Earlier this week, I completed my PMP Certification at first attempt. I was AT in all areas and scored high in almost 90% of Objectives as well.
Big part of this result was due to PM Prepcast Simulator.
Thanks to Cornelius & team for putting this amazing tool together. The only difference I found in the main exam was the option of Highlighting text, all other features were very similar to the one available in PM Prepcast.
I relied on the following for my preparation:
1) Book by Joseph Phillips (read it at least a couple of times)
2) PMBOK 6th edition - read this thrice. It was not as difficult as I initially thought to study the PMBOK
3) Multiple free resources online (openpm, PM Study Circle, Oliver Lehmann, Edwel Programs)
4) PMI Mock Exam - not sure if this is available for all or only for those who take membership
5) Simulator exams from PM Prepcast - took 7 of them, scored 90% on average across all exams. This gave me a lot of confidence going into the final exam.
Thanks again to Cornelius and team
