CISSP - Less than 24 hours to go.

So, I'm sitting this CISSP in less than 24 hours: 12/6/2013 8:00AM EST. I'm a little nervous, but I think with the amount of reading, quizzing, and studying I did in general I should be OK. Only time will tell! As usual, I will update this thread post-exam, as soon as I walk out of the testing center.

Not sure were some of you guys are located, but I don't sit the exam until tomorrow (see quote above from my original post)...

Currently here it is 12/5/2013 3:35PM EST.

Good luck man, I know we were studying for this around the same time. I pushed up the my date and ended up passing early November. Best of luck!

Hey congrats on reaching the big day tomorrow. I just sat and took my examination on the 30th. Passed first time. If this is the first time you're seeing the test, the only real advice I could give (not even sure if you want it right now

) is to not let the lack of terminology throw you. It took me probably 100-150 questions before my brain could accept the change in question format.

I made sure (as best I could keep myself to it) to not select an answer if I was unsure. I marked it flag and left it blank so that I wasn't second guessing myself when I reviewed it. That wasn't my idea by the way...this forum is a good resource.

Best of luck and knock it out of the ball park.

cgrimaldo, TechGuy215,

My bad! The funny part, TechGuy215 and I are in the same time zone, PA and MI.

Well guys...its a no go. Got a 637/700. The Software development life cycle/ security questions KILLED me... There were several of them on the exam. Oh we'll back to the books..: (

oh that's too bad, i am very sorry. i am still studying and don't know what to do if i don't pass. I guess i will feel bad for a week and then reopen the books.

What was your study plan until now? Any other comments you can give us?

cyberguypr

Bummer. Take a few days to regroup. What are your weakest domains?

It's okay it happens, at least you know what to expect next time.

colemic

Just keep on keeping on... you can do it!

cgrimaldo

Sorry to hear that. Keep plugging away!!!!

hylaab

Wow, sorry to hear that. Well, at least you now know where to concentrate, weaker domains. Just curious, how long did the exam took you to complete?

j.petrov

sorry to hear that!

Sorry to see you failed the exam, at least you've seen it and know what to expect next time. Hopefully work reimburses you for the cost.
