Hi,

Am I allowed to have an external monitor connected to my laptop with CLOSED LID, external webcam, keyboard and mouse?

The pearsonVue tip page mentions that as an option under "make sure you have the right equipment" section (https://home.pearsonvue.com/onvue-tips?ot=collapse484) that I went from PMI page , but I wanted to clarify if this is allowed as it's still a SINGLE monitor?

Thanks in Advance!

Based on some of the feedback in this thread I'd started a while back (https://www.projectmanagement.com/discussi...line-PMP-exam), multiple monitors are not permitted.

I don't think you will be allowed, as I was asked to remove the external USB.

All the best for your upcoming exam ! I recently received my PMP credentials and no external monitors are allowed. Suggest you keep the laptop and mouse as the standard set up. Hope this is helpful.
