Lab Preparedness
About 10% of people pass on the first attempt. Josh Loveless, one of the guys who posted just a couple days ago about passing was one of those first attempt passes.
I think that Cisco proctors have better things to do than deliberately fail people. While the allure of the certification is nice, I think its complexity does that all by itself. ![]()
Best of luck! (make sure it’s fresh tinfoil. Used stuff doesn’t work as well)

Funny you ask. A while back I posted a similar question.
It is my opinion that Cisco deliberately fails people for two reasons:
1. Money - $1250 a person x dozens of candidates a day = mucho dinero. 2. It helps maintain the allure of the certification. If the test was easy people wouldn’t value it as much.
I personally know several brilliant people who have taken the test 2-3 times before they passed. How many people actually pass on their first try? Maybe ..1%?
Oh well - let me put my tin foil hat back on and study some more…
