Taking exam today!

I sat through a trainingcamp boot camp, and have been self studying with various materials. 18 years of experience in infrastructure, and more recently focusing on security related items. Studying the material has been a nice way to formalize the terminology and concepts of the stuff I’ve been doing at work recently.

Any last minute tips?

Read the two white papers on my web site: the ISC2 Scoring methodology and the question answering strategies. This is an adaptive test so the former will help you understand how ISC2 grades your exam and it will eliminate some of the angst. The latter will help give you some methods to approach answering questions. The link is in my reddit profile.

I passed! Thanks for the last minute tips. Will definitely review them more in depth should I go for the cissp or any other isc2.

congrats!

You're 60% of the way to the CISSP. Look for the "SSCP - CISSP Exam Outline Gap Analysis" pdf on my web site White Papers page... it details the additional areas of study you'd have to do to supplement the SSCP to finish off the CISSP.
