Need inputs for attempting CIS-CSM and CIS-HRSD exams

[Snehal13]

As the newer version is around the corner, should I wait until the official release and then give CIS-CSM and CIS-HRSD exams or attempt then before the new ServiceNow release ?

What is the best approach given the window time for further delta exams if I pass them ?

hi @Snehal13 

Yes, you can schedule the CIS-CSM and CIS-HRSD exams for the first week of September. However,a new version is released, it’s advisable to take the exams before the Blackout Window (before August 13) to ensure you are tested on the current version. This will help you avoid any potential changes to the exam content due to the new release. After passing the exams, you can then complete any required delta exams to stay updated with the new version.

Hi there,

Thats really up to you!

Do you want to do the exam really quickly, now? Or can you wait a bit?

From content perspective, yes the exam will be on the newer version. Though what this really means: a few questions will be updated/replaced/added. From experience and reading answers on the community, that is max. 5 questions on the whole exam! 5!

And Washington is already out for 4 months now. I assume you are also working on Washington release? 

So it hardly makes any difference. The choice is really up to you to make.
