Man, that exam was no joke. Once I hit the last arrow button it said "Congrats you Passed" I thought it had said "Congrats you finished the exam" I thought I was dreaming, I still can't believe I passed. The simulations were killer. I read through the CompTIA Advanced Security Practitioner CAS-002 Cert guide (kindle version) by Abernathy & McMillan. The book was an easy read, and covered the basics, however I felt like my coursework at my university currently in cisco netacad networking class, digital forensics class, previously took wireless security, network security, cyber threats & detection, (cyber security/digital forensics), previous security+ studying, and studying for the CEH also helped a lot. I felt it was an equal combination of managerial and technical scenarios. I had to really make some educated guesses on a few questions, the ones I didn't know right away I flagged, including two of the simulations. The main reason I took this exam was to renew my Sec+ as well. I am waiting for the newest CEH books to come out before I take that exam, I have my voucher in hand and looking to take that in November/December. Thanks to all of you here at Techexams for your support and knowledge!

Congrats on the pass. I'm looking to take this exam as well next year to renew Security+ and to prepare for CISSP which I would like to pass in 2-3 years.
Good luck to you on CEH! -

Congrats!
Same here. I was taken aback by the simulations as well.The simulations were killer.
The good news is that you are almost ready for CISSP.
Just need to read up mainly managerial topics.
CISSP also gives you the full 75 points required for CASP 3-year renewal. -
