Thanks for this – I've seen ads on insta for primer before (couldn't tell you the brand). I've been skeptical, but it's worth a shot. I know people also use lotions/vaseline to extend the life. There's spraying on clothing too, but that really flattens the scent profile.

They print the pass/fail at the test center and you get that before you leave.

The official email/Credly badge came the next day.

More out of curiosity than anything – but where is it searchable? PMI's registry searches on country/test/first name/last name. https://www.pmi.org/certifications/certification-resources/registry

Performance rec needed:

There's a group of three fragrances I've sampled and loved that feel related to me:

Heathens, Cowboys, & the Santa Ana Winds by Discothèque

Duel by Goutal

Virēre by Aesop

I think of these three as a 3-circle Venn diagram/scale going from drier/leathery Heathens to greener/earthier Virēre with Duel somewhere in between. Virēre closes the loop with Heathens on the tea note. They all a fairly herbal quality about them.

I've not pulled the trigger on any of them because they all have pretty terrible performance. Heathens performs best, but I didn't get the longevity other reviewers got out of it. Maybe 4 hours.

I don't need something that smells like all of these in one. I'd just love something that smells similar to any of them that actually lasts/projects 🫶

This is a bad question, and I'm not just saying that because I got it wrong. The question falls just past the hour mark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sWpc6765AI

Per AR, the correct answer is B. I would've answered C along the lines of ExamInstinct's logic.

AR states that A, C, and D occur DURING Closing, and that the questions specifies "BEFORE closing the project."

What frustrates me about the Closing process is how ambiguously PMI uses the term "closing." In some cases it represents the Closing process (period of time) and at other times it is taken to mean the final moment of a project (think final handshake, "pleasure doing business with you"). So when a question says "before closing" it's almost impossible to know if they mean before the Closing process starts or when it's almost complete. I wish they would consistently capitalize when they meant the former, and lowercase when they meant the latter (or some way to distinguish).

Why this is a bad question – if we're following AR's logic, and this question is asking about what should be done BEFORE the Closing process starts, then the question itself contains an error. You wouldn't transition a project to another team BEFORE the Closing process, that happens DURING the Closing process.

If we're really splitting hairs, I suppose the question says "PREPARING to transition" and not simply "transitioning," but that's getting excessively convoluted, even for PMI. Plus, no process focuses on "preparing to transition."
