I have PTP v3 course, should i get the PTP v5 in order to pass eCPPT v2?

[Guest nofaal]

Hello there, 

a while ago when i was at college i got the PTP v3 course with eCPPT v1 voucher which is already expired. long story short, Now i want to get the eCPPT v2 cert which is $400 just for the voucher, and i already have the course material for PTP v3, from what i know is that the v5 adds two more topics Linux and Powershell and some more labs.

My question is, do i really need to get the whole training and pay $1200 instead of $400 in order to pass the exam. as of my experience I can say that i have a really good knowledge in pen-testing and i have worked with several hackthebox machines and also some vulnhub vms also i know the basics in powershell in terms of pentesting.

Please advise.

It depends on your experience. If you are experienced enough go for the voucher only...
