Hi everyone,

I just got the email that I FINALLY passed the OSCP exam. For those who have been member of this forum for a while, you may remember that I tried very, very hard 2 years ago, getting 60% twice! (see http://www.ethicalhacker.net/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,54/topic,6315.0/).

I ended up doing GPEN, CISSP and GWAPT before giving OSCP another try. But this time, I was better prepared and it showed in the exam.

Before someone ask me the question, next certs: OSCE (which I started 2 years ago, but without trying the exam) and maybe CCNA (I want to get better with networks).

So at last, I did it!!  Grin

Congratulations, way to stick with it and see it through! Cool

Edit: Since you already answered my standard, generic follow-up question, um... what's on the menu for your celebratory dinner and drinks?

Thanks everyone!!!  Grin

Something that's funny: Since I knew exactly this time what I was getting myself into, I was so prepared mentally that I don't feel especially tired or exhausted (I mean, after two good nights of sleep).

I already started reading in "The Shellcoder's Handbook" yesterday. I am starting to study for OSCE tonight (first pass watching the videos).

BTW, I also stopped working on OSCE two years ago because after CISSP, I was totally brain dead. I --HATED-- studying for this exam!! I almost burn myself out. I ended up taking almost a full year off after CISSP...

But I am back now!

Anyone working on OSCE right now?  Grin
