Depends on your confident level. my advise is that take the exam before Jan 2023 because exam might be changed new version and your exam stock might not be valid.

This all depends on you, your level of confidence, experience and so on. On aerage, candidates take between 3 to 6 months to prepare. The on demand course on its own is not enough.

It depends on your experiences, level of knowledge and so on. Definitely, the course itself is not enough!

If we factor in my CAPM, I took about 5 months to prepare for my PMP:
April12 to May 3: Project Management Basics - An Official PMI Online Course
May 3 to June 11: Pocket Prep study aid, Reading PMBOK 6 other CAPM exam study prep
June 11: CAPM exam, passed Above Target overall
June 11 to August 27: Pocket Prep study aid, Reread PMBOK 6, Read PMBOK 7 twice, Read Agile Practice Guide twice, utilised PMI Study Hall Basic, had access to Skillsoft's PMP prep courses and exams, used other free mock exams online, read a lot of articles on this site, played PM Challenge
August 27: Wrote PMP Exam and passed Above Target in all 3 domain. I felt I did better on the PMP exam than I did on the CAPM.

I took Skillsoft courses and joined a study group. I read the PMBOK Guide a few times. All that took about six months.
