Getting ready for battle CCIE

| Hey Cisco gurus throughout the world . . .
I have prepared myself for battle with the 350-001 and have called to the Cisco battlefield and registered for this exam.
I still have a couple of weeks til I take it; but I wanted to solicit advice from anyone who has taken this recently.
I am not looking for specifics or for anyone to break the NDA; just maybe study advice.
I have read a large portion of the books on the reading list, Jeff DOyle, Douglas Comer, Radia Perlman + re-read my CCNP books, been all over CCO, and now I am into the Anthony Bruno book.
I am using the BOSON#3, which are really awesome ( tough ) questions with explainations and links to cisco's site for each one.
I have even used some CIMS to see how the configs go in ~ most of the stuff at my job is Layer 2.
Anywayz . . .Anything anyone can tell me as far as last minute studyin' tips would be kick butt !!!!
Thank you in advance !

| just go over your material again and again
until it makes you sick.
then go over what you hate the most ,
because that is what will cost you.
then do the boson over and over.
then retake your boson only with the incorrect answers.
then run out your front door like sponge bob yelling i'm ready i'm ready i'm ready !!!!!!!!!
just my 2c | |

| Jeff Doyle is good reading. Read it a couple of times. | |

| Thanks for the advice from both of you. The repetition factor I think is key . . .
I have read that the more you repeat something, it actual builds little nural highways in the brain, the more you repeat it, the bigger the highway gets.
Along the same lines, I've read studies that a healthier body and brain actually have better recall; and that the web in the brain is composed mostly of water and that water actually helps the electrical nural transmitters in the brain relay the signals ( i.e. . the cars on the highway ) and that drinking lots of water and keeping the body hydrated actually improves memorization and recall.
Hey . . . every little bit helps. 
Thanks for the great advice, I think of it every time I see SPunge Bob !!
PEACE!

| My neural highways are more like muddy back roads.
My old written exam just expired with no lab attempts made so I have to retake written...oh joy.
