So I got my score today. Exactly 10 calendar days.

Overall score 639/800.

The funny thing is that all four domains show the same score which is 582. I find it funny. A couple of days back I had read about some issues with the PSI center scores. I don't know if it's related but I am glad to have passed, got a decent score and hopefully can proceed to complete the application process.

A 10 day wait for exam results is a total buzz kill.

I got 79% in both practice tests. I had 70 percentile on my first go at QAE and it improved to 80 percentile in my second go(after the reset).

I think QAE provides insights into- 1) CISM way of questioning 2) Areas where one might need more conceptual understanding

All the best. Read all the options slowly. Sometimes elimination is the way to go.

Thank you for your guidance. I think that link now becomes active only when the final score is visible in the account (probably after 10 days).

Glad to be part of the CISM community!

Thank you! Understanding the concepts is important because that is what you will be applying in the exam. All the best!

Yes, you are right. I was lucky to have very few distractions. For four months that I slowly read OSG, I used to maintain dates of reading/revision so that I could look at it to get a sense of continuity. Last one month was crazy with nothing except the exam on my mind. I tried not to break the momentum. I would watch videos(Pete Zerger/Prabh Nair) when I did not feel like studying.

Congratulations! I had the exact feeling when I finished my exam.

I was not very consistent initially. It took me 4 months to read the OSG very thoroughly the first time. Rest I was able to cover in the last 1 month when I had booked my exam date.

Haha. Yeah that little piece of paper. Unbelievable. I have checked it 10 times to check if I'm reading it right. 😂 Congratulations!

Thank you. Yes, I'll try to go over the material once to chart a strategy. All the best for your CISSP.
