CISM and CRISC

Qwayt

Hi,

could someone tell me if it is worth to browse CISM questions and answers DB when taking the CRISC? Maybe someone has both DB's and could share their experience.

I have CISM DB, but no CRISC and have no idea if would be good to practice on CRISC DB.

Thanks

Welcome to the TE forums. While there are topics on CRISC which are similar to the CISM, using the CISM DB for preparation for the CRISC is not going to give you comprehensive coverage of the domains. The CRISC is not a subset of the CISM.

I never got the CISM db so I can't compare it to the CRISC db. But I thought the CRISC db was mediocre. Probably because the CRISC is a newer certification for ISACA. It may have gotten better this year. But when I used it - I didn't spend a lot of time with it because I only got the db about 2 days before I took the exam. The CRISC Q&A review manual would have been sufficient for my own needs. But if you have the time and you like online reviews, you may want to consider the CRISC Db.

Good luck on the exam.
