Most accurate practice exams for CISSP

[georgerobert]

Hello everyone,

I have my CISSP exam scheduled for the end of the month using the new CAT format (fully aware of that so not too concerned - fatal last words I know!).  However I was wondering, based on the experiences of those who have passed, what the best and most accurate practice exams are?

I have used:

1) Questions that came with the Official CISSP Study guide Book

2) Questions that came with an online course I bought (uCertify based on the above book with more questions added)

3) Pocket prep CISSP iPhone App

4) CISSP Practice Questions iPhone App

I have searched the forum here but could not find a definitive list.

Thanks in advance

I heard BOSON was pretty good. Also if you buy CISSP All in One by Sharon Harris there are 1000's of questions that come with the purchase to help you prepare.

All the questions that you will see on the exam are in

(NO, OF COURSE NOT!!!)

However, a number of people have noted that

Nope.

And when I was facilitating seminars, I would tell candidates that, while Harris'
book was the most readable, I refused to answer any question that started out
"Shon Harris says ..."

(Having reviewed a great deal of the security literature, it was hilarious, reviewing
the first edition of the All-in-1, to find sentences, paragraphs, and sometimes
whole pages where I could identify the orginal sources she lifted them from.

have a habit of "explaining" things that she didn't actually understand ...)

I achieved CISSP exam success beyond my expectations! This was all possible due to Validitexams and its resources! Thanks

Hello,

Congratulations on scheduling your CISSP exam! It sounds like you're well-prepared with the resources you've been using.

From my experience and feedback from others, here's a list of some of the best and most accurate practice exams:

Official CISSP Study Guide Book: As you mentioned, the questions from this guide are highly recommended since they align well with the actual exam content.

Certslab CISSP Practice Exams: Certslab offers a range of practice questions and mock exams that are highly regarded for their accuracy and comprehensive coverage of the CISSP domains.

uCertify CISSP Course: Since you’re already using this, you're on the right track. The additional questions are a great way to reinforce your knowledge.

Pocket Prep and CISSP Practice Questions Apps: These are excellent for on-the-go practice, though the question quality can vary.

Additionally, forums like Reddit and the TechExams community often have valuable insights and recommendations from those who have recently passed the exam.

Best of luck with your preparation, and I’m sure you'll do great!
