in CISM
Hello everyone.

Quick question ..Sorry if it is a silly one.

I am taking the CISM next month.

I am almost done with the Answers and Explanations Manual and the Review Manual (14th edition).

Is the Q and E database offered by ISACA different to the Answers and Explanations manual. I dont want to spend additional money if this is the same.

Please advise.

    Most probably you are taking Beta Exam. In fact 14th Edition a little bit old. They have recommended 15th Edition. But there should no big difference. I am also taking beta exam and doing preparation with 14th Edition. Because this is beta one, so we can't have any idea about format and style. Good Luck :).

    most likely same questions... but...

    i used the online QAE database for the CISM (in Dec 2016)
    i used the printed QAE database for the CISA (in Sept 2016)

    that said, i was aware the printed CISA manual (not QAE) had additional practice questions the previous year did not have (2015 version vs 2016 version).

    i enjoyed the online version of the QAE database so much more...
    if/when I take the CRISC exam, I will use the online version again

    Agree with Coffeeisgood, most likely same questions, but the online version is much easier and quicker to get through. It also gives you instant feedback on problem areas which you can then focus on.
