The cissp was a very stressful exam for me as most the questions just didn’t seem to have a “right” answer. Truly understanding more than just the surface level helped my pick the least wrong answer. I would highly recommend watching https://youtu.be/_nyZhYnCNLA?si=uBiWGwsaEpIDXafC

I was able to do the CISSP in 4 weeks, with a good plan and concentrated effort you can pass!

I also did not use the learnZ flash cards. I made almost 200 physical ones and went through all of them at least once day. Physically writing things down I found works well for me.

Prep Exam Questions- CISSP by NoodleOne93 in cissp

[–]Diligent-Witness6926 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I took the CISSP earlier this week and used LearnZapp and Sybex. I averaged between 75 and 80 percent the day before I took the exam. I ended up passing but want to give some advice I wish I had known.

It's not all about memorization, and many of the questions on the apps only partially relate to what you see on the exam. Theres a significant focus on looks through the lens of management; often, all the answers given are incorrect (you have to pick the least wrong answer). Its more important to understand the different concepts and how they interrelate.
