I passed the CEH yesterday! I'm currently in the WGU Master's degree in Cyber Security right now and it's looking like I'm going to finish it in two terms but back to my original statement I passed it utilizing 95% skillset.com. I barely use the materials WGU gave me at all. I would totally recommend using skillset for this test and obtaining a 100% readiness score prior to testing. Now onto the CHFI.

    Nice, congrats! CHFI will be a breeze now, it was even easier than the CEH.

    LOL, I wanted to take the CHFI, but I did not think it was worth $600.

    Thank you all and I already put in to request the voucher so I will be taking that by the end of this week! Once I'm done with this degree I plan to aim for the CISSP but that's in a whole other league but one step at a time.

    I took it yesterday and I don't think it's worth $6.00.

    I have been toying with the idea of taking the CEH and CHFI exams and was wondering if their questions are truly similar to those that are on their site:

    If they are... Welp... I'm glad my company will pay for it but it'd be fun to at least knock out!

    Yes I can. I mainly used Skillset to study with. They have a readiness score so once I hit the 100% score I went and tested. I can honestly say I don't see how someone can fail if they use that resource. I also used the Boson Practice exam engine that WGU provided. This one worked very well. Finally, I used some of the material from the ASPEN EC official coursework as well. But like I said, Skillset is king! I only studied around 14 days.

    Didn't mean to post twice but I didn't see an option to edit my previous post. The questions are eerily similar to the actual exam. If you can answer all 50 of those, I'd say sign up for skillset and take their exam simulator and see where you stand. If you pass that I'd say you're good for the real exam.
