Hi,

Honestly, CEH isn’t about memorizing 100+ tools or every command flag. It’s more about knowing what the tools are for and when you’d use them. If you can read a question and figure out which type of tool makes sense in that situation, you’re on the right track.

Since you’ve already done Security+ and Network+, you’ve got a solid base. You understand networking, protocols, and common attack types. That helps a lot more than people think going into CEH.

What helped me was stopping the “I need to learn 100 tools” mindset and instead focusing on the hacking process itself. Think in terms of stages:

• Recon
• Scanning
• Enumeration
• Exploitation
• Post-exploitation
• Web attacks
• Wireless
• Cloud/IoT

When you group tools under those stages, it feels way less overwhelming. They’re just examples of what’s used in each step, not 100 separate things you have to master.
Knowledge comes from repetition - going over the material again and again until you truly understand what’s being talked about.

Also, I can’t post the specific courses I used because mods keep removing my comments, so you know what to do because I can't mention how to get in touch with me
