CEH Pass 03/27/17
I just passed the CEHv9 Exam.
The exam took me about 1 hour and 45 minutes. I finished the exam at about 1 hour, the rest of the time was used just reviewing.
This exam was required for my M.S. Cybersecurity and Information Assurance at WGU.
Materials I used:
- Matt Walker's AIO
- CBT Nuggets CEH by Keith Barker - Watched all videos. Highly recommend this series.
- BOSON Exam Simulator - Definitely use these. They are way harder than the real exam and prepare you well
- Also ran through some of the official EC council labs since they were provided by university. I would recommend labs 3 & 4: Scanning and Enumeration.
- Darril Gibson's Security+ - I reviewed this book and I would say in total honesty about 60% of the exam was the same material lol.
If you have the Security+, this exam is not much harder just know NMAP for sure and other pen testing tools.
- I also created this quizlet that might be useful for anyone else:

If you guys have any questions, feel free to ask.
Good luck!
