Thanks a lot for this valuable information, I agree with you that it wort every penny you spent but unfortunately I scheduled my exam on 12/12 and I didn't get any notification about that test driver neither from PMI nor from the center so I don't know how I will take it.?

Test Drive:
When you schedule your actual PMP test date, you will also receive information about taking a TEST drive.
Basically you pay $30 and schedule an appointment just like it was the test day... I scheduled mine for a Saturday two weeks before the actual exam.
It allowed me to drive to the testing center, do the actual check in process, go through the screening process, finger print scanning, filling out the paper work.
Then to actually go through the 15 min. tutorial on the PC. This allowed me to get use to the mouse, the environment, on board calculator and how to answer and mark questions.

So on the actual test date... I knew the procedure and could use most of the 15 minute tutorial to do a brain dump to paper...

At first I questioned if it was worth spending the $$$.
For me... worth every penny.

Bob,

Congratulations on passing the PMP exam. Thanks for posting your experience and lessons learned. I passed my exam on June 1st and much of your story is very similar to my experience! I only wish I had found, and had time to watch, the PM PrepCast videos before my exam. Thankfully I found the PM Exam Simulator which was critical to my success. As you know the PMBOK guide doesn't get any "wetter" after reading it multiple times.

Cheers,

Mark
