How I passed the CEHv10
The CEH certification stands for Certified Ethical Hacker. EC-Council distributes this certification. I was able to get certification while working on my master’s degree in cybersecurity at WGU. This certification and the training were included in my tuition.
Week 1, 2 and 3: I watched all of EC-Council’s CEH training videos as well as did all the labs.
Week 4: I created flashcards while reading the CEHv10 all in one guide.
Week 5: I watched the CEH Pluralsight course to get a different perspective than EC-Council’s training.
Week 6, and 7: I studied and took all practices test from Kaplan and EC-Council’s CyberQ assessments (this has been discontinued) until I was consistently getting 90% on the practice assessments.
Toughest section: Tools/Systems/Programs was the tough section for me.

Test day: I took this exam at home and it was proctored. I had to have all applications closed on my laptop and let the proctor see my whole room. It a total of 125 questions. I had a total of 4 hours to complete the test. The questions they were asking detailed information about various pen-testing tools. Some of the scenario questions were very lengthy. I had time to analyze all the questions I had marked for review. When I hit submit, I was glad that I passed the exam!
