many questions require multiple answers Therefore, you need to read each question carefully to determine how many answers are necessary or possible and to look for additional hints or instructions when selecting answers Such instructions often occur in brackets immediately following the question itself (as they for all multiple-choice, multiple-answer questions) Unfortunately, some questions not have any right answers and you’re forced to find the “most correct” choice Picking Proper Answers Obviously, the only way to pass any exam is to select enough of the right answers to obtain a passing score However, Cisco’s exams are not standardized like the SAT and GRE exams; they’re far more diabolical and convoluted In some cases, questions are strangely worded, and deciphering them can be a real challenge In those cases, you may need to rely on answer-elimination skills Almost always, at least one answer out of the possible choices for a question can be eliminated immediately because it matches one of these conditions: ➤ The answer does not apply to the situation ➤ The answer describes a nonexistent issue, an invalid option, or an imaginary state After you eliminate all answers that are obviously wrong, you can apply your retained knowledge to eliminate further answers Look for items that sound correct but refer to actions, commands, or features that are not present or not available in the situation that the question describes If you’re still faced with a blind guess among two or more potentially correct answers, reread the question Try to picture how each of the possible remaining answers would alter the situation Be especially sensitive to terminology; sometimes the choice of words (“remove” instead of “disable”) can make the difference between a right answer and a wrong one Sample Test ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ Only when you’ve exhausted your ability to eliminate answers, but remain unclear about which of the remaining possibilities is correct, should you guess at an answer An unanswered question offers you no points, but guessing gives you at least some chance of getting a question right; just don’t be too hasty when making a blind guess Because you’re taking a fixed-length test, you can wait until the last round of reviewing marked questions (just as you’re about to run out of time or out of unanswered questions) before you start making guesses Guessing should be your technique of last resort Decoding Ambiguity Cisco exams have a reputation for including questions that can be difficult to interpret, confusing, or ambiguous In our experience with numerous exams, we consider this reputation to be completely justified The Cisco exams are tough, and they’re deliberately made that way The only way to beat Cisco at its own game is to be prepared You’ll discover that many exam questions test your knowledge of things that are not directly related to the issue that a question raises This means that the answers you must choose from—even incorrect ones—are just as much a part of the skill assessment as the question itself If you don’t know something about most aspects of CCIE Routing and Switching written exam, you might not be able to eliminate obviously wrong answers because they relate to a different area of CCIE Routing and Switching written exam than the area the question at hand is addressing In other words, the more you know about the Cisco IOS and troubleshooting Cisco internetworks, the easier it will be for you to tell a right answer from a wrong one Questions often give away their answers, but you have to be Sherlock Holmes to see the clues Often, subtle hints appear in the question text in such a way that they seem almost irrelevant to the situation You must realize that each question is a test unto itself and that you need to inspect and successfully navigate each question to pass the exam Look for small clues, such as access-list modifications, problem isolation specifics (such as which layers of the OSI model are not functioning correctly), and invalid Cisco IOS commands Little things like these can point at the right answer if properly understood; if missed, they can leave you facing a blind guess Another common difficulty with certification exams is vocabulary Be sure to brush up on the key terms presented at the beginning of each chapter You may also want to read through the glossary at the end of this book the day before you take the test Chapter 11 ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ Working Within the Framework The test questions appear in random order, and many elements or issues that receive mention in one question may also crop up in other questions It’s not uncommon to find that an incorrect answer to one question is the correct answer to another question, or vice versa Take the time to read every answer to each question, even if you recognize the correct answer to a question immediately Because you’re taking a fixed-length test, you can revisit any question as many times as you like If you’re uncertain of the answer to a question, check the box that’s provided to mark it for easy return later on You should also mark questions you think may offer information that you can use to answer other questions We usually mark somewhere between 25 and 50 percent of the questions on exams we’ve taken The testing software is designed to let you mark every question if you choose; use this framework to your advantage Everything you’ll want to see again should be marked; the testing software can then help you return to marked questions quickly and easily We strongly recommend that you first read through the entire test quickly, before getting caught up in answering individual questions This will help to jog your memory as you review the potential answers and can help identify questions that you want to mark for easy access to their contents It will also let you identify and mark the really tricky questions for easy return as well The key is to make a quick pass over the territory to begin with so that you know what you’re up against Then you can survey that territory more thoroughly on a second pass as you begin to answer all questions systematically and consistently Deciding What to Memorize The amount of memorization you must undertake for an exam depends on how well you remember what you’ve read and how well you know the Cisco IOS by heart The tests will stretch your recollection of the router’s commands and functions If you work your way through this book while sitting at a Cisco router (actually, you may need a group of routers) and try to manipulate this environment’s features and functions as they’re discussed throughout the book, you should have little or no difficulty mastering this material Also, don’t forget that The Cram Sheet at the front of the book is designed to capture the material that’s most important to memorize; use this to guide your studies as well Sample Test ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ Preparing for the Test The best way to prepare for the test—after you’ve studied—is to take at least one practice exam We’ve included one here in this chapter for that reason; the test questions are located in the pages that follow (and unlike the preceding chapters in this book, the answers don’t follow the questions immediately; you’ll have to flip to Chapter 12 to review the answers separately) Give yourself 120 minutes to take the exam, keep yourself on the honor system, and don’t look at earlier text in the book or jump ahead to the answer key When your time is up or you’ve finished the questions, you can check your work in Chapter 12 Pay special attention to the explanations for the incorrect answers; these can also help to reinforce your knowledge of the material Knowing how to recognize correct answers is good, but understanding why incorrect answers are wrong can be equally valuable Taking the Test The night before you’re going to take the exam, you should feel as if you are almost bursting with knowledge and can