TOPIC: PMP Application Questions

Hello,
I'm preparing my PMP application and I have a few questions.
1) What is the time range for the 4,500 hours of PM experience? I've seen different sources say 5 years, 6 years, 7...I couldn't find a clear answer on the PMI site.
2)During an internship I preformed some PM activities. Can those hours count towards the 4,500 hour requirement?

Thank you!

hello bob,
I highly recommend that you go through the PMI PMP handbook , it contains very useful information and will answer all your inquries.

the time frame of the considered experience is the last 8 years from the date of the application. actually this information ins not included on the PMI exam handbook ,I got it directly from PMI online assist. for your second question actually no one can advise you about the application assessment criteria, I suggest you contact PMI directly via their customer services
