    Best of luck! Can't wait to hear about your pass and experience. I want to take the CASP in a few weeks.

    I didn't pass this time. In fact, I have a lot of studying to do. I hate that I spent a wasted week with New Horizon now that I've seen the exam.

    Sorry to hear/read! I've failed the CASP (CAS-001) before too and the worst part is that you get no feedback about what you need to work on.

    I plan on taking CAS-002 when the time presents itself aka voucher =) - I think I've improved and refined my knowledge-base in info security and assurance but we'll see. Good luck on studying and let us know when/if you're going to give it another shot.

    New Horizons tends to do boot camps, and I haven't heard much good feedback about their preparation professionally. I'm assuming that's what they were referring to here.

    Ya, it was a bootcamp. I was thinking that would be a smart way to close out my studying. Hindsight, I think I would have gained more from another week of self study.

    hmm, well I am scheduled for a NH bootcamp for CASP. However I'm not paying for it. Hopefully I have a better experience. I have been using my WGU Skillport account going through their CASP training.

    Darril Gibson started some practice questions, I have not looked through them but perhaps this could be of some assistance.

    Unfortunately I've let my CCNA expire. So I'm planning CCENT next so I can track the security path.

    Unless I can summon up the strength to give CISSP another run. I doubt that based on our sorted past. Maybe his little brother though...

    Now you are older and wiser, you may want to give CISSP another chance. icon_wink.gif
    Majority of the CISSP knowledge domains overlaps with those in CASP, topics that are not in CASP are probably asset security and those relating to policy. I may be wrong as I took the old 10 domain CISSP exam first followed by CASP 2 weeks later.

    The CISSP is less technical and has no simulation questions, so it is easier in some ways. The SSCP is also a good option.
