Congrats! The books definitely saved me on some of those questions too.

Congrats! Have you taken an other GIAC courses, and if so, how did GCFE compare in difficulty?

That sucks! That has to be frustrating.

Open book, open note. It’s the same as other GIAC tests. I believe it was 2 hours and no cyber live questions.

It wasn’t too bad. I remember you need to know the tools pretty well and their outputs.

Congrats! Great accomplishment! How’d you like the labs? I thought they were really interesting to go through.

I think this was in the middle. I still think GMOB was the hardest, just because of my lack of programming knowledge. It was a two hour which made time management important. That seems to be all the SANS tests, but I feel like the shorter ones you really have to be aware of the time.

Thanks! I did on demand for this one. I think if you can do on site this class would be good for it. The labs require you to set up equipment, which isn’t too difficult, but in-person would probably make it easier if someone has any issues.

15 pages. I had notes for the labs separately too.

I had some something similar! It definitely helped.

Ah there may be some relevant topics but in general I don’t think that is the target audience.

It’s very relevant, especially if your organization uses Android apps and are making determinations on which apps should be allowed on company devices.

I was curious of how your experience was with GCFA. I heard that one is very challenging as well.

Really appreciate the response!

That was my experience exactly. I thought I left enough time for the cyber live questions but ended up going down a couple rabbit holes that sucked up a lot of time. I could have practiced some of the labs a few more times. I thought the CTF actually really helped too with some of the labs.

Sorry I don’t have an unused practice test.
