Do The CCIE Test Questions Need An Overhaul
Terry Slattery did a blog post in May 2008 with a suggestion to Cisco about their test question database. He had just passed his CCIE recertification written test and had used the preparation tools offered by NetMaster Class (Bruce Caslow, #3139 and Val Pavlichenko, #3765). He continued to see a high incidence of repeat questions on the Cisco written test.

Either way you look at it Microsoft Data Center management did not follow standards or best practices in this failure. In which case it makes me wonder more about the outsourcing of corporate data much less personal data.

Very right
i had to reappear in a written test, failed first time because of ill-prep, and jeese the questions were as exactly as the first try. I was wondering what to do with that so am not going to be labelled as a dumper!!!i cannot understand why such a big company is doing such a little for such a big cert.
re. Do The CCIE Test Questions.....
Cisco needs to pay attention. I am also a CCIE of 10 + years. The R&S questions in the year 2000 recert test were directly related to design and protocol knowledge. Minutiae and subjectivity has crept into the exam over the years. Crafty, test question wordsmithing is executed by professionals for whom the test language is a second or third language. Sweating through ambiguous test questions is an experience that Cisco should be obliged to avoid on behalf of their CCIEs. Change the nature of the test, Cisco. It may cost a bit of money and time, but we CCIEs have all invested in your future, along with ours.
