Passed CISSP test

ok. I studied every work day for an hour +/- for 3 months. Then I took a training camp coarse. I studied as hard as I have ever studied for anything in my life. It was intense, but I felt that I not only was ready for the test, but had a very strong foundational understating of all the domains. Sat for test on 2/15/2014

I had a CISSP associate send in my endorsement and received my confirmation email of the receipt of my endorsement today, Feb 18th. I will post back with how long it takes and what happens.

Advice for candidates getting ready for the test: Understanding worked better for me than brute force memorization., but that is just me.

Endorsement time various of course, but many of us in the Feb 2014 cohort got theirs in approx. 3 weeks.

For the SSCP, it took roughly 2-3 days after submission of documentation for the status to change. Once all the required endorsement documents are submitted, verification should take 3-6 weeks.

Just Checking my email. No place online that I have ever seen.

Do you have your member number? You could try this site: https://webportal.isc2.org/custom/certificationverification.aspx I don't recall if it was updated before or after I got my email though.

I guess not available till after the endorsement process is done.
