| Whooah - good intention for New Year's Resolution. Do you think you'll stick with it Go on be honest.
Go on dood and good luck !
Don't forget to come back and tell us how you got on.
I bet you'll be as sick as a parrot if you're going to spend 4 hours of your free time every day. | |

| better add either netmaster or cyscoexpert
to that list unless you're going to try the
lab 3 times in that 9 months | |

| I agree with Darthface without diagram labs to study with you are going into the hands on portion blind-fold and will most likely fail. You need at least a minimum of 100 hrs behind 4-8 routers/switches testing and configuring different topologies to get a feel for what its like. I am schedule for the lab portion in RTP on May 28,2003 and hopefully I will earn my number on the first try. I will post my method of on how to pass the one-day lab as well. So look forward to my posting in the coming months. See ya in the LAB. | |

| i'd also add getting on groupstudy's ccie lab list and you'll get a real feel for how people are passing the lab.
people are rushing into it and passing on
3rd and fourth attempts.
good luck lcooper
i have to try by 6/12/03 or retake the written. | |

I spend 3-4 hours a day after work studying. I've finally quit fighting it, I am a geek. | |

No, that's not true. It's more like 9 months.

I just checked, you can get San Jose through til feb and after that not until June.
After that it's pretty free. | |

i have to attempt by 6/03 or re-take written | |

| Hi Darthfeces,
Here's the link.

I had a quick look, seat available at RTP Jan, Feb and then June just like San Jose.
Why don't you just book a date, you can cancel it at no cost upto one month before - probably explaining all the Jan/Feb dates. | |

| Hello !
Anybody know how long in advance you have to book the CCIE Security lab exam ?

| It depends on where you want to book it. I think the wait is generally shorter than R&S, but there are fewer places you can take it at. | |

It was about 5 or 6 months last I looked. If you're ready, you can almost always find dates about 32 days out as people cancel them. My date on 1/30 may still be open...
