CCIE Enterprise - How Long To Pass

Everyone is different, but here's a rough guide to how long will it take you to prepare for the CCIE Enterprise.

Your channel is the most detailed and useful for any ccie candidate. Thanks a lot!

About a month ago, I started the CCIE journey. Since starting my new job, I acquired some other vendor certs and even got the CCNP ENSLD (Design) certification back in May. What has been working for me may not work for everyone but I thought I would share.

Mon-Fri - 4am-7am (this varies based on whether I'm working from home or going to a customer site, may be more or less) I also try and squeeze in a few videos/labs during lunch at work.
Sat-Sun - 4am-7:45am (before my wife wakes up) 1pm-4:30pm (this is generally the slow time for us during the weekend)

I plan to take Narbik's course hopefully in the middle of November with hopes of taking the first attempt in the middle of December. I have this strange desire to be the youngest CCIE ever at my company (youngest guy was 26 when he got his CCIE in Collaboration nearly 10-15 years ago).

I just started my CCIE journey this 2024, your information on the CCIE is great. Thanks very much. .

That spreadsheet is exceptional. Great approach and organizational skills there. In regards to the Narbik bootcamp, I think what I'm going to do is first read the EI book by Narbik and do the EVE-NG workbook that was included PRIOR to doing his bootcamp. I need to really drive home the core principles and technologies PRIOR to his bootcamp. I didn't do enough work like this in my first 2 CCIE exam attempts. I Just need to lab, read, lab, read, lab, read.... put in the work.

Brill stuff great job some serious discipline required.

Great video. I hear stories from guys that passed the exam that 8 hours a day is the minimum to pass it in a year and it gets me mindblowed.

4 years, 2 failed attempts for the Junipers CCIE equivalent - JNCIE-SP. It's though sometimes, I have to do a breaks from time to time. At this point its like a routine for me. I will keep going until I will get those numbers :). Thanks for your videos, I find them very motivating. I kinda feel that everyone around me passed such expert exam but not me :) :P

2 minutes per page .. Thats crazy fast !!!!

Slightly off topic, but did you always have such good retention, or is this something you built up over time? If the later do you have any strategies/tips to share? I feel like when I'm reading a Cisco cert book and taking notes I'm basically re-writing it.

i got many questions about ccie
1 -in your perspective how many years you should be working as network engineer before taking ccie like how many years is enough iknow its different from person to person but give us a little hint
2 for its salary is it worth the expense when take ccie exam especially if you live in country which has no ccie exam lap so you have to fly to us or uae or india or whatever to take the exam and add to that visa, fly, hotel expense after all that cost is it worth to take it compared to work as ccnp

3- can you talk more about ccie exam lap i hear it 6 hours right
4 if i got my ccie isit easy to find a sponsorship in us
5 why are the most companies ask for ccie R&S not security or collaboration or DC

and sorry to bother you

In the spreadsheet, what are you referring to speficially with Book 1, 2 etc.

[bimatube]

That’s the most detail about this subject. But please stop saying is not possible to pass on the first attempt. If you say to yourself you gonna fail, so you gonna fail! It’s not just know the technology there’s other things between that you need to learn, psychology, time management, etc.

Some scam channel called SPOTO copied this video. They took like 10 sentences out of context and posted it in an AI voice-over video with a click bait title of “how to pass CCIE in 3 months”. You should look up SPOTO and then that title and click the first video. Absolutely disgusting that someone steals content from someone like you and adds a click bait title and then gets more subscribers than a hard working professional like yourself
