RE: CISSP without experience

Yes you can certainly take the exam. If you lack the pre-requisite
experience, the  you will be granted the title of Associate and upon
completion of the years of experience, your status will change to full
CISSP.

I too am intrested in the same & facing the problem that all the jobs
interviewed for required CISSP but i too lack experience. Can we just
take the CISSP and exam and pass it?

Anyone who has done it?
