[j-nsp] JNCIE-SP question

[Paul Stewart]

I think it varies with your job experience … if you are already working on complex MPLS networks for example then that’s a lot different from only having labs and less actual experience.

I spent a week preparing for JNCIA-JUNOS as already, at that time had some experience.  For JNCIS-SP I took some classroom courses and at the end of all them I wrote on the Friday afternoon (each evening of the course I studied 3-4 hours however). JNCIP-SP etc… 

I’m not remotely suggesting that writing these exams is easy .. simply put, they are not.  In my situation I was very fortunate to have a lot of hands on experience combined with classroom training that in my opinion was well done.

Just my two cents worth ….

    I spent 2 hours a day reading and 8 hours of lab (sometimes more) on
    weekends for about a year and a half. All that time I put into it paid off
    as I passed on my first attempt. With that being said I paid out of pocket
    for everything and really didn't want to waste the money on a failed
    attempt.
