This course is excellent if you have any interest in ethical hacking at all. It might be easier to understand if you had some familiarity with computer networks and operating systems, though.
Regarding the exam, it's simple. I was anxious about the exam's possible questions before I took it, but it turned out to be quite simple. My friend passed the test with a B+ mark despite not studying at all. -
