Hello Guys,

3 months back when i started following this forum since then I always wanted to write my own LL. I guess that is a general feeling for all the PMP aspirants here at this forum.

Iam not going to say whether the test is difficult or easy because that depends on person to person and the kind of preparation he/she has done.

Though I would add one thing here that you need to be pretty serious about this exam, This exam will test the application of your knowledge so when you are going through TTs or Outputs try to visualise it in a real scenario... because that is what you all will be tested.

I took no paid Mock test just general ones like oliver,PMStudy, Exam central, PMPforsure, Head First and questions from Christopher Scordo. I scored from 69 to 87 over the period of time in the above mentioned mocks.

From my experience , I can tell you that during the exam donot get nervous while answering as you will get few question that you wont know just take a good guess and move forward because you will find easier ones as well.

I completed my 200 questions in 2:50 hours and marked only 7 questions and after reviewing these 7 marked questions I sequentially reviewed questions 1 to 125 till i ran out of time. After that I saw the elusive congratulations on screen :), I passed with 4p and 1MP.

PMP was a rollercoster ride of emotions from the moment I started preparing for it and it ended on a high note. I can tell you all, that the feeling you get after seeing that Congratulations message is amazing, We all should feel it once :)

Best of luck for all the aspirants.

Thank you Danny, Yes its

Thank you Danny, Yes its like a huge block of weight off my chest, Iam really loving it!!

As far as speed is concern, i practiced the same strategy in mock so it worked for me because i got time to review 125 questions and I changed around 10-12 answers in the second review, However I would not advice to follow this strategy unless and until one has prepared like this in multiple mock tests. Key is to give ample time while reading the question...

I wish you all the best for PMP and let us all know about your success soon.
