Wanted to share with you all my strategy is passing the PMP exam this past Tuesday, December 29 on my first attempt with above target in all areas!
First off I want to thank OSP international since I passed both the PMI-ACP back in January ‘20 and now the PMP in December of ‘20 both on my first try. And for others please believe me when I tell you that when it came to college and business school entrance exams it 1) did not come easy for me nor 2) did I score high. But the strategy below worked for me.
My strategy was the same for both. See below.
1) started watching the videos thePM-Prep Cast over a couple of months.
2) then at one month before the exam I started hitting Rita’s PMP exam prep book reading a chapter and then doing the end of the chapter qbank.
3) I then did a focused qbank from OSP just on that chapter (20 questions at a time)I thought the OSP questions were harder than Rita’s end of chapter questions. But they helped really solidify the nuances. For every question I reviewed the explanation of why I got the question right and why I got it wrong.
4) after going through Rita’s book, her exam questions and also OSP focus d chapter question , I did an additional 200 qbank questions across all topics. In total i did nearly 800 qbank questions.
