Hi!

Do not lose heart!

I took the test yesterday and I nailed it.

I took all the CBK test and help to understand where I need to study deeper.

If you want to chat and talk how I made it, just tell me.

Regards.

Hi There: 

I have just joined the CCSP Study Group... 

I completed the CCSP online course in high standings, but most of the actual CCSP exam questions were "case study" type questions, and not simple factual questions.  There is a definite gap between the CCSP online course information (transcripts) and basic flashcard info versus the actual CCSP exam questions.      So I need to improve on the questions/answers that actually simulate the exam.  I recall that there were a series of network questions and port information questions that stumped me and I froze as I did not know these answers. Where is this information?    I can't find these details it in the CCSP texts that I have purchased.   I am studying from the ISC2 - CCSP Second Edition texts and I can't find this info / answers.  Can anyone help me out with the best reference for this information?   

On Dec 12th I wrote the CCSP exam.   Unfortunately, I did not pass, and I'm still "bummed out" from this experience.  I have to move forward, and make new and tighter plans for my 2nd attempt in Feb. in spite of this disappointing experience.  I journaled this experience so that I could learn from it and move forward to improve my knowledge base and expand on my cloud security information next time 'round.      

Any "words of wisdom", reference information, advice and/or better strategies would be appreciated.    

Regards, 

Heather

Hi Heather - I am in the same situation as I didn't pass the CCSP exam in August. I am interested in seeing if anyone would want to join an online studying session(s) to prep for it. My friend and I did this in 2022 for the CISSP certification, which helped and motivated me to push myself harder. I passed the CISSP exam on my 1st attempt.  

My goal for 2024 is both CCSP and CGRC. I did not reach my 2023 goal of getting my CCSP cert 😞
