Am I ready

Submitted by sgadewar on Thu, 02/14/2013 - 13:45

I am taking exam on this saturday, it makes me worry because of scores on Simpli learn and PMPforsure, wanted to check opinions and thoughts for last minute preparation.

My scores so far are

Headfirst Scored = 86% (20 days back)

Tech360 = 85% (30 days back) 

PMSTUDY 1 = 56% (ist attempt 6 months back while preparing for exam) second try 82% ( 5 days back)

PMSTUDY 2 = 77% ( 3 days back)

PMfast track on an avergae 82% in all knowledge area (7 days back) 

PMPforSure 73% (Yesterday)

Simplilearn 76% (yesterday)

 

I am worried on last 2 scores which I gave yesterday making me nervous as these are border line scores. Anyhow it is too late I am going to go for exam and not going to try any other mock test to ensure I further dont shatter my confidence. Any last minute suggestions opinion thoughts are welcome over here

 Hi, I guess by now you have discovered your knowledge gaps from the various mock tests.  Just read the highlighted gaps on the PMBOK and try a few more tests like PMZilla and PMStudy 3/4 if possible. I am confident you will pass based on your present performance. All the best!.

 Thanks for the confidence booster, yeah I went low on Initiation phase, too much confused about those 3 roles Project manager/ Programm manager/ Portfolio manager and then what does the department of PMO does especially was surprised to know that they also handle shared resources which was surprise for me. I was under impression that they only provide guidelines forms, training etc etc. never till this fact. Plus made few silly mistakes on Closing too and got too much confused with close project and what is the first activity in closing and what is the last is it resource release or contract closure or archive document.

Anyhow I got the week points and still studying.

thanks again

Dear Sgadewar


You are doing so good man. Not sure why are you worried for, anything 70% in Pmpforsure is like 3P and even 76% in Simplilearn is a good score. 82% in Rita FT ---- brilliant. Why are you worried for? Share the good news soon!


Thanks & Regards,
Mohit Kumar

Yes that is correct, it is indeed a great feeling and your brain is full of those concepts and scenario based questions and feel like going back to those secnarios in rela life and try to apply them

I can understand and I feel one of the main reasons is that you are preparing exclusively for the test for the 4 days in PMstudy.The bootcamp helps a great deal.
