Passed CC @ 100 questions

​I finally did it! I passed the CC exam today on my second attempt, and honestly, the relief is huge.

​I’ve been on this journey since late November. I took my first shot back in February 2026 and didn't make it, but I didn't let that stop me.

Today, I took the exam. The exam ended at 100 questions and took me about 98 minutes. I was actually surprised when it ended right at 100!

​I had been studying from following study resources: ​Official ISC2 Free Training, ​Mike Chapple’s LinkedIn Learning course and​Paulo Carreira’s Udemy practice tests. However, Chatgpt and Gemini too helped me a lot.

My biggest takeaway: The wording is no joke. It was much trickier than I expected. My best advice is to read EVERY answer and read the full question twice before clicking. There were several times I almost fell for a trap because I didn't read carefully enough.

​I honestly wasn't 100% sure I had passed when I hit submit, but I'm so glad the hard work paid off. Good luck to everyone currently studying!
