The exam was only full of situational qns and no EVA qns. got on target for Monitoring and Controlling domain, and above target on closing. The rest got need improvement. What would be your informed advise ? Saving Changes...

Sorry to hear that but don't feel discouraged. I suggest you revisit the areas where you scored low and study from the following resources:
1) Besides PMBOK, Rita Exam Prep Book
2) Simulation exams for RMC Fast Track or PM PrepCast. They both have exams by domain. Practice as much as you can and read all answers so you learn better.
Hope this helps. Good Luck.

Thank you for your feedback. I have already been using Master of Project Academy by Gulec Resit. How do you rate this book material ? Cldnt find topics like master scrum, Kanban, Sprint, etc.

i would like to thank you for your corporation and interaction
Sorry to hear about it. However, at the same time, I would ask you to take it in a positive way.
Please do the following:
- Try to understand your weak areas. Make a list of them and then focus on how to improve it.
- Don't study from too many books. Just stick to Rita Mulcahy and read it 3-4 times.
- Complete all the exercises in the book at least 2 times and focus on the gaps every time.
- There are lots of online simulators available. As per my personal suggestion, check the ones from Udemy. They are really good and will help you strengthen your weak areas.
- Don't overstudy. Take proper breaks and create a schedule.
Since you have already attended the exam, you will have an idea of the type of questions you will come across in the second attempt. Use it for your benefit.
Moreover, please set a date before preparing again. Make sure to check the dates of re-structuring for the PMI exam.

To be honest I never heard of this book before so I can't weigh-in on it. I still would suggest you consider the resources I recommended above.

Sorry to hear about that, however you can re-test again in June.
I would like to make my PMP on April-2020. I need to know the percentage of question for Agile ?.
The Exam after 1st of July -2020 will be also more and more difficult, thus why I need do it in the next 3 months.
Do you mean should I take the other simulator (rather than project Academy ) becuz I plan to take PMSpair simulator?
Please your thought on this issue?
Thanks in advance.

From what I gathered from many discussion threads, there aren't many Agile and EVM questions on this current version of the exam, but that's only what I hear and not sure how accurate it is.

I recommend Rita Mulcahy's certification prep, it's a good option to start acquiring PM Knowledge, and is updated to the 2021 exam. Visit this link:
