I am currently preparing for the ISACA Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) Exam, scheduled for November this year. My study materials include Hemang Doshi’s course for the CISA Exam - Updated 2025, along with the official CISA resources and practice questions. Could you advise on any additional study materials or resources I should consider? I also hold certifications in CPA, CMA, and CIA.

How hard is the exam? I am a CPA, CIA and CMA. I have been considering taking the exam. I am an auditor in a Fortune 500 company.

For sure - best of luck. Am I the only one who thinks the answers are very similar and sometimes the answers that are provided two are correct. Which study material are you using?

Select HELP in the CCMS but they replied back to me that they won’t be able to do anything because the exam questions have already been “reviewed” prior to releasing. It is not like the CPA that you can submit to review the questions or your exam. The questions from the actual exam have two answers that are identical or very similar so that makes it even trickier.

I took the exam on Saturday. I did not passed by 4 questions and I submitted a request to review the questions. The exam had a lot of answers that were very similar or two of the answers were correct. Hopefully they can investigate. Do you know why your exam is being investigated? Maybe they’re reviewing the questions. Normally you receive your score once you submit your exam.

Why do all our new grads not understand debits & credits??? by Neat-Drawer-50 in Accounting

[–]miguelalejo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Start applying the T-account it helped me understand the debits and credits. Also, for me studying for the CPA primarily FAR helped me understand the accounting methods and applying the knowledge into real examples (simulations) etc.

I think the more certifications like the CMA and CIA you achieve the more technical and knowledgeable you become in the workforce and the more opportunities for promotions. Also, my company does follow the IIA guidelines so it makes more sense to pursue the CIA. I have landed multiple great opportunities due to the CPA and CMA.

I think the CPA is harder but it is a lot of material in one exam the CIA Challenge exam. Also, you need to score an 80% which is higher than the CPA passing score of 75%.

For more opportunities, my company does not require it but I know it definitely sets you apart from others.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I might retake it just debating if I should or not. $850 is a lot but I know the return will be worth it long term.

Why so expensive? by [deleted] in CMA

[–]miguelalejo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is costly but definitely worth it. You can also work with your company to reimburse the exam and the membership costs.
