Dear Friends,
I wanted to share my success and thank all the individuals for sharing their experiences and study techniques.
Total Prep time- 6 Weeks
Week 1-2
Read PMBOK (horrible and dry) also read The Agile Guide
Took time to digest what I read.
Week 3-4
Joined Udemy PMP Prep Course for the 35 hours of Educational credits.
Joined PM Prepcast - Don’t think twice about this, the best resource to mimic the exam scenarios.
**Mr. Cornelius Fichtner and team - thank you, you are masters at your craft and helped shape my career.
Weeks 4-6
Continued with the Udemy Course
Watch Vargas PMP youtube video on ITTOS.
Took Prepcast Exams until I hit the threshold of questions 2000.
Mock Exam 1 - 52%, retest: 82%
Mock Exam 2 - 61%, retest 84%
Mock Exam 3 - 64% - retest 85%
Had no real time for full exams so I just took 90 questions whenever possible. I scheduled my exam when I hit 74%.
Exam Day:
· Got a good night’s sleep
· Reviewed the Agile Guide
· Showed up early to testing site and waited for 1 hour ( the battle was already lost inside my mind)
The Exam
· All Situational Based, 60-70% agile questions. The questions were wordy and required a read or reread.
· Take your breaks , its nice to get a breather.
· Think before you Act and remember you are a Servant Leader.
