I started in Sept 2024 Exam Date Dec 7 2024 Completed in 1h 30m Question 110? My exam was mostly the wordy questions, maybe 5 one line questions. I was between projects and felt this would be a good time to get this off of my plate. I had no specific routine, just used something on my list. Now I would say that I spent most of my time in practice questions/exams. I felt that was a way to weed out what I knew. If I was really weak in an area I would use both books and freshen up my knowledge. I did a lot of QOD (Question of the day) or a quick 10 in the apps, this could be anytime when I first got up, before bed, if I woke up in the middle of the night, waiting at a doctors office etc. If I began to memorize the answers to questions I would move to another app, or in the case of LearnZapp I would go through all of the questions in 1 domain. I noticed as I was doing questions, my average time was in the 17 seconds range sometimes less, but my score was not changing very much. So I devised my own hack to get a feeling for time. I set my phone to 1 minute 20 seconds (3 hours divided by 125 questions = 1 m 26 s) The I would take a Quick 10 or maybe 30 questions, watching the clock, even if I knew the answer at least let a minute go by to "feel" how much time was left.

Well I provisionally passed my CISSP today. I will out of communication for a week, but I promise I will share what, how etc when I return. I will leave you with this, my exam was mostly long form questions, unlike others here who have said they had single sentence questions.

Thanks to @Vincent Primiani and everyone on this platform! Key take away : put your effort and leave the rest to the universe! I took Paul as my role model thanks @Paul Frederick

Here is a short "crib" note on encryption. One thing to note is the last row, while not perfect, if you are asked about "S"ymmetric or "A"symmetric encryption. Symmetric RC4, AES, DES, 3DES, and QUAD. <-- Most end in "S" Asymmetric RSA, Diffie-Hellman, ECC, El Gamal, and DSA. <- Some end in "A", if you add the ones with longer names that contain "A" (Diffie-HellmAn, and El GAmAl) Then you will know the others that are Asymmetric I hope this makes sense.
