6PM or so, I will have my CCNP!!

I got in to the testing center a couple hours early so I could get back home prior to the debates..

Passed TSHOOT with a 986/1000.. I am pretty sure I missed one of the multiple choice questions, but felt pretty confident on the actual Trouble Tickets...

As I said, I used Boson Ex-Sim Max, and felt it adequately prepared me, but I did encounter a few problems that took me by surprise.. All in all, I thought it was a very fair assessment of a CCNP's ability to quickly work through common problems in a real world environment..

Yahoo! I am officially a CCNP!

I think I might work on either CCNA:Wireless or CCNA:Security now..

Excellent work!!! Congratulations!

MrBrian

Congrats on your CCNP pogue!!!

Nice work!! Might I suggest CCNA: Security, it's a fun one. Wireless sounds awful, but that's just me.

I think I took the ROUTE either in February or March, and took the SWITCH last week.. All in all, about 8 months of solid work on it, plus another 3 or 4 months of somewhat lackadaisical study/labbing..
