Preliminary score of 881.  Not a great score, but I'm not going to complain either.  I got caught off guard with a couple of DMVPN questions that I am pretty sure were not covered in the FLG or the Exam practice pack book.  There was at least one minutia question I didn't know and some badly written questions where you are not sure exactly what they are looking for.  Over all I'd say a typical Cisco exam.  But I passed.  I though I had bombed it because I finished with 30 minutes to go and I have always been down to the wire and rushing the last few.  My last question turned out to be a pretty long lab that I almost screwed the pooch on.  Glad I double checked my actual results against my expected ones.

One weird point though.  I did a show ver during the last simulation because I saw something I didn't expect (and I am pretty sure would not work that way in real life) and I got a result of fake version 12.2.  I thought this test was supposed to be on version 15.x?  That said, the output of show run matched what I should have seen in version 15.x.  But a setting that it said was turned on, was not functioning...  Hard to explain because I'm not sure how far into detail I can go without breaking the non-disclosure agreement, but that was what drove me to check my actual results and lead to me finding that I had missed something.

Yes, I did SWITCH first because that is what I work on day-to-day.  I'll do TSHOOT next month and I am not sure after that.  Either the design track or work through a wireshark book.  I've had "Practical Packet Analysis" on the shelf for a while.
