My Experience -
I only bought the CEH-Practical exam Voucher (It is not necessary to take EC-Council’s
exam preparation bundle). If you take the preparation bundle it will include ilabs where
you can learn and practice different Ethical hacking methods & techniques. Apart from
that you also get an E-Book for studying. My suggestion is, If you don’t want to spend
more money then just buy the exam voucher because all the content which you need for
the preparation of the exam you can get it on YouTube or Google. So, after buying exam
voucher I got my aspen dashboard activation code within 2–3 days from EC-council
through a mail which also include the steps that you need to follow for activation of the
aspen dashboard. After that you will get the option to schedule the exam on aspen
dashboard, On clicking that you will be redirected to “examspecialists” website where you
need to create your account, then after creating the account login to the “examspecialists”
website where you will find the options for scheduling the session, Testing your
System/Equipment. Remember one important point, You need to schedule your exam at
least 3 days before the day when you are planning to give the exam. There is no such
option where you can schedule your exam today and give the exam tomorrow. Once you
schedule your exam the timer will start on the “examspecialists” dashboard and the timer
will be at 0:0:0:0 after which you will be allowed to start the exam. After clicking on Start
the exam it will redirect you to the “gomeetings” website where you need to download
“gomeeting”. You need to give screen sharing, remote access, video and audio permissions
to the “gomeetings” software.Then you will get into a meeting where your proctor will
join you. If you are able to hear the proctor He/she will ask you to show your Government
id then he/she will tell you the exam rules and guidelines verbally as well on chat. They
will ask you to show the 360 degree view of your surroundings(make sure there is no
disturbance and any people in the room). After this the proctor will ask you to give remote
access of your machine and will enter the credential on aspen dashboard for launching
your exam. After all the procedures I was able to start my exam. In case the proctor didn’t
join the meeting you can contact the EC-council support team from the aspen dashboard,
they will guide you for the further process(which happened in my case). Apart from this it
was a good experience for me as both Windows & Parrot machines were working much
better than I expected which was positive for me. You are allowed to take a total of

15min’s break and for that you just need to drop a message to proctor in the chat, Once

they agree you can take the break and when you are ready to join again you can start the
exam. So I completed my exam in 4–5 hours of time then I told my proctor that I would
like to submit the exam. After completing the submission process I got my score. The
Proctor Congratulated me then guided me for downloading my certificate & the
transcript. Mentioning below all the contents, link’s or reference that will help you for
exam preparation.
