Simulated Practical Exams

Full-length 20-challenge, 6-hour simulations that mimic the real CEH Practical: mixed challenge types in random order, each asking for a specific answer, with a separate answer key and a 14/20 pass line. Take one only after you've worked the drill packs — this is the dress rehearsal.

Setup: lab running + challenge-lab generated. Sit it in one timed block, no peeking at the key. Keep a notes file and screenshot each answer before submitting.

Exam Take when
Exam 01 After the drill packs — first full run
Exam 02 A week later — confirm speed under time

Rules (match the real thing)

  • 6 hours, 20 challenges (~18 min each). First pass fast, flag and skip stalls, second pass on flags.
  • Answer format is exact — a password, hash, version, FQDN, file's contents, or flag. Case and trailing characters matter.
  • Pass ≈ 14/20 (~70%) — confirm the official cut on the EC-Council Practical page.
  • Score honestly, then re-drill the domains you lost points in (drills/).

These are practice simulations built on your own lab — not real or leaked exam content. The Practical is performance-based, so there's nothing to "dump" anyway.
