 Hi,

Passed PMI-SP. Following are my lessons learned. Thanks to all those who gave guidance / direction in the pmzilla forums.

Am already PMP and RMP, which helped me further.

1. Gave 4 weeks for preparation.with 2 hrs everyday and 1/2 day on weekends.

2. Referred PMBOK - Integration, Scope, Time, Communication, HR and Cost

3. Inputs, T&T and Outputs for Processes in Time Management

4. T&T for Report Performance and Distribute Information

5. Read Standards - Chapter 3 is more on Time management,  a must read atleast 2 to 3 times after reading PMBOK.

6. Read standards - Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 before going to PMBOK

7. Mock exams used: ucertify.com and onlineskillbuilder.com

8. ucertify.com mock exam costs around 119 $ and onlineskillbuilder (SP Limited exam) costs around 50 $

9. For filling application, i used 16 hrs of my MS Projects training and 14 hrs of online courses done in my company education website.

10. Application took around 4 days for approval. 

11. Aug 17th is the last day for writing SP exam based on PMBOK ver 4.

Let me know for more queries.

Thanks

Raju

Congratulations Raju and thanks for posting, since its very rare that someone clearing SP exam posts. So it will be very helpful

Wanted to know how did you find the ucertify mock tests are they good or can be avoided .?

Thanks admin, I would recommend for aspirants to practice ucertif as. There are not much other mock exams available other than onlineskillbuilder.com and VTC.

Thanks
