Passed 10/25 First attemp
WOOHOOO!!:D:D:D
So a quick breakdown for my success.
Sybex 7th edition CISSP Study guide (made it about half way, to much fluff for my liking)
Eric Conrad CISSP study guide (cover to cover)
Cybrary.it Videos (watched them all took lots of notes, about 50 pages worth and reviewed my noted 2 day prior)
CCCURE.com practice exams (did all the question, took 2 250 question test and the rest were 100 question test)
https://sybextestbanks.wiley.com/ practice exams (took one 250 question exam and did all of the end of chapter test)
I gave myself a month and a half to study for the exam and dedicated 3 hours a day on week days and 6 hours a day on weekends. I have a little over 4 years of experience in IT security(military). I also have my CEH and Sec+. It took a lot of effort but I'm glad this part is over. Now on to the endorsement process.

Sorry it took so long i took a break from thinking after i passed the exam, But thanks to all for the congrats.
Deadly-dosage: Well my exam felt very technical. I did not feel very confidents on around 100 of the questions. I just made my best guess with process of elimination. The key was taking breaks when i started to get frustrated, allowing myself to gather my thoughts and reevaluate. I flagged around 75 questions but only ended up changing around 3 or 4.
