Exam results are a fact of life for students everywhere, sparking happiness or despair, but seldom making headlines. Until Benjamin Huber’s results, that is.
Huber scored the world’s highest mark on the internationally recognized Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) exam, a credential often required of professionals in IT security management. Huber, an HKUST Information Systems undergraduate, sat the four-hour exam infamous for its high failure rate in 2014.
Despite lack of prior work experience, I was fortunate to have ideal circumstances to prepare for the exam: highly experienced professors, a supportive department, a tailored ISACA (the association that gives the exam) curriculum, a close group of like-minded peers, and being a full-time student.”
