Should I take the current CISSP Exam or Updated Exam?

MrWilliamKim — Tue, 27 Feb 2024 00:34:24 GMT

I want to take advantage of the take 2 special but I don't think I have enough time to study for the exam before March 31st. Should I wait until the new exam so I am more prepared?

Take the CISSP after you’ve studied properly for it. Whilst the exam content may change, a lot of it is principles and it won’t change that much. Do look at old/new exam guide outlines and thoroughly, and lots of reading of an up to date text book.

Will the exam questions be different? from the 2021 version?
