Below are some success stories from CCIE's — in their own words. — and MANY more are available HERE.
I passed the CCIE Security on October 6th, 2009 and now I am proud to be CCIE #25629.
My lab studying started last year and had a failure March, still for v2. Then I started to study for V3.
I used IPexpert workbooks and I’ve found them awesome!!! Read carefully every lab from both volume 1 and 2 and practice a lot… You will be good for the lab portion…For the OEQ, I recommend people reading all the examples, I mean, the explanation part why you are configuring it and be sure you are able to explain even with your own words... Ah, reading Q&A documents at Cisco site is also good for OEQ.
Finally, try to develop a strategy to solve the lab. Remember that 4 points for an “easy” (easy means that YOU know how to do it without looking for any documentation) question values the same that 4 points for a tough question…
To finish, I had scheduled my exam in August to be doing it in October when something nobody desires happened. I was almost good to go when I had the sad news that my mother had passed away. I almost quit the idea of doing the test, but I am sure she would be very happy if I passed it, as she was expecting me to do so…
The study materials from IPexpert played a very important role in my recent success on the CCIE Security lab. I used their practice labs in conjunction with their security rack rental service through proctorlabs.com. The difficulty of the labs scaled very well and challenged me every step of the way. I would recommend this combination to anyone preparing for the Security CCIE lab.
