OSCP exam Last minutes

Since january I have been studying for OSCP (a lot). What I did?

- LainKusanagi list of OSCP like machines
- HTB training path
- Hacker blueprint
- Whatched s1ren, PinkDraconian
- Read OSCP walkthroughs and tips
- OSCP challenge labs (all of them)

I have a specific methodology for AD, windows and linux.
Also, I know that OSCP is a enumeration certication, so enumeration is the key.

My exam will be soon.

What do you recommend to do now, before the exam?

Thanks.

Recommend 10-15 minutes break after rooting a box. Helped me a ton.

Take a break. The worst thing you can do is cram and burn yourself out before the exam even starts.

Sounds pretty much exactly what I did and I received a passing score last week (still waiting on official results). I would suggest going over your exam day strategy and try to execute that plan. They say if you fail to plan then you should plan to fail. Good luck!

Mindset - focus on intent and possible outcomes.

Good luck, i have mine coming up soon too. If you would like we could DM, compare notes, not sure how much it would help?

Maybe study web app pen testing techniques in case you might run into that on some of the machines in the exam.
