Narbik,
We are looking for a conceptual challenge from Cisco rather than a
know/don't know questions. I don't like to remember or to keep much
information in my mind. We have enough stuff to care about in life more just
being network engineers. It would make sense to allow us to access the DOC
CD during the Open-Ended questions Cisco. Then I wouldn't mind to challenge
us as much as they can. But this is not the case!
So to sum up I agree that Cisco have the right to chalenge people they way
they like but in an engineering and conceptual sense. Which is not the case
based on the feebdback of guys who have tried the exam.
Mahmoud.
