Got my official certification email late last night.
Here's the story of me passing the test (it's not significantly different than anyone else). If you want to know how to pass the test, don't do what I did, follow the sticky.

I started studying for the CISA on the 11 of Jan after passing the CISSP.
I read the Sybex 4th edition cover to cover over the course of a week.
I used the ISACA CISA QAE and did about 50% of the total questions.
On 21 Jan I took the Test and Passed with 79%.
If you've just passed the CISSP I think this is a very viable method for passing the CISA.
My official results we're emailed on 3 Mar (a Sunday, 6 Business Days later), this was a very long wait, unlike the CISSP I was not given an initial Pass/Fail print out, there was a preliminary result displayed after completing the test. It's a hard conversation to have with your boss "Oh yah I passed but I can't show you anything that b

Preliminary Pass today, although it was a bit of a technical horror show at the facility I took the test.
I did not get a print out with the preliminary pass, instead I just got a screen with the info on it.
How quickly are people getting the "offical email?" I know they say "within 10 business days" but is that a real thing? It took 24 hours for me to get the CISSP email notification. Also what about the certification process?
After I fill out the work history information and send it in what is a realistic turnaround to being officially certified? Does anyone know when you're allowed to officially claim certification?

Today I passed the CISSP in 90 minutes with 100 questions.

First, the sticky is a great resource and is probably much better for you than the following. If you're just asking yourself "how should I get ready for the CISSP" stop reading and go here -> https://www.reddit.com/r/cissp/comments/al8kep/cissp_16week_study_guide_resources_and_links_to/ that should be the gold standard. The below is just my particular bit.

I have more than 10 years of experience, primarily in GRC, Enterprise Architecture, and Assessments. I wanted the cert to increase my consulting opportunities. I found the test almost entirely in my wheelhouse. YMMV.

I spent about 6 months preparing for the test, alt
