CEH test questions. (version 3 or 4?)

dissolved

Well I'm scheduled to take the CEH this Friday. I purchased the EC Council book new off the web (not directly from EC council) and have read it in it's entirety.. I noticed it doesnt cover the additional modules (physical security and hacker methodolgies) that were recently added to the test. I also see that version 4 of the exam was released In April 2005, but version 3 will be offered until October 2005. How can I tell which one I signed up for? I dont want to be quizzed on modules I havent studied yet.

Any other pointers or advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

This doesn't answer your question, but which book did you buy?

The one from amazon.com. Preparing for ECO-350 I think it was called. Ordered it last month

/usr

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0972936211/qid=1122477677/sr=8-1/ref=pd_bbs_sbs_1/104-8511139-1427159?v=glance&s=books&n=507846

That one?

Is that the only book you're using? If not, are you using that as your primary guide?

yep, thats it.
Would you happen to know if there is any Novell stuff on the test? I emailed EC but they didnt give me a clear answer on which version of the test I'm taking. I understand version 4 has no novell, added module 22 and added physical security.. Did the test you took have novell?

thanks

edit: I called prometric and they dont know which version of the test it is either

Yes, the one I took had a Novell module.

If you're using that book as your primary study guide and have no prior experience with the tools and concepts outlined on EC-Council's site, I would seriously consider rescheduling.

I don't mean to discourage you, but I know the exam is expensive. That book doesn't even contain %20 of what you need to know to pass this exam. The bulk of the material for this exam is in the binders you get from EC-Council when you order the study guide.

Check out the CEH thread here.

Look at the first post. It contains a link to another thread, a link page, and the CEH information page. Check out all of that. Feel free to reply with any questions, I'll be sure to reply in case I can help out in any way.
