39 Days to go

Did Internetworkexpert mock lab 5 today. There was a notable difference in the difficult level compared to mock lab 2 and 3. It is rated as a 8, but its probably more of a 9 than a 8, the main reason for that is because there are many tasks that are dependant on another task or where one task brakes another. One or two of the tasks had clues in a later section, to bad I missed them. Im not sure about the score, Im expecting a low 50, I’ll be lucky if I get 60+, chances are slim, a 40 will be worrying. I finished with about 2.5 hours left, but at that point still had to go back to 4 tasks that I skipped which took another hour to complete. I think I did more damage than good in the last hour.  The security section broke the ipv6 section. I remember at a point thinking about it but telling myself that the ipv6 traffic wont be blocked by the ip access list, but the ipv6 was running over a ipv4 tunnel. Should’ve picked this up, this mistake could cost about 9 points. For the time being I’ll have to wait a whopping 111 hours for the results and then some more…

Still no reply from cisco regarding the lab date…
