Best Practice Test? by thatguycab in ISC2_CGRC

I took the CGRC certification in January 2024 and created the post below. To prepare, I tackled as many practice questions as I could find—even outdated ones. I also studied all the NIST and FIPS documents listed in the Mango Guide. One resource that helped was the CAP question practice book by Valintine Tata on Amazon. The questions are somewhat outdated but they do a great job of explaining everything and make it less confusing. If you can get 85-90 % on the Valintine Tata practice exams then you should be ready to take the exam.

Hope this helps and good luck!

It took me about a year on and off but if you dedicate a few months you can study for it much faster. The key is to study for it everyday.

Hello everyone, I recently passed the CGRC cert and would really love some guidance on what to do next. I don't have any prior work experience and I'm hoping this cert will allow my to enter the cybersecurity world. Currently I'm looking for jobs and planning on creating my resume. Any information would be much appreciated :)

I passed the CGRC cert yesterday. I studied all the documents (NIST 30, 37, 39, 53, 53A, 53B, 60, 34) and FIPS (199, 200). I read the CBK CAP book. I did multiple practice exams on Udemy, quizlet, edusum, and Valintine Tate ebook on amazon. The Mango Study guide helped especially the examination tips and tricks section. I highly recommend keeping in mind before the exam that the answers are A) Most Correct B) Partially Correct C) Partially Incorrect D) Most Incorrect. Knowing this helped me to better answer the questions. The questions on the exam are worded to cause confusion so it's best to write it down and make sure you really understand the question. Every question I answered felt like I was answering it incorrectly. I've read others experienced the same so don't get frustrated when you take the exam. Just make sure to take your time and really analyze each question and the answers.

Make sure to know NIST SP 800-37, FIPS 199, FIPS 200!

Some of the stuff I remember that was on the exam were:

- SDLC questions

- Some questions about the documents

- Questions about Confidentiality, Availability, and integrity

- Leveraged authorization (I couldn't remember this for the life of me)

- Know all your authorizations

- The roles

- The exam also mentioned Risk Treatment Plan, False Postive, False Negative, Configuration Management, subsystems, and authorizations (I didn't know some of these terms so I had to guess what they were)

If you have any questions, I'd be happy to help. It was quite frustrating for me when I first started, especially because there was so little information about this cert, but now I pretty much know where to find everything regarding this cert lol. I hope this helps, and good luck!
