Need Help Choosing CISSP Study Materials: Feeling Lost and Overwhelmed
Hello, I’m feeling a bit lost regarding the materials I need to prepare for the CISSP certification. I want to get certified within a reasonable timeframe, but I don’t know where to start. Many people recommend different books, videos, and other resources, and I’d like something clear and focused to guide me. I’m looking for up-to-date materials that will give me what I need to prepare effectively without being excessive. A practical Study Guide seems like a good fit, but I’d appreciate your recommendations on what to use. Also, since I’m based in Europe, resources from the U.S. tend to be much more expensive for me. Could you suggest options that are accessible for someone living in Europe? Thank you so much for your help! Best regards.

@Deepu Thomas That's exactly what I’m struggling with too—everyone recommends so many different resources, but I never know which one to choose or which one I actually need without overwhelming myself with content. For example, from the list you shared, if I watch all the videos for each domain from MindMap, take notes, then read CISSP for Dummies, and finish with practice questions, would that be a good approach? Are both Destination CISSP and CISSP for Dummies up-to-date with the latest content? It’s crazy with so much material and so many updates to keep track of. It’s hard to figure out where to start, what order to follow, and which materials are actually current. Thanks!

This is the strategy I have decided to go with: 1) Watch - CISSP Exam Cram Full Course (All 8 Domains) - Good for 2024 exam! By Pete Zerger 2) Read - Destination CISSP: A Concise Guide by Rob Witcher 3) Exam Prep APP - exam questions 4) Quantum Exams - exam questions 5) Pocket Prep - exam questions Do you think this would be sufficient to cover and pass the CISSP exam? I’ve been reading that the OSG book is also highly recommended, but I’ve heard it can be difficult to follow. However, the questions at the end of each domain seem to be helpful for evaluating your understanding. Purchasing the OSG book would add another expense on top of Destination CISSP. Would you recommend it, or is my current plan sufficient? I am open to getting the OSG or another alternative if necessary, but I would like to keep costs reasonable while ensuring I have a solid study plan. Thank you for your guidance!
