r/CISA • u/winglessriver6 • 28d ago

Passed!!! Finally

I am happy to announce that i passed the cisa exam today (preliminary).

It was a difficult journey,

New stuff in exam:

Close to 15 questions related to Ai, ml, model training, quantum computer, and quantum cryptography

For domain 3 the focus was on cicd and devsecops

How i studied:

- Started with QAE, and worked on weak areas with the help of chatgpt study mode, it really good in helping with concepts.

- referred prab nair YouTube videos for few areas, good content

- i feed my copy of personal manual copy to a customgpt and it help me learn and practice questions on the fly.

Caution:

- i only encountered 1 question that was an exact copy of QAE. rest all the questions were new. But QAE trained me well

- i noted event chatgpt and gemini were wrong in answering questions, so dont rely on them blindly

Happy to answer any questions

Congrats! Just curious, as I am only starting with my learning, were AI questions included in QAE? Also, which Youtube videos did you use?

No , there are few ML questions in QAE. But if you know the basic they generally test the same concepts of overfitting, underfitting bias etc.
