Third time's the charm I passed!!

After talking the exam twice , I finally passed the third time and I have to say it was harder than before.

It took me full 6 hours, only had 10 mins to go back to the ones I had flagged, two I had left out which I answered and I managed to
change answers for 5 or 6 and I forgot how many I had flagged for review which I never got too.

I came out exhausted and mad, I knew I had failed again. The lady gave me my paper and I folded it went out of the office and just said
F#%K IT! let me unfold the paper and it said Congratulations! I thought I was seeing things, so I read the paper carefully just to make sure
it is not a new format and surely I had passed!!

I want to thanks the forum for the advises and reading others failures and then their success just made me more motivated..

I did alot of practice exams from the cccure and shon harris cd, that helped alot..

The book I used was sybex..

Now I'm going to just drop and get some rest!!!

Hi Tony,

Congratulations for passing the CISSP !
I was wondering if you have come across to any of the new style questions (hotspot and drag-and-drop) in your exam.

Thanks Kapo.

I didn't come across the new format. I think it is still to early in the year for them to put out the new format.
