Passed!
Took and passed exam today!
It was a toss up at the end, thankfully my printout said "Congratulations" instead of showing my Score.
Materials Used:
Sunflower - very good quick overview and refresher of the domains
Shon Harris 6th ed.
Eric Conrad's 11th Hour
CCCure
Downloaded all .mp3's of the domains from cybersecstudy.com (These were extremely helpful)
Study Method:
Listened to cybersecstudy .mp3's in the car at the gym, pretty much everywhere. Took several CCCure quizzes to identify weaknesses. Went through Shon Harris book for in-depth study of weak areas. Went over CCCure Scenario Questions. Memorized all Crypto Algorithms and attributes. Reviewed alot of Access Control and BCP/DRP questions. Read through Conrad's book over the last three days. Set my benchmark to be at 80% on the CCCure queizzes before I scheduled the exam. I have 15 years experience in the industry and the test still through me for a loop.

Sounds like you had a good study plan and put in the time. That is all that really matters when it comes to passing the CISSP.
Could you please guide is it worth to study ISC(2) Official CBK and which practice test has to follow and would be helpful towards exam.
Best Regards,
