As I said in my previous post, I’ve already booked my bootcamp with Narbik for April, in UK… One year as past since I passed my written which means that I’ve been preparing myself for the lab for a year now. Since a year as past, seems to me a good time to stop a little and analyze all the things that I’ve done so far!
Basically till now I’ve only used all the (EXCELLENT) products that I purchased from INE. From my experience I can tell you that their self products are great, with excellent quality!!! And now for those who are thinking… no I don’t have receive any kind of “incentive” to say good things about their products. I may sincerely recommend their products to everyone that would like to prepare for the lab exam.
Basically this is a list of what I’ve used so far:

To add to all this, I’ve also read here and there several chapters from TCP/IP Vol1 and Vol2, which I purchase from Cisco Press, as also several docs that I’ve uploaded to my Kindle, which most of the time I use to read on the bed at the end of the days! 
In the last days, I’ve done 9 mini labs and one 8h-lab from Cisco ASET! I’ ve also started to work on the preparation ebook for Narbik’s bootcamp.
So, my plan till the bootcamp is to finish all the Cisco ASET labs as also the prep ebook. I’d also like to revisited some chapters from the INE Vol1 workbook, such as Multicast and QoS.
After the bootcamp, and considering my plan to schedule the lab for the middle of August, I will have around 4 months, which I will use to work on 8h labs and some mini-labs for my (identified) weaknesses.
Cheers
