    This is a fun and amazing thread, with incredible motivation towards a greater good in oneself. This thread and all CCIE threads, instill in me a higher motivation to study harder and to obtain a higher knowledge. The best of luck to you, David. May the packets be with you!

    Tomorrow is the day.

    Arrived at hotel yesterday, it's great - I was worried about being near the flight path (near Heathrow, only the worlds busiest airport) but it's silent. In fact the noisiest thing in this room is the air conditioning unit cooling down after warming the room up all evening lol.

    Had a decent night sleep last night, will scope out Cisco location later and generally relax today.

    Bye bye for now

    Apparently so! He did PM me and say that he decided to just go for it - he was ready - so I'll see him tomorrow.

    Hopefully we can report two good news stories tomorrow!

    David, I've been reading your thread since when it got started and had my doubts if you were ever going to complete the journey due to life but you've done everything possible to prepare now. Now it's just a matter of having a good day at the lab. You can do it.

    Silver, I hope you bring back your numbers as well :)

    Yes I've had a read through as well and at times I just wasn't committed enough - no two words about it.

    Happy to report that despite waking up twice through the night, I have actually slept rather well indeed.

    I'm now sat waiting for doors opening at 8.

    Hope you two slam dunk the lab, hope you come back with good vibes about how you did! This is your moment of glory!!

    Well back at hotel now. Don't know what to say. I think I bombed two tickets in TS so I think my lab is a dud. (Definitely only partially fixed one of the tough ones, fixed another one but damn sure now I broke the restriction so it'll be 0 points) Got all the rest easily though.

    However, I factored this into my config section and I went after every single point and I think I did quite well.

    Waiting game now.

    Not necessarily. With the new scoring system you don't need as high of a score in each section as long as your total score is high enough. So if you config section was great, you're still in the game.
  • gorebrushgorebrush Member Posts: 2,743 ■■■■■■■□□□
    Yah but I figure I only got 66% in TS. I am in the lap of the scoring gods - because I know I tried my damndest to get as many points as I could in CFG.

    I am *that* close!!
