CISSP Exam 31/07/2014
Hi Folks
I have been following this forum closely the last two months for all possible advice on the CISSP exam.(really informative)
I have scheduled my first attemp on Thursday 31/07/2014.
Background: I have been working in IT for the last 12 years of which the last 6 years have been in Network/Systems/Information security.
I have used the following materials for preperation during the last 6 months:
Shon Harris AIO 6th edt. - Read through once and reviewed all domains a second time over.
Eric Conrad - CISSP study guide 2nd edt. - read it once
Eric Conrad - 11th Hour - Read it once.
Keith Barker CISSP - CBT
I worked through all the questions on Total tester that came with the Shon Harris book when I purchased it and scoring on average 80-90%.
I have done all the questions from the Shon Harris book.
I subscribed for Transcender as well and worked through all the questions averaging 75%
Obviously feeling still nervous for next week with everyone slamming the exam as so hard.
Any other recommendations?
Thanks,
J

Take a look at my post titled "So you want to be a CISSP..." and several similar posts about taking the tests. Take a few 250 question tests and see how you do... time and concentration wise. Most test takers adopt a "one break and 2 pass" strategy... you simply take a break probably half way thru or after a first pass on the exam... followed by another pass at the marked questions. you will have to create your own strategy depending on your concentration levels... a "two break, two pass" strategy is not uncommon.
Best of luck in the exam...!!!
