    Conquering the SSCP Exam!

    Great experience. I do like how ISC2 structures their exams. 125 questions with 3 hours. That is more than enough time. Each vendor presents value in different ways. In the end, it is the value that you grab to further your knowledge, career path and work ethics.

    Conquering the SSCP Exam!

    Hello! Very good experience both with the exam and the testing center. The exam was 125 questions with 3 hours. I had plenty of time. Some of the questions were worded in a way that made you second guess yourself. That was my only part of the exam that bothered me. But that is with all exams! LOL

    *** Passed 009...We Need To Talk ***

    Hello! Yes, the first 6 questions were PBQs with each question entailing multiple steps. I became confused with them, due to time pressure. From my perspective (who teaches Network+), have a strong focus on the multiple choice questions to offset the point loss from the PBQs. Let's keep in...
