Passing Score

In order to maintain the high integrity of our certification exams, EC-Council Exams are provided in multiple forms (i.e., different question banks). Each form is carefully analyzed through beta testing with an appropriate sample group under the purview of a committee of subject matter experts, ensuring that each of our exams is not only academically sound, but also has 'real world' applicability. We apply an internal process to determine the difficulty rating of each question. The individual rating then contributes to an overall 'Cut Score' for each exam form. To ensure each form has equal assessment standards, cut scores are set on a 'per exam form' basis. Depending on which exam form is challenged, cut scores can range from 60% to 78%.
