vek0001vek0001 Member Posts: 8 ■□□□□□□□□□
Hi All,

Just had a chat with EC-Council agent and they are saying that no more version number moving forward and it will be a general CEH.

They are asking us to buy the latest courseware if needed. Any inputs from any one? my exam is scheduled for Nov 1st week, icon_sad.gif

Very worried now. Please provide ur inputs.

    Why are you worried? This shouldn't affect your exam or your studies should it?

    The "no version number" story has been around for a while after they moved from v8 to v9, yet they decide to keep branding the training as "Certified Ethical Hacker (CEHv10) Course". Reason 1,385 why I hate this company.

    To CyberCop123's comment, if you know the material you have nothing to worry about. Every time changes are introduced they are minimal.

    I took the beta for the new exam awhile back so that I could get 80 CEUs. Nothing has changed, it's still the same terrible exam it was last version.

    Lol very true. You don't know true terror until you've spent 13+ hours in the exam getting no where.

    Although I have been procrastinating about taking the exam, I can't help but laugh at this thread. I really do need to stop so that I can focus my attention to other worthwhile exams - this year has been trash for me I haven't achieved any of my 2018 cert goals.

    I'm sure it's the same level of difficulty.  MC exam, etc.  The "non-version" thing is due to ANSI accreditation which requires them do continuous changes instead of versioning, despite ECC using version numbers for their training material which is pretty much junk.  I have a bunch of official ECC books and they're pretty much all just one huge PPT in dead tree format.

    Don't expect it to be harder or easier, just different questions.  You shouldn't be worried about it unless you're cheating.   :#

    The CEH has a whole different meaning for me after taking it and dealing with the EC-Council. Certified EC-Council Hater.

    LOL.  Allegedly, dealing with them may or may not leave much to be desired.  Will neither confirm nor deny.
