Overall, the exam wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I used H2P for my CCNA, so I knew they were good, but I guess I thought this would be different. Don't mean to beat a dead horse here but just like everyone else has said, if you study each of the sections enough to where you're passing 90%+ of the questions, you'll be good on the exam.
I had lab 5, 6, and a new one that Nikisal already mentioned that involved redistribution between OSPF and EIGRP with a dual-homed setup. I can't remember exactly what the question is but it looked like we needed to configure a NSSA area and then tweak the metrics to prefer the link with the higher bandwidth. However, when I tried to configure the NSSA on the area under the router ospf config mode, it kept saying "invalid command." When I did a ? after area, nothing showed up, although the ? worked with everything else I tried. This was my 3rd question I got, so I skipped the question after 15 minutes of trying to work at it. I'd be curious what the solution was too.
Other than that, I had the EIGRP simlet that asks what routes would be preferred with the specified successor, etc. There were a few questions I came across that I hadn't seen before but looking at my score breakdown, I apparently got them correct as they were mostly BGP and ISIS questions, and I scored 100% on both of these sections.
Next stop: SWITCH.
