Summary: So, So, Not Worth $100
Review: The contains only questions and Lab scenarios. The questions are ok, but the real value is from the labs. My gripe, though, is that the lab scenarios are so simple. No lab includes more than three routers. Each lab focuses on one or two specific subjects. I suppose that's ok to break each topic down. But, this is supposed to be a CCIE prep book. You've gotta have some more complex scenarios. Overall, the book is ok, but Bruce Caslow's book is much better for CCIE prep.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: A good review tool.
Review: This "book" is nothing of the sort. It is a collection of test questions and practice labs. The questions in general are not as specific as the questions on the real CCIE test. What this is, is a metric. The CD will test you and let you know where you need to study. The explanations of the answers are mostly good, but not in debth enough to stand as the only study tool you use. If you buy this book, use it as a measuring tool, not a study guide. By using this and studying Cisco's books, I passed the written on my first try. But then I also have 10 years of experience in the field.

I haven't tried the practice labs yet, but will post again after I do.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Waste of time and money
Review: This book is just waste of time and money. Like meny new books that claim CCIE level training. If you like to pass the CCIE written, read the Cisco press books and train on the hardware.

Summary: Needs More Work
Review: This book is missing a lot of the stuff that the lab is asking for. The qualification of the authors are questionable. One of them is not even CCIE. This book is TOO overpriced, comparing other CCIE reference books out there. This is vol. 1, I can't imagine anyone would be willing to spend another $100 on vol. 2. Personally, I rather buy other Cisco Press books.

Good luck on your CCIE!

Summary: Not a study guide
Review: This book is not a study guide; it is a sample test. The included software leaves much to be desired - video refresh bugs and "scrambles" the answers, interesting when one of the answers is "A and B"

For my money, I would rather go with a book that tells me something, rather than just a bunch of practice questions.

Summary: ccie prep.com's book
Review: This book is waste of money, there are only questions/answers. Not much explanation. Badly written.

Summary: Noth worth the money
Review: This book is way over-priced for the level of information it offers. Just from browsing through the lab scenarios, I've seen plenty of typos, errors, and misconfigurations. And worse the scenarios are so basic, it makes you wonder how they can get it wrong. As a CCIE, I don't think these simple labs will help at all for the real exam. If these guys would have concentrated on the book instead if writting about themselves and congratulating one another, this book would have been much better.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not the worse, but not great either
Review: This book, as with most of the CCIE books available today, has many errors. Even on the CD! For sure, this book will make you study harder to verify the author knows what he's talking about.
