For me, this is somehow the order of exams difficulties:

1) PfMP and CBAP
2) PMP
3) PSM II and PSPO II
3) PMI-ACP
4) PMI-PBA

You can find all my lessons learned for each exam in my blog: The Big Time.

Scrum.org Professional Scrum Master PSM III. 34 questions in 2 hours, comprised of essay and multiple choice. You'll need an 85 to pass. Hands down the hardest exam in the Agile space.
Congratulations, on PSM.

Hi Rami,

I am in the process of submitting a PgMP application and writing the exam in 2022. You mentioned that you have a blog, any tips for writing the PgMP application and where to get study material for it? I find it hard finding online material.

This is the link to my blog which should answer the majority of your questions:

https://www.projectmanagement.com/blogs/311683/the-big-time

As for the application, it is unique from one person to another but one advise I can give you is that upon answering the five Summary Statement questions at the end of the application, be as descriptive as you can and refer to terminologies from the PgMP guide as the expert panel will mainly be reviewing those summary statements.

Good Luck.
