Course Overview
Learn CISSP exam secrets with 50+ real question walkthroughs to beat tricky traps, manage anxiety, & pass confidently.
Most CISSP candidates don’t fail because they lack knowledge.
They fail because they misread tricky questions, fall for exam traps, or panic under pressure.
This course fixes that.
The CISSP Exam Mindset course teaches you the actual psychology of the CISSP exam.
You’ll master how to think like the test-makers, outsmart traps, and make confident, risk-based decisions under pressure.
And, you’ll get 50+ exam question walkthroughs throughout the course showing you exactly how to apply these strategies in real CISSP scenarios.
Instead of memorizing endless technical details, you’ll learn strategic exam-taking skills that directly impact your score.
By shifting your approach to focus on mindset, strategy, and exam psychology, you’ll finally stop second-guessing yourself and start choosing the best answers with clarity and confidence.
This course is not a full CISSP training program. It’s designed to complement your study materials by giving you the strategic edge most candidates miss: the mental frameworks and exam tactics that separate those who fail from those who pass.

This is the best supplemental course I've purchased to help prepare me for the CISSP. The mindset shift is by far the most challenging part if you've been in the industry from a technical aspect. Lesson by lesson, I'm gaining the confidence and assurance to pass. The examples are great. Very simple and straight to the point. Thank you in ADVANCE FOR THE SAUCE!!! - (Quantaye I., 5 stars)

Great set of questions and Brandon does a great job explaining how to approach those questions. I still get confused where sometimes Awareness and Training is the best answer but in another question, it may not be... I will try to do my best during the exam. Good luck everyone.
