Review

Success Score

In order to maintain the high integrity of our certification exams, the EC-Cuncil exams are offered in several forms (i.e. different question banks). Each form is carefully analyzed through beta tests with an appropriate sample group under the supervision of a committee of experts in the field who ensure that each of our examinations not only has academic rigour but also a applicability in the "real world". We also have a process to determine the difficulty rating of each issue. The individual rating then contributes to a global "Coupure Score" for each form of examination. To ensure that each form has equivalent evaluation standards, cut-off scores are established on a "by examination" basis. Depending on the form of examination being contested, cut-off scores may range from 60% to 78%.
