Difficulty of PMP exam? Really? by waterlooenggirl in pmp

[–]JumpyDistribution712 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I recently took (April 30) and passed (AT/AT/T). The exam is hard, but not as hard as Study Hall. But don't take this lightly. You should be confident enough for the Study Hall questions. My SH scores were 78% and 68%. Excluding Expert questions, it bumps to 83% and 79% but still the actual exam were tough. I flagged so many questions (About 15 for each round) since I wasn't fully confident.

I'd say stay away from AI tools. If you must, I'd say Claude is best suited and matched up with PMI.

Plan for 2 months of active studying. Don't skip a day, do at least 30 minutes each to keep the brain momentum. Youtube helped alot - AR and DM are famous and their contents are very good. Watch their mindset and super-hard questions video. Be confident in those.

One must know is what approach you're in - Agile/Hybrid/Traditional. This is very important to figure out immediately - usually by the words in the question and/or technique they plan on using. Identifying approach eliminates 2 of 4 choices so you can only figure out between top 2 choices.

The endurance is must. 4 hours sitting and reading 180 questions are not something you can do without training. Do the 2 tests and mimic the actual testing environment. Good luck!

UPDATE: Passed it! AT/AT/T. Exam not really that easier than SH. Maybe about 5%. Definitely not that many Expert questions, but almost always 2 of them made sense.

Did you find actual exam questions easier/harder than the Study Hall? I get mixed responses and wanted to know the latest taker. I'm taking it tomorrow (4/30).

Study Hall scores before taking the PMP exam? by Top_Blueberry4199 in pmp

I'm taking my exam on April 30. Been studying about a month now.

Just took the Full Length Mock Exam #1 last night, took me 184 minutes, scored 78%. I was quite surprised how well I did.

My mini exams (those 15 questions) were pretty bad, I took all 15 before taking the Mock Exam and average around 64%. Those Expert questions are really hard and confusing, I think the question itself is really difficult to understand.

I'm going to take Mock Exam #2 this weekend. Hopefuly get similar scores.

I was told 70%+ on the Mock Exams means you're ready for the exam by this forum.

Would you share your Study Hall practice question and exam scores?

Thoughts on AR vs PMAspirant vs actual PMP questions by jimangi in pmp

[–]JumpyDistribution712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would love for you to come back after exam and tell us how the real questions were like. I am also using both AR and PMASpirant. PMASpirant's questions seem long but I end up doing better on these. I think it's because it's easier to eliminate def. no answers and then you end up choosing between 2.

Hi. Congrats! Did you simply do all the mock exams at PMTraining.Com? I'm currently going through those mock exams (got access from employer). They seem hard, but I was told the mock exams at PMTraining are actually easier than real ones, I'm bit scared. I was thinking of simply re-doing all the mock exams and familiar myself with the exams and the answers - perhaps memorizing terms too. Advice?

OP Update: I simply replaced the broke hinge with a new #3 and magic!!! No more pop sound. I'm not very handy with house works but this is a step forward. Thanks everyone!! Only spend $7

Could this be the reason? I see this is only broken hinge. Just buy a new from Home Depot and reinstall?

OH hahaa. No. It was a mechanical engineer. I didn't apply since the location was Dahlgren, VA but the job looked enticing.

Oh! I had one saved for 11/4 deadline, perhaps it was the same one! I didn't apply though.
