Failed all BP

Wow.

That was without a doubt the hardest exam I have ever taken. I read the PMBOK 3 times over.. Thought I got RITA exam prep down.

But those questions were insane. And I thought I did great too! I had a few questions I remembered and looked up when I got back to the car and I assume I got them right but the questions and most importantly, the answers were just way different than I thought they would be.

A good amount of the questions, all four seemed like they were the right answer.

I used all 4 hours too. Now I know what to expect. I know how I need to change my study strategy and here before Jan 11 I should be good to go.

Unless it's easier after Jan 11. I need to check into that.

I did all the major mock exams and scored good on them all but, just, wow. All I can say.

I thought I would have at least had several MPs but no.

To the re-take!

I too got the same result. Agian, I've been preparing for the exam with different study plan strategy

The funny / sad part in all this.. is when I got home.. I found a pmp mock exam. on a website I didnt even find till I got home, that had questions that closely resembeled what I just tooK!

Just forget abt it & relax for week or month.

Than start again reading, you just need max 1-2 months to retake the exam.

Since you know the exam pattern & familiar with it.

You can email me for any help.

I failed the exam too. I am giving myself some time off before sitting the exam again in Dec before they change the pattern. I can just say that you must look at where you could have gone wrong or see whether it was just a unlucky day. For me I felt that although I was prepared I was very distracted on the day and thus didnt pass and got BP too.

Good luck
