- Опубліковано 22 тра 2024
- On February 4, 2024, I FAILED the OSCP with a score of 60.
On March 20, 2024, I PASSED! I not only passed, I fully compromised every machine.
In this video, I share my top 20 tips that helped me go from FAIL to FULL points.
These are tips I slowly gathered over 6 months of studying for the OSCP, including the time between my first and second attempt

This video is a breath of fresh air. Spot on. No hype. No bullshit.
Thanks!
So it sounds keep on working on vulnerability scanning
Loved the video! I was in the same boat, I failed with 60 points. I got the 10 bonus points. I completed the AD set and got a shell on 1 stand alone. BUT!!! because I sucked at priv esc I spent way too long on trying to move forward before trying something else. I started on another machine and after hours of trying other things I found the path forward...so to speak. I found how it was vulnerable but the method I was using to exploit it were wrong...but close. After failing I've been doing almost nothing but priv esc and trying to get better at different web app attacks. I re-organized my notes BECAUSE the way to exploit the machine was actually buried in my 1GB note file. I felt kinda dumb for not even looking but I'm fixing it now and I feel pretty confident about my next attempt, especially after watching this. This helps!
Thanks for sharing! Good luck on your next attempt!
First of all, CONGRATULATIONS! Secondly, holy crap.. this video was spot on perfect. Thank you! I’m going to note down all of these tips and make sure to have all things in order for my exam in a few weeks. Thank you! 10/10 video!
Thank you! Good luck on your exam!
lets go
best video for OSCP tips. thank you
Thank you, Mostafa!
Great quality and easy to listen to. I’ll go for the OSCP after the PNPT!
Thank you! I have heard a number of people are taking that route. Let me know how it goes!
Seriously awesome job on both the exam & the video. Keep it up!
Thank you, Tyler!
Loved it!
Thank you!
Very cool thanks.
Cheers!
I appreciate the clarity of this tip list, my biggest takeaway (that I experience almost daily) is that if a machine is acting up, just restart it and don't lost precious time. I have experienced this in HTB and wasted days on machines just because a specific port was not open for my first few scans. Awesome information, I have the CPTS coming up late May and I'm sure this advise will be effective at passing that exam as well!
Thanks. Good luck on the CPTS!
oscp mindset is not the same as ctf. wont help you much, i know people who have trouble with the oscp from doing htb and vice versa. two different mindsets. if you get both you have a VERY VERY solid base.
@@satanicdominion666 I have definitely heard there are differences between the two; I have been doing the CPTS academy path with Labs as supplemental practice. Have you taken either or both of the exams? If so, what are the major differences you've noticed?
Great content!
Thank you!
Thank you, starting the OSCP 90 day course at the end of the month
Good luck!
Me too. Study buddy?
My exam's in a few days. Thank you for these tips
Good luck!

@@alihussainzada3392 I failed🤣
THANK YOU
Glad you liked it!
Great video! very clear and concise way of explaining and giving such useful tips. I have my exam in 12 days from now, I am done with pwk course ,Medtech, Relia, A & B sets. Where should I invest my time for the next week? PG practice boxes? or Skylark network? thanks for all the tips.
Take time to review, get all your tools in one folder, and PG Practice boxes if you want more practice.
thx for these good words
Thank you!
Please make a video on how did you practice before the exam!! All the labs that you did
Thank you. How long did you spend time for studying on tutorials? Or focus on labs?
I spent about 3 months to study all the materials and get ~37 flags from the challenge labs for my first attempt. After my first attempt, I did ~25 PG Practice labs as well as the Tiberius Windows + Linux Privesc micro courses.
Which level did you solve in pg labs? intermadiate, easy etc?
I did a mix of easy, intermediate, and hard. Google "TJ Null list" for a list of most of the labs I did.
Congratulations !! I will be giving exam in two months what about Active Directory is it easy or difficult ??
Not easy, but very doable if you prepare well.
@@mikegroppthanks I will prepare very well !!!❤
any tips on finding those discord channels?
The official Offsec discord channel is a good place to start.
where is my summary of the video ? lol ! shoulda taken a backup somewhere ...now I have to go through 25mins of video😅
"An escalator can never break: it can only become stairs. You should never see an 'Escalator Temporarily Out Of Order' sign, just 'Escalator Temporarily Stairs. Sorry for the convenience.' " --Mitch Hedberg
@@mikegropp I turned the escalator into a customized elevator with a bit of tweak, you downgraded it from an elevator to a stair where I'll need to walk 25mins or half that by running at twice the normal speed... Not nice , Not nice!
But honestly did you sell a kidney to get a exam like that twice? I mean the reason i don't take it is because of the insane price.
It's all perspective on what you will do with what you learn. I made more on my first pentest after the OSCP than I spent on the OSCP, so it's already worth it for me.
AHAHAHHAHAHAH BERLIN
