1  Ethical Hacking Discussions and Related Certifications / OSCP - Offensive Security Certified Professional / Re: OSCP in current state ? on: March 11, 2013, 03:47:13 AM
@xXxKrisxXx Thanks for answering most of my questions:) I read most of reviews I could find... because of them I decided to participate in course.

I already signed up for the course and Im refreshing my knowledge about assembly language and buffer overflow because I think I will have most problems with that...

Im starting 17th March and took 60 days lab time.

Keep thumbs for me Cheesy

Have you seen this review?:

We all learn differently and do so at different speeds. Also we all have different background experience and not everyone can put in the same about of time. Having now completed the course, I would say if you want to "just pass" the course and can put a good couple of hours in each day then you could get away with doing 30 days - at a push. However, if you want to take your time, learn it and (try to) "do it all", I would recommend 60+ days in the lab. I started off with 30 days, with the hope of cramming it all in as I could spend 8+ hours a day on it. In the end, it took me a solid 30 days in the labs (not including any of the exercises before the lab work), so I ended up extending it by 15 days. If I was to do it again, I'd opt for 60 days and pace myself better.

Yes I have read the review and that 60 hours is probably the best option for me right now because I dont want to be hasty if getting to know new things and polish up everything I know so far ...
It was good choice to ask questions here on forum Smiley

I forgot to mention that I can spend like 8 hours a day on that course that is one of factors...
Right now Im thinking about taking 60 days on labs... I think that should be enough, and maybe some additional time if something goes wrong...

One more question :

Is it better to take 1 month labs and if I need more time than buy additional time or it is better to take straight 3 months from the start?

Hi, Im new here as member.

Im IT Engineering student(23 y. old)... Im thinking about taking OSCP cert but have some questions/doubts... I read almost every review here on forum about course(sternone was very good review/journey) and still not sure so here are my questions and some story about my knowledge...

Started about 7 years ago in cracking/decrypting (before college), switched about 2 years ago to pentest web applications, Im writing paper on pentesting web app. as my graduation paper...
I have knowledge in linux/windows worked for some time as admin in small company...
At college learnt basics of ASM and programming ARM... Basics of C/C++, in free time I code in C#, python... for work I coded in php and javascript... okey so back on topic...
Read most of the books on metasploit,pentesting, watched and practiced metasploit course from security-tube...

1. Is there any measurement if Im good enough to take OSCP course ?
2. Can I start course every month or there is some period ( I read that 16th march is deadline in this month) ?
3. Is there any more knowledge that I need to have before taking course?
4. The certification itself is it good on today job market?
5. Please share general ideas etc. on what to do and if I should take this course..
