    Whew, what a long wait. After monitoring this forum and seeing the results were out, I checked my home email and saw that I passed with a 624! Not sure how that rates compared to the scale but I'll take it. For those not so lucky, stay with it and buy the All-In-One CISA book and CISA Study Guide by Cannon and you'll pass next time. Now comes the application part.

    Going to defcon also to celebrate.

    I have been in IS Auditing for 8 years and then IT prior to that along with my CISSP which I took 8 years ago, so my preparation consisted of a total of 5 days right before the exam. Phew...got lucky

    Filled out and printed the application. Getting the verification signed this week.

    Anybody else here who has taken the June 2011 CISA exam, have not received their results via email?

    I would call ISACA and see what the deal is. The ISACA portal still shows results pending, so you won't get any info there. Check your spam filters. Crossing my fingers that you passed, amigo!
    Working on: staying alive and staying employed

    Interesting that there will be others from here at DEF CON. Knowing that I passed will also make it much more enjoyable for me.

    So I called ISACA and they said they portal should be updated with the exam results by EOB Thursday. Just a little slow. Lol.

    Anyone who did not make it on the June exam, please feel free to contact me via phatsacks on gmail, and I'll be glad to go over your previous training plan, and see what we can do to better position you for taking it in December. Remember - Failing the exam was not a bad thing, it was access to the best study material.

    Hi Phat, thanks. Looking forward to talk to you. :)

    Ok so after all my stressing, I passed the CISA exam not by not much but passed.:D
  • redmondredmond Member Posts: 18 ■□□□□□□□□□
    I would suggest you to buy on the ISACA website. If you are a ISACA member, you do get a discount. All the best.

    icon_cheers.gif I passed the CISA on my first attempt!

    Now if anyone can help me find a JR IT Audit position within the GTA (Toronto, ON) I can start building my requirements! icon_lol.gif

    Study Tips:
    -I registered and attended the Official CISA Exam Prep Course (every Saturday morning) It was fairly expensive and some instructors were better than others. But all in all I did pass...

    -Do ALL the sample questions from the CD. MEMORIZE the answer and reasons as to why its not the others options.

    Just time to study more and earn some more CPEs.

    1. How long does it normally take for ISACA to certify from the time CISA certification application gets submitted? I submitted the application on the 3rd of August 2011 by fax.

    2. Is there any way to know what the overall pass rate for CISA June 2011 exam is? Are there statistics on past CISA exam pass rates?

    1. I understand it can take up to 8 weeks. I suspect their crack team of geriatric snails shift from scoring exams to processing endorsement applications. Be prepared to wait.

    2. The CISA historically has a pass rate of 50% from published results. It has been improving, but it is by no means an easy exam.

    This is my first post on the forum. After 8 long weeks finally I find out I passed the CISM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!icon_cheers.gif. I have a question for the forum. I am applying for a new job and want to know if it is acceptable to put it on my resume but to anotate that it is pending endorsement. Please give your opinions on this subject. Thanks guys.
  • coolz203coolz203 Member Posts: 73 ■■□□□□□□□□
    I sent in my application last week on Wednesday by fax. I called to verify that it was received and for some reason a few pages were missing. I then resent via email. On Friday I got back an email saying they are reviewing the application and the portal says the application is complete. I hope it won't take 8 weeks to get the certification.

    First question...how much experience do you have in IS auditing? The more the better and the easier it is to pass and the easier it is to make recommendations on what to study.
  • badrottiebadrottie Member Posts: 116
    Received my notice from ISACA yesterday. I am officially a CISM :)

    Documents submitted August 19th
    Endorsement received August 24th

    6 day turn-around! That was even faster than (ISC)2.

    Very cool badrottie. I got my notification yesterday that I am now a CISA. Now on to the next cert.
