Reviews

[Dolf van der Haven · Rating 2 out of 5]

I am a bit suspicious about this book, given that the previous release had twice as many pages. Can the whole CRISC exam materials be summarised in a mere 182 pages?
Apart from this, the book has a lot of inconsistencies and inaccuracies. It seems a bit rushed and superficial.
I'll update this review after I have sat the exam and, hopefully, passed it!

Update: I passed the exam, but not thanks to this book. I had to rely on my practical experience. The exam turns out to be fairly technical and practically oriented, whereas the book is purely theoretical. Use the book to get a theoretical foundation, but add to it with your experience and common sense. Only then will you pass the exam.