barely wait to sit for the examination If you’ve reached this readiness level, you’re prepared to take the examination On exam-day eve, you should relax and spend an hour maximum on the test materials Go over The Cram Sheet as well as your own study notes Don’t sit up all night studying and worrying—if you want to your best, you have to feel refreshed Have a good meal, scan your study materials, and then get a good night’s sleep On the day of the exam, eat a well-balanced breakfast and briefly review The Cram Sheet and your study notes Ensure that you arrive at the testing center at least one hour before your scheduled time Then, find a nice quiet corner to relax and mull over the main exam subjects Once you’re sitting in front of the testing computer, there’s nothing more you can to increase your knowledge or preparation Take a deep breath, stretch, and start reading that first question There’s no need to rush; you have plenty of time to complete each question and to return to those questions that you skip or mark for return Both easy and difficult questions are intermixed throughout the test in random order Don’t cheat yourself by spending too much time on a hard question early on in the test, thereby depriving yourself of the time you need to answer the questions at the end of the test On a fixed-length test, you can read through the entire test and, before returning to marked questions for a second visit, figure out how much time you’ve got per Chapter 11 ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ question As you answer each question, remove its mark Continue to review the remaining marked questions until you run out of time or you complete the test After you complete the exam, your test will be scored immediately A few moments after you finish, the computer will indicate whether you’ve passed or failed You Passed! Passing the CCIE Routing and Switching exam means that you’re ready to take the lab examination Within 48 to 72 hours, Cisco will be notified of your result, so there is no need to fax your result as was required previously To set a lab examination date, simply contact your local CCIE lab administrator The lab examination is popular, and you might have to wait a month or more for an opening Make sure you agree to a testing date that you feel comfortable with and leave yourself plenty of time to study for the rigorous lab examination After passing the written test, you have one full year to pass the lab examination, so, if necessary, you could study for a few months before taking the lab exam You Failed If you fail the CCIE Routing and Switching written exam, don’t worry about the result While the test is fresh in your mind, jot down problem areas in a notepad (the sooner you make notes for yourself the better) Try to remember questions you felt less comfortable with and study that area before taking the exam again The CCIE written exam is not an easy exam to pass In fact, this examination ranks among the toughest networking examinations in today’s certification market If you really want to be a CCIE, a first-attempt failure should not discourage you too much In fact, a failed attempt should encourage you to invest in some serious study time so that you’ll be able to pass the examination on your next attempt A number of candidates have noted that the second attempt is much easier than the first Further, keep in mind that the reason Cisco Systems makes the written examination hard is to ensure that you are fully prepared for the challenging lab examination That’s it for pointers Here are some frequently asked questions about the written examination and some bonus FAQs on the lab examination Frequently Asked Questions about the CCIE R/S Examination This section answers some common questions regarding the written and lab portions of the CCIE Routing and Switching examination These frequently asked questions will help dispel the confusion surrounding this exam We will begin by discussing the written examination Sample Test ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ Written Examination FAQ How many questions are on the CCIE R/S written examination? There are 100 questions All questions are multiple choice Some questions require a single answer, while other questions require more than one answer to earn a point What is a passing score? Cisco no longer publishes a set passing score for the written examination Instead, Cisco will supply you with a pass or fail grade The actual passing score (a percentage) is based on a statistical analysis system that checks the scores of all candidates over three months and then adjusts the score needed to pass accordingly For example, the passing score for one candidate maybe 70 percent, but it may be 75 percent for another candidate, depending on what results candidates are attaining After completing a short survey prior to the examination, you will be notified of the score you need to gain a passing grade For more information, see: www.cisco.com/warp/public/625/ccie/ exam_preparation/written.html#6 Can I change an answer after completing the examination? Yes, as long as time remains, you can return to any question How long is the examination? The exam is hours (120 minutes) long Make sure you use your time wisely— you want to have an opportunity to answer as many questions as possible If you find you are spending too long on a single question, move on If time permits, you can return the difficult questions later What happens when I finish the examination? The computer scores your test within minutes and indicates whether you passed or failed You will receive a printed score sheet with a grade for the entire exam and a percentage score for each of the 11 topics If you fail, you must wait at least 24 hours before retaking the exam Can I use the Windows calculator during the exam? No You are not permitted to use any Windows tools You are supplied with a pencil and some white paper or an erasable sheet How many times can I retake the written examination? You can retake the exam as many times as you like Chapter 11 ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ What I after I pass the written exam? You not need to fax your test results to your nearest CCIE lab administrator Simply wait 48 to 72 hours before calling to schedule the date for your lab examination Assuming that you have passed the written test, Cisco will have this information within two to three days Where can I find further information about the CCIE R/S exam? Cisco provides additional FAQs online at www.cisco.com/warp/customer/ 625/ccie/ccie_program/faqs.html Lab Examination FAQ How many questions are on the CCIE lab examination? There are three main sections The first lab section is worth 45 points toward your passing score of 80 points The second section is worth 30 points, and the final troubleshooting lab is worth 25 points The maximum number of points is 100 What is a passing score? The minimum passing score is 80 percent for all candidates Can I change an answer after completing the examination? After the lab proctor marks your exam, you cannot change any answers Further, you can only progress to the next section if you score the minimum requirement in each section Specifically, you must score at least 30 points on the first day, and you must have a total of 55 points before you can progress to the final troubleshooting lab You should try to score as close to 100 percent on the first day to give yourself the best shot at passing the second day Every mark in the CCIE lab is difficult, so the more you gain on the first day the better position you will be to pass on the second day How long is the lab examination? The examination is two full days What happens after I finish the examination? The lab proctor will score your examination, and you will be told whether you have attained the minimum passing score You will not be told your exact score The CCIE program no longer provides candidates with passing or failing scores Can I use the Windows calculator during the exam?
