Two (2) Weeks before the EXAM
Hi Guys,
I started this new threat because I'm really stress with the EXAM.
The only thing that makes me feel OK is that i feel that I've prepared myself as much as i could (really!!).
Now I'm two weeks before the exam and everyday I'm making about 100 questions from 3 different quiz engines in order to keep my self in touch with the Exam. In all of these tests my score is about 80 % or above sometimes.
I'm not sure yet if everything is OK with my preparation.(I'll realize it that day
)
I've read many of your posts and I feel that i have did most of these approaches.
Study
- Sybex --> 2-3 times
- AIA --> 2 times
- Eric Conrad --> 2 times
I've complete all the tests from the Engines
- CCCure
- Trancender
- Sybex test engine
And now I still don't know if I'm ready or not or if there is anything that i can do for the last two weeks.
I'll appreciate any advice you can give me.
Thanks

I have just started studying for the CISSP and I wanted to ask you how many hours do you study per day (average) and for how long? Also, the Sybex Test Engine that you are using is an actual app or the test book?
Degree: B.S. in Computing Science, emphasis Information Assurance
Certifications: CISSP, PSP, Network+, Security+, CySA+, OSWP
I study almost a Year and a half but this is hypothetically as it relates on the available time of each one.
I usually used to read 3 hours per day and totally 12 hours per weekends.
Nobody can be sure if he he has read enough and has comprehend the meaning of the content until the day
I hope have understand the meaning of what i was reading all this period
Any advice for the last two weeks...
Could you please explain me what do you mean about the Software domain.
Secondly I have hear that the questions are huge texts, so they don't much with what we have training until know from test engines? is it true
How is the experience of the exam? do i need to care for something special?
thanks
Chapter 21 of the Sybex study guide was very helpful for this test and the Sybex official Practice Test questions were very close to the how the questions were formatted.
My experience may be different from other I sat a straight 5.5 hours focused and triple checked my answers before submitting the test. At the end I was dazed and tired, but the time flies by if your focused on the exam. There were questions that defeated me but when people say "Think like a manager" believe it, it may save your life.
Future Plans: MSc + PMP, CCIE/NPx, GIAC...
