Should I Submit the Self Study Form Now or Wait?

I just started studying for the CEH and I'm not sure when I'll be ready. Should I submit it now or wait till I'm ready to take the test?

I would wait until you are around 30 days or so from being ready, since it might take a week or two to finish the application process and verification. There is a time expiration on your approval and the EC-Council website states the policy.

Will do. Thanks!

They want you to put down that you self studied with their material. Otherwise, I'm not totally sure if they will approve the application. The best way to get approved is have them contact your supervisor if you have security experience.

They don't ask what you self study with...I passed using the AIO. Part of the process is they send an email to your supervisor asking to verify your experience. I think in total the process took a week or two.

There are two different paths, self-study, or have someone vouch for you, when I applied anyway, if i'm not mistaken.

The actual self study option, aka courseware option around $800...both require two years and an application with verified experience.

The iLearn or whatever and in person classes waive the experience requirement but start at like $1,700.
