Happy to announce that I'm now a Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) professional.
TL;DR of the success is:
- Read just one book. This book is awesome for experienced security principle. Explains just what is needed for experienced person.
- Utilized all practice questions and exams that came with the book
- Practised full practice exam on CCCure.org approx 5 times. I did not find it much useful.
And
No questions were even near to practice exam questions, the exam was expectionally centric towards CONCEPTS.
TIPS for the exam:
- Read the questions carefully before answering one
- Attempt easy questions first
- Attempt answering the scenario based questions correctly
- One great benefit of giving the full practice test is it makes you sit to give 250 answers..:)
- Take breaks whenever you want during the exam, you have plenty of time
All the best,
Nilesh
