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?

now I am looking for a job. Almost all of the jobs require a CISSP,
but you cannot get it without atleast 3 years experience. I did hear
that even without an experience you can pass the CISSP, but you will
not get the certification and then you can go to the employer and tell
him that you passed the CISSP. Anyone have any views or any experience
with it?
