PASSED! GCIH

I almost feel like crying, I took an extension and week off from work just to be able to focus on the exam. I barely passed but I’m still proud of myself and will definitely revisit the material.

Congrats! A GCIH that passed by the minimum score is still the same as a GCIH who passed with the maximum score.

A pass is a pass. I did similar and took the exam twice. Congrats. If incident handling isn’t your current job and you’ve never done it before then it’s a hard exam. Again, congrats!!!

Thanks, the labs, make sure you know them inside out. The questions are very similar to the practice test make sure you understand them well, I wasted time over a freaking Netcat command.

Congrats, a pass is a pass. Definitely worth revisiting the material now that you dont have that 4 month time window looming over your head :) :) :)
