Dear All,

I cant describe how I feel.

I have spent the last 3 months studying everyday 6 hours at least. I was extremely determine to pass the exam and not allowing anything to disturb my study plan.

Today, I passed the Exam scoring 4M and 1MP. The feeling of achievement made me almost cry.

anyways, enough with the drama haha

Here is my advice to anyone who is preparing for the exam.
1) Read the PMBOK ( skim through it the first time).
2)Read Rita ( exteremly helpful to help you understand the bigger picture of each knowledge area)
3) Read Rita Again to fully understand each topic
4) focus on PMBOK since the exam is based on it. read it as many as you can.
5) Do not memorize the ITTO, instead understand how they work and why.
6) Practice as many mock exams as you can, in my case I truly believe PM Prepcast 9 exam bundle is sufficient and a MUST.

I read Rita 3 times and PMBOK 4 times.

It almost felt like I was using my tuition to answer the questions. I did not really follow a mechanism or a way of thinking to solve the questions. The answers came Naturally. I believe this is because I read the books so many times that the knowledge in the book became logical to me as opposed to following a structural approach.

Read the books as many times as you can, and you will pass. The PMP is not difficult if you truly understand what each knowledge area, processes are about.

Special Thank you for PM Prepcast, your questions have helped me ensure my success in the exam.
