CC self paced exam format

tommyq — Thu, 01 Sep 2022 18:37:57 GMT

Does anybody know what format the exam is? I've been told the questions aren't multiple choice as we see in the course itself. Also, are there and sample tests to practice with? Thanks.

Hi @tommyq - yes, it's multiple choice 🙂

We cover the exam format - and the content of the exam - on the Exam Outline page: https://www.isc2.org/Certifications/CC/Certification-Exam-Outline

I hope this helps!

Does the materials provided by ISC2 Self paced training itself is enough for clearing it?

Re: CC self paced exam format

md3v — Mon, 12 Sep 2022 12:43:33 GMT

Yes, it does. There are 100 multiple-choice questions in the exam of which ~25 are "beta/test" questions and are pretty obvious as such.

Asking for "brain dumps" to pass an exam suggests unethical behaviour on your part.

ISC2 and other exam vendors have strict rules about taking their exams, one of them is that you commit (sign a contract) to never cheat. And in essence, "brain dumps" (questions and answers copied from real exams) are absolutely cheating.

If you want to join ISC2 as student and participant, you will need to adhere to ISC2's code of ethics, which includes commitments against cheating.

The official training materials, the self-paced learning, does have practice questions, yes.

It includes:

Knowledge checks after each chapter.
A post-training assessment, consisting of 75 questions.

Did you only study the training course material given by ISC^2?

Me personally, I did not study for the exam at all. I took it, to test it for my students and colleagues, to see if it was any good.

My colleagues at work, most of them will only use the ISC2 free study materials. Some will also add training materials from PluralSight, which we have access to through work. Others might add a bit of materials from Mike Chappel, via LinkedIn Learning.

But yea, most people just use the ISC2 official materials.

Hi,
Currently, I am studying the material which ISC2 provided and I also came across with the linkedin Mike Chappel but they require free trail for a month so most of their material is out graded bcz I didnt signup for that:).
I just wanted to know that if their exam is just based on definitions MCQs only?
Any information is appreciated!
