SWITCH has been dominated - 967/1000

Took three months of study, two books, videos and a lovely babylab to nail it :)

When I went into the testing center today, the first two workstations I was on failed in mid-test and I kept thinking I was going to fail because of computer error or because it didn't take my answers! Thankfully, after an hour of missteps on the center's part, I found a working computer and nailed the exam

Onto Route!

    Yes, I am a criminal. My crime is that of curiosity. My crime is that of judging people by what they say and think, not what they look like. My crime is that of outsmarting you, something that you will never forgive me for.

    Thanks for all the support, guys! I'm pretty excited to start Route but I'm sure it's going to take me awhile to get through considering the size of the books and material.

    My victory over Switch was short lived yesterday. I immediately posted on here and then ran to work to configure 6 4510s, 2 6509s, and 2 ASRs and test new fiber on three floors. 10 hours later, I got home and couldn't even look at another Cisco book until I slept. The life of a network engineer!

    P.S. The thumbnail is my thumbs up to the two Route books I plan on reading next...

    Route is a big one, but fun! The great thing is you can do it all virtually via GNS3 for labbing purposes.

    I too know how it feels to get beaten down by work in a day you literally do not have the mental effort to do anything Cisco related the rest of the night haha!

    So close to the perfect score, you have to retake simply not good enough.

    I'm kidding, well done great score and good luck with the Route exam.
