Edison NJ 4/21

Took the CISSP exam a month ago in Edison.

I was a bit hasty with the scheduling. Only gave myself 65 days to prep. I felt really good when I left the exam but it really could go either way.

However, I should mention I have zero experience in security and only passed Security+ on Jan 28th. Looking to make a career transition as I have wanted to get into security for a while now.

Fingers crossed as I hope to get results this week.

How is it possible to take the CISSP with no experience? I'm just curious because I thought the exam required that you have x amount of hours of experience before you could even take it, plus have a sponsor. Did something change recently?

You can take the exam without the experience and a sponsor. However, you will not earn the designation of CISSP.
