Lab round one 21/6/2010

Posted: June 27, 2010 in Journey

Unfortunately I failed the lab last week. By my count I scored 2/4 on the OEQs and 73% on the lab.

The OEQs were not unfair, they were all realistic. One of them I didn’t know but that was my own fault, the other I made a minor mistake in answering but I should have got it.

The actual lab felt pretty easy, there are some obvious knowledge gaps in the subject of frame-relay / ISIS which is pretty much what cost me the exam (advanced frame-relay configuration not links not working). I finished the exam an hour or two ahead of time and went back through things. I think some of the points I lost where due to vague questions for which my answers were not what they were looking for.

I probably only lost about 12% from not knowing how to do stuff. They were all things I should have known but didn’t focus hard enough because I deemed them legacy and not important enough. I did really get all the hard stuff right with 100% across the MPLS/TE/BGP/VPN/Multicast questions.

All in all I think I could have beat it on the day and have rescheduled 9th August, until which I can fix up my weak spots!
