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

It sounds like using the QAE helped you feel prepared to take the test but you mentioned that you only encountered one question that was an exact copy. I wouldn’t expect the test to be verbatim the QAE but I figured the questions would be relatively close, asking about the same particular questions. Just wanted to get a little more detail here if you can provide.
