I passed the CISSP examination in NYC last month and used this book as part of my practice drills. I mainly used the practice CD. The book itself is the practice CD in paper form. The questions Gregg asks are specific, yet challenging, and push your level of understanding of the 10 domains. The CD engine works fine, but the "mark" feature had a few issues at the end of a quiz. Overall, I believe that this CD isolated my weakness very well in relation to other quiz engines, so I knew exactly what I needed to spend more time on. The questions on calculating ALE and SLE were useful and applicable in a real world sense. Combine this book with Tittel, Harris and ISC2 study guides and you should really have a command of the material.

I used this book along with several other texts and practice exams to prepare for the exam. I also used the cccure website. Clement DuPuis runs the site and was the editor of this book which was a factor in my decision to buy. I passed the exam so I am happy with the end result.

This book is a great way to become familiar with the question types, wording and structure for the CISSP exam. It is a great last minute review and mind calmer. The multiple formats (book and CD) allow for flexibility during study time.

I used this book to help prepare for my CISSP exam. The questions are good (I found a few minor mistakes), but they don't cover all of the content that is on the exam. The term that is often quoted about this exam is: "The CISSP is one mile wide but only one inch deep." This book is about one-half mile wide. I recommend the book, but a CISSP student will need an additional test bank to fill in the gaps missed by this book.

I purchased this book two weeks before my CISSP exam to practice, and after so many ridiculously-worded questions, mismatched questions and answers, and flat out inaccuracies, I took it back to the store and got a refund.

This is the worst possible study tool to acquire. I don't know how the content got by an editor; it will mislead you as to what the right answers are, confuse you by misrepresenting your actual knowledge, and generally do more harm than good.
