Welcome to the CISSP-Bootcamp wiki!
Anecdotal passes by "your friend" or a "person you met" are single data points. Well-meaning-trusted but miss informed. You need someone who has collected data for 1000's of students who have passed and failed. This plan is the summary of that data and my training for the past 20 years. Simply: follow my plan, you will pass. This plan is 8 hours of my 50 hour course. In my full 50 hour class all 50 major topics are covered AND the for each loop below has more components. You do not need me after you learn and apply the plan. You do need to work the plan for 60-120 hours to pass.
I have a plan. Follow the plan. You will pass.

Read those readings from O'Reilly and NIST. Please do not buy/read: *"all in one books"- they are not. *"official guides" - they are not.
- again someone will sell you a left nostril inhaler with your state motto - but they are about the $$$$
If you need one book it's going to be very large and from many authors because the CISSP is about management.
