Answer / mazen
Being a CCNA is of a little advantage, however more time
should spent on the study of the martial.
In my openion having a deep knowledge of auditing is not the
key, the key is to have a problem solving mind and analysis.
do more reading of the CISA manual and Google the things you
find difficult, then spare a enough time for the CISA
questions books or database from ISACA.
I believe this is one of the good ways to gain knowledge and
pass Insha'Allah... :)
Good luck...
