Few questions. Can you explain me how many hours you spent average.. I read PMP Book in July and now again starting the journey.. I have scheduled my exam on Nov 8th and have a month time to prepare.. Will that be sufficient?

Hi

      If you have read the PMBOK once, I suggest you test yourself using PMSTUDY or another online mock test..to check out your understanding of the material, then read Rita for your weak areas and finish all the chapter tests. If you are already scoring well, one month should do..provided you can spend atleast 3 hours everyday.

Hope this helps..All the best!
