Passed the CIPP/E
Hi! I would like to share one of the great news that happened to me. I just passed the CIPP/E exam
I hope this post would help those who will be taking the exam in the future.
For context, I bought the exam at the end of April. During the first week after buying the exam, I was able to finish 60 pages of Ustaran book. However, due to work and looking for other opportunities, I was not able to continue studying. I was postponing it since I was not in the proper headspace.
But then, around end of July, I decided to book my exam date to force myself to commit to it, afterwards, I was able to finish first reading by first week of august. Then I do a second reading of the book before taking the exam.
I would say, for those who are generally new to data privacy like me, the youtube videos providing summary of each articles were helpful. Another tip would be answering sample questions on the internet, then determine your weakness points. ChatGPT is also a nice companion to ask for topics you are confused about. Reading the GDPR itself is also a must.
Generally I would say that the exam was difficult, and thought I would fail. Anyway, goodluck to future takers!
