there is a old saying you know..

PLAN THE WORK....WORK THE PLAN.

Ive never had any troubles with my projects using methodology and they extended to 17 million pound warship repairs. Yeah they have the ussual crack about them, emergent works etc..but its how u deal with change is how you cast success.

You should read my book.....i havent wrote it yet!

Congrats, I'm studying towards that looking at taking it in the middle of May. How'd you find the exam a collegue of mine who did the old written one didn't like th elook of the example papers I was working through. They've stopped the guesing with negative marks for incorreect answers. Barstewards I'll have to do some more work.

Any tips gratefuly recieved..

Top tip - read alot!! And have a go at any example test papers you can find - I used an MOD website.

Negative marking is no longer used.

You will probably find the first exam fairly easy - 60 minutes and lots of questions - multi choice answers (tick the right box) - closed book.

The final exam is 3 hours duration. You will probably find you need all this time. It is scenario based and consists of nine questions. But each question could have up to 4 parts. You have to select the correct answer from those give so it is multi choice based on a system called Blooms Taxonomy (google is your friend)...Open book, but you won't have much time to look at your book to be honest...working against the clock can put you in the position of rushing your answer - you need to think logically - you will have covered it somewhere in the course work - good luck!:grouphug:

That's known as a CCFA round my way - Cisco Certified F*** All :D The scary thing is, we can't even say "it were harder in my day" because nowadays it's actually harder. You can subnet IPv6 if you want, I'm not going to bother, all it takes is a CCIE written to requalify *everything* :D

Sorry for the derail - congrats Stingo :D Mine's a Stella :D
