My exam is scheduled for next week and I'm feeling pretty good about my prospects. For the last 10 days, I've been taking practice tests using Study Hall and the exam simulator provided by Edwel. I am putting in about 2 hours per day reviewing the course materials. My percentile in Study Hall is 72%. My SH scores are 69% in individual sections and 74% in all the tests.

My course instructor was really good but he suggests that I should be scoring right around 80% in Study Hall to have everything nailed down. Any suggestions on how to get my scores just a little higher in Study Hall?

Thanks for any suggestions you can provide.

Thomas, I highly recommend you purchase the Simulator Package through PM Prep Cast and practice as much as you can. This is a great simulator and resource for questions that mimic the real exam and will boost your confidence the more you practice. Hope this helps - Good Luck!

Thank you Rami. I will look into it. I’m finding Study Hall questions pretty close to what my Edwel instructor said to expect on the exam. But extra practice is always welcome.

Well, I'm happy to report that I took the exam yesterday and received my provisional results! Hooray! I have to give thanks and a very positive review of the Edwel PMP course and special thanks to my instructor Mark.I personally needed extra time for information to sink in and PMI Study Hall was very good in that regard. I found the questions from Study Hall and the exam simulator Edwel gave me to be pretty spot on. Coming at the exam from two different perspectives was really quite helpful and well worth the small price for Study Hall. The Edwel course manual and class handouts helped explain things in a digestible way. I would highly recommend making sure that you submit your PMI application and getting it approved before you take the boot camp (I also received guidance from Edwel on this). It'll just be one less thing to worry about after any class you take. Also be sure to take the practice quizzes available through PMI Study Hall to help you prep for the test especially if you haven't taken a standardized test in a while. They were super helpful. I'm happy with my decision to go with Study Hall and Edwel and, really happy with the results.

Thank you Rami. I appreciate your suggestions and help. I did utilize the Prep Cast 120 question sample exam. It was quite good and gave me a fresh perspective. I think that might be the big takeaway. Get multiple perspectives in your preparation for the exam. Thanks again!
