A lot of people told me that the PgMP was easy if you have your PMP. I did not find that to be true. Looking for advice on how to approach preparing for PgMP exam? Saving Changes...

Joshua,
my PgMP was earned in 2014 with 500 hours effort and 6 months invested. I would say it was 3 times as difficult as the PMP. One reason was that there are different documents (ECO, Standard) that are not well aligned.
I would today approach it by looking for a trainer/coach that guides you in your learning: preparing the application, bootcamp to understand the principles, learning feedbacks and a good set of mockup questions. Will save some of the 500 hours.
Good luck. Happy to help. My best wishes to the 'lot of people'. Saving Changes...
