Passed GPEN 90%
Haven't seen anyone post on this for a while.
Took this class back in late February as part of work study. This class provides a real solid foundation for other classes. I wish I would have taken it sooner.
Practice tests and actual test had 75 questions and 7 labs. The labs were very similar to the ones from class.
Practice Test 1- 93%
Practice Test 2- 89%
Actual Test- 90%
Just an FYI to everyone, Prometric/PearsonVue which ever one GIAC requires has done an update to their testing software or the testing center I went to messed something up big time. The login/loading from the test screen was taking 30-45 mins to load the exam. I actually ended up sitting there waiting it out for 90 mins before the exam would load as we tried 3 different machines. They were turning people away that came later. After the exam loaded the performance was normal. I'm guessing they will get this sorted out but if you are taking a test in the next week or so I'd call my testing center to see if they are having issues. It was a disaster.
Up next will be the wonderful MGT 525/GCPM at SANS Network Security in Sept.
