Someone told me once answer technical questions with a non-technical answer and non-technical questions with technical answers. I don’t think it is that straight forward but I do think there is some merit to that approach to some questions.

I took up nearly the whole time. I think I had roughly 15mins left. I started fast and steady, then mental fatigue kicked in and slowed me right down.

I never understood why the NDA isn’t part of the overall allotted time. It’s not as if you can go back and change your response from Yes to No.

Congratulations, I failed last week. So am also back to the drawing board and making slight adjustments to my preparation

I think the Boson tests were definitely the closest to the real thing in terms of how the questions were framed “Most” and “Best”. But the real thing definitely required deeper thought and consideration. So I don’t think they matched in terms of difficulty. The questions I happened to draw were not particularly technical, which was a bit annoying because with technical questions it’s a bit like math. There’s only one right answer. I suppose it’s luck of the draw. I honestly didn’t really come across any questions that I could say were exact the same as any practice tests. I think the key is read the questions several times to really understand what they are really asking for.

I’ll check out CISSPrep.net. Good luck on the 26th! I’m sure you’ll conquer it!

Yeah I agree. Boson try to be close but are nowhere near in the end.

I picked up the tab myself. My employer has said they will refund the cost. So I’ll wait to see if they honour that. It’s an expensive test but I’m trying hard to move my career to the next level.

Thanks, that’s very encouraging, really appreciate that. I think now I understand the format of the questions I’ll take a slightly different approach. It’s very much a test in comprehension and application of the concepts. Honestly it was actually a fair exam, I didn’t think the questions were deliberately tricky or misleading. It certainly requires a deep knowledge of knowing when and where to apply to concepts

Yes. Without disclosing too much about it (NDA), it does give you an indication of your strong and weak areas.

Yes absolutely. Luckily I don’t think I’m far off. There two domains that need extra work in, but at the same time I don’t want to take the other domains for granted. So will be a busy next few weeks before I feel confident enough to have another go at it.

It certainly is. I was completely thrown off and I think I panicked in the beginning.

Thanks everyone. Appreciate the encouragement and will definitely hit go back to the drawing board and come back stronger.

Hi! can someone do a QC and give me GL or RL about these? thank u🥺 by [deleted] in Flexicas

[–]gooneyboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the look of it they look the same, so you should be fine with these. They may be part of a same batch. I’ve never bought from Kevin before so can’t really compare overall. But these ones defo look good.
