this is 1/2 star but I didn't know how to create a lower ranking. to list my cert background in order, security+, ceh, project+, cissp, cisa. all tests were pass on first attempt. that being said, THIS IS MORE THAN LIKELY THE WORST BOOK I'VE EVER USED FOR A TEST. I actually did not even finish reading it because it was so bad. the authors BABBLE just to add pages to the book on items that would great if I was doing the pmp but ARE NOT PART OF THE CISA. take a look at the authors certs and you'll ...

Used this book based on a co-worker recommendation. No, this was not the only thing used; I also used ISACA's test bank to successfully get past this exam - after several attempts. Previously, I attended a study group and went through ISACA's online review course and still failed!

I used this in combination with the Official questions and answers book. Passed the exam with a fair margin. If you do not have an IT audit background, I would not try to "test first".

I read all the chapters except the networking chapter - it appears to be only a very small ... Read More

The title of the review says it all. I am on a budget, and after reading lots of reviews on study guides, I selected this one. I made the most of this book. I read it completely through and followed the author's advice on which sections to re-review based on my background. I did the questions at the end of each chapter and I did every test question on the included CD. I was thorough, and sometimes it was thoroughly boring, but I was rewarded for the effort because the way the exam questions are ... Read More
