[Cisspstudy] CISSP Exam result

[Muhammad Malik]

Hi All,

Today i received an email from ISC2 saying that i have passed the CISSP
exam. I thought i might failed after the exam but it was good surprise. I am
happy !!!!

Anyway here is what i did for the CISSP preparation which might help those
who are pursuing for CISSP certification:

- Study Shon Harris All-in-One 4th Edition. Read it thoroughly twice.
- High level reading of ISC2 Official book - going quickly through chapters.
- MP3 by Shon Harris

For practice, i used
- Offcourse cccure exam questions
- Review Questions by Shon Harris - The MP3 and Quiz file by Shon Harris
cost me around $300 (
http://www.logicalsecurity.com/store/cissp-mp3-and-quiz-file.html) but
it helps me lot in understanding the concepts.

My study plan:

- Started with reading the Shon Harris All-in-One. I read this book
thoroughly. As soon as i finish the reading of the chapter .... i will try
to do the questions at the end of the chapter
  and also from cccure.
- After finishing reading the All-in-One, i started doing the review
questions that comes with All-in-One and also i try to do the questions from
cccure. I manage to achieve the score
of above 80 % on cccure.
- Then i started doing the Quiz file by shon harris. I manage to finish most
of the domain with close to 80 %. Recommended passing score on these quiz
files are 80 %. After this
i left with 2 weeks before my exam
- I decided to read the All-in-One again. And i highly recommend anyone to
go through the material once u finish doing the quizes.
- The day before the exam i have to travel to Sydney so i didn't study.


The Exam:

The exam was confusing. The question are set in such a way that its very
hard to say that i have done well on the exam. I thought i might failed and
have make plan when to re-take my exam.
But lucky i passed. yahooooooo !!!!!!

Regards,

Dr. Muihammad Malik
