I was accepted also to the program! I picked the December 28th cohort as well. Really looking forward to this.
I'm also in the Dec. cohort.
Cisco Press's deal of the week this week (eBook Deal of the Week | Cisco Press) is the Official Cert Guide, Premium Edition (ebook + practice test) for SECOPS 210-255. It's $25 instead of $50. I bought it a few minutes ago so I haven't had the chance to look over it yet, but for half price, I figured it was worth a shot. On Amazon, the OCG alone is $41 for hardocover and $31 for the ebook.
I did the test on Friday.
I didnt notice a timer so now im paranoid i went over.
I did the test during my lunch at work took my time. When i got close to the end i looked for a timer and didnt see one. I figured i was 5 mins away from 45 min limit so i did the last dozen or so questions quickly.
Scored almost 90% thought i would get an email today so now im paranoid i went over or something.
Anyone go over the time limit?
I looked for a timer and couldn't find it either. I was wondering if the bar on the bottom was the timer, but not sure.Quote:

I received the Step 3 notification at noon.
Thinking I'm going to pick a later cohort.
I see the options in step 3 are:
Cohort 5 (Start Date 12/28/17 - End Date 4/28/18
Cohort 6 (Start Date 04/02/18 - End Date 08/02/18
Cohort 7 (Start Date 07/06/18 - End Date 11/06/18
Quick question for those who already took the exams ... what's the voucher's expiring date? ... And do I have to actually take the exams during that 4 months window or just schedule the tests (and "consume" the vouchers)?
Thanks!
Got the email for the step 2 per-qualification exam early morning and took the exam as soon as I woke up. Skipped 2 questions accidentally or the mouse click didn't take. Still managed to pass it and now waiting for the 3rd email this Thursday. hoping I get selected also.
I start in Cohort 5 December 28th looking forward to it and getting this done and dusted by April cant turn down anything free and relevant to your role
It's a great opportunity that will definitely help lots of people.Quote:

Depends how quick you like to finish course. I spend few hours per day and completed in few weeks. You have 90 days so around 1 or 2 hrs per day should be fineQuote:
