Very well said,<br><br>Let's face it, you are making reference to ten domains of expertise. Any of those ten domains could easily contain 250 questions each. ISC2 has to select a subset of each of the domains. <br><br>
The quiz can help you a few ways:<br><br>1. You identify topics you DO NOT know<br><br>2. You identify your weakest domains<br><br>3. It will help you remember key topics as well<br><br>Any question that you miss should be researched.<br>
<br>Any question that you miss should be added to your own personalized quiz by doing a cut and paste of the question into your word processor software.<br><br>This is how you will get the best benefit of quizzing.<br><br>
The exam has it's own unique style of questions that you will not find anywhere.<br><br>Do take care<br><br>Clement<br><br>

Review questions (from any books/CDs) are just that ... reviews. The CISSP exam is made up of ... exam questions. They are not the same. The exam is designed to "test" you, not to "review" what you know. :)<br>
<br>
I took the US one on 08/09 ... and was shockingly surprised to see that none of the reviews remotely resemble the actual exam questions. I would be very happy if the reviews would provide 75% of passing materials, unfortunately, they only provide me with 50% ... or the required knowledge. The other 50% are from ... actual experience. :(<br>

It all depends on what you want to spend and trust.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I have tried ISC Security transcend and wasted.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Some of the folks that passed the test felt that Harris provides you with<br>
75% of the things you need to know.<br>
