Goldmann said: I am grateful to have passed CISA on my first try on Dec 29th 2020. It was the most straightforward ISACA exam I have sat for so far, having earlier passed the CISM and CRISC.I found it much easier than CISM and CRISC. The questions were much clearer and I found that I could pick out my answer after just the first read. I used the CISA videos on Cybrary, Hemang Doshi's short/summarized YouTube videos and the online ISACA Q&A database. I skimmed through the CISA AIO targeting my weak areas (especially domains 4 and 5). Make sure you are scoring well over 80% or better still in the mid 90% range on the online ISACA Q&A database prior to sitting.You have to understand the material and the key or core auditing concepts to pass this exam. You must know what an Auditor should do in every situation and understand the meaning of the terminology and how they apply within the scope of auditing. Good luck to all prospective Candidates. It is certainly very doable. If I could pass on the first try, so can you.

How long you spent for CISA after complete the CISM. I found this on youtube - Webcram about interrelated CISM & CISA and should be taking both. Do you think QADB is the main important resource too? (:( pricey)

(:( pricey) Thanks Buddy!That video on webcram is apt and spot-on. I was adviced by a veteran to take them close together if I could. There are several overlaps between CISM and CISA. My opinion looking back is that I did myself a huge favor by taking the CISA shortly after taking the CISM. After the CISM, I was convinced I had assumed the ISACA management mindframe. I therefore took the CRISC a month later successfully and CISA a month thereafter.About the QADB, its an invaluable resource. Depending on how you use it, it can really get you familiar with some question structures. I thin kits worth every cent if you can afford it. Go hard! You'll ace it.Waiting to offer you my congratulations.

Looking forward to reviewing your suggested CISA materials.Cheers

scasc said: Well done. The CISA was the most enjoyable one I did, probably because I could relate to it so much. I only used the Q&A to prepare - over a couple weeks.
