4-28-2022, I passed the exam. For me, this was a solid step towards much more. My best advice for anyone on this journey: Stay focused and make sure you understand the concepts. That is going to be the most beneficial to your success on the exam. Saving Changes...
While it is fresh in your memory, can you share any feedback about the exam-taking process without going into specifics on any of the questions themselves to help other folks who are looking at taking the exam in the near term?
Congratulations Danielle.
Kindly share more light on best material to use and a bit explanation on the concept you mentioned.
Congratulations once again. Saving Changes...
Thank you Kiron. Also, thank you for the advice along the journey. It was very helpful.
While it is still fresh on my mind, I would say that it very important that you understand how to apply the concepts of Agile and Traditional. The questions are all situation-based and that is when the theory behind the concepts will come into play. There wasn't many formula questions, I recall there only being one. I took the exam at a center which was better for me. The center really helped me to focus and there was no distractions. The process was very smooth and when you enter the testing environment, it is very, very quiet. You will be provided headphones as well. I would advise anyone taking the exam to TAKE THE BREAKS!!! Do not skip them. My studying regimen was a combination of Andrew Ramdayal PMP test prep booklet , PMPBOK ,version 6, youtube videos from Andrew Ramdayal, and PMI Study Hall. I would also advise not to memorize the ITTOS, Knowledge Areas, or process groups. I spent so much time trying to memorize them verbatim and it was not necessary. However, you must thoroughly understand them. I would say take as many full length practice tests as possible once you are closer to your exam date. That will prepare you for the real exam and help you to build the stamina. I did utilize the entire 4 hours but try not to look at the time which is displayed at the top of the screen. I read each question twice before looking at the options for the answers. Do not spend too much time on a question. You can mark it for review. After the first 60 questions, it will bring you back to the questions you have marked for review. You will not be able to take a break until you have finished the review. The computer will do this each time it is time for a break. I cannot stress how important it is to thoroughly read the questions and understand what is being asked. Also, please do not discouraged by the practice tests that are out there. There are so many and I was getting very discouraged because I could not get past a 75%. I passed this exam above domain in all three areas. Please let me know if anyone has any questions, I would be happy to help. One more thing: be resourceful. There is a wealth of information out there and it does not cost. Saving Changes...
