Passed GCIH

Passed with an 86%! Not as high as I wanted but happy I got through it. This test was challenging, though I felt the practice tests were harder than the real deal. I scored 79% on both my practice tests. Boss wants me to get another SANS course next year, but I'm torn between that and CISSP. Though I'd never be able to buy a SANS class on my own so I probably won't fight him too hard on it lol. Thank you all for your helpful knowledge and resources on the site. It's very helpful.

Congrats on the pass. CISSP is easily doable via self-study so definitely let them pay for another SANS class.

I second what @cyberguypr said... You can do CISSP with self-study material or a much cheaper course than SANS.

Congrats on the pass! If you decide to go for another SANS course in the future, which one would you think about taking?

Thank you all! I'm thinking I agree with you guys on the CISSP. While it would be nice to take an "official" course, there's no reason why I shouldn't be able to study on my own. I'm thinking for my role (which deals a lot with Vulnerability Management) the new Enterprise Vulnerability Assessor cert may be right up my alley for next year. I'm a Security Analyst with primary responsibilities of vulnerability management and EDR, among other things.
