Passed CISSP-ISSMP!!!

FalasiFalasi Member Posts: 115
Took the exam early morning today around 8:30 , done by almost 10:15. it was my 2nd try (paper-based by last march: 657) and let me tells you this:

- Most of the questions were hard , answers were confusing most of the time.
- No break was allowed , no water either (worst time for migraine).
- the room was extra cold even for summer. basically was shaking. (or maybe coz I'm thin..)

by the end of 1st run over all questions I had 40 questions for review + 5 for answer. I went for my best logical answer and submit.

got the "Congratulation! you have finished the exam" and I was like did I pass or what now. went to the reception and the guy was getting my result. he was like hmmm icon_study.gificon_confused.gif??:.... "oh you passed"

general understanding of the official materials + CISM review and exam the week before was helpful. I still need to submit endorsement paper + resume though.

Edit: I've checked with ISC2 support and there is no need to submit anything , however just to make sure , I'll scan vue "pass" paper and email it along with my resume. thanks everyone. :)!

edit2: Officially, I can use ISSMP designation :D , ok this was fast XD! to think that 24h ago I wasn't sure that I can pass XD

    Congrats! I saw this last year and didn't seem to be very much study material, do you have any recommendations?

    I've used CISM review manual (had the exam last week). not sure how but it clarified things for me and ISSMP guide was easy to read. I've read so many comment about the guide being bad and not representing the exam in any way. but the nature of ISC2 exams - and ISSMP one in particuler - hardly gives you direct question or about 1 or 2 concepts, instead the fully understanding the concept will really help.

    My suggestion (what I've done actually) : try answering the end of chapters' questions without reviewing anything , check your answer (without the explanations) , read the guide fully and test yourself again. GL

    Thanks everyone for your support :) without that and the knowledge I gained through reading the countless topics here; I wouldn't be able to get anywhere in any Certification.
