Sharing My CGEIT Journey

I used the ISACA Review Manual and used the Google to reinforce concepts. I also used the training slide by Bill Pankey From Tunitas.

The exam is a lot more about what you would do under certain situation. Which i think is about decision making. Which is good, because things didn't need to be as memorized

I finished in 3 hours and 30 minutes, 15 minutes to look over some questions.
Change few answers.
