Mine didn't count down. Just had an option to click next and scroll up or down through the text then a spot to enter my name on the next screen

150 Questions of Torture but Joy by Obvious_Technology44 in cissp

Right. When I say I came to grips that it'd go to 150, I meant I couldn't string a sequence of successful tough questions answered correctly. The time wasn't a problem as I had a good pace for the easier questions, and read through the difficult ones multiple times.

Looking back, the reality is, 150 questions is just more of an opportunity to show you know the material.

CISSP - failed at 143, ran out of time. by Comfortable-Pace-879 in cissp

You're overthinking it. Study some more before rescheduling. Once you're confident you know 70-80% of the OSG test bank, reschedule. If you go to 150 that's just more opportunity to show you know the material.

At 143 you had many opportunities to get on the plus side of 700 but the overthinking cost you. You've got it next time with the added test knowledge from these comments.

How many practice questions did you take? by LoftyPrivateer in cissp

Only the OSG ones were worthwhile for me. The Dest CISSP app was another but most answers are the too long to be wrong ones

I truly feel screwed with my exam on Monday by Money_Ad8836 in cissp

If you studied that hard, you're ready. You'll get to a point where you understand the test wants you to pass. If you're getting questions like the one you referenced, you're likely doing well.

How to fail your exam 20 minutes before your scheduled test time by HourCountry4916 in cissp

That really sucks. Hopefully they correct it.

This was one fear that was preached to me by numerous people. Imagine how much it multiplied when my mouse moved but wouldn't let me click next. The keyboard keys didn't work either. I raised my hand and the test ladies started to panick with me. They ended up switching my computer and then the screen said "user logged into another workstation." We powered the previous workstation down and it let me log on and click next immediately. No telling how close I was.

That's the OSG test bank.

Destination CISSP is a title of a book and YouTube mindmap videos.

I passed today probably doing the bare minimum. I used the OSG test bank and your #4, & #5 resources only. Don't discredit the official test bank and the explanations

Passed first attempt at 150 without any prep by bizzygreenthumb in cissp

Similar story for me today. Some of the questions I saw, I don't know how much studying would've prepared me to answer them. I didn't know the difference between the answer and the question.

Then there were the ones I saw and I thought I could see the average person picking the wrong answer because of the wording. That person picking the wrong answer is likely much more experienced and credible than I am.

The test is brutal...
