TOPIC: PMP Certification Completed (1st attempt) - AT in all Areas

Earlier this week, I completed my PMP Certification at first attempt. I was AT in all areas and scored high in almost 90% of Objectives as well.
Big part of this result was due to PM Prepcast Simulator.

Thanks to Cornelius & team for putting this amazing tool together. The only difference I found in the main exam was the option of Highlighting text, all other features were very similar to the one available in PM Prepcast.

I relied on the following for my preparation:
1) Book by Joseph Phillips (read it at least a couple of times)
2) PMBOK 6th edition - read this thrice. It was not as difficult as I initially thought to study the PMBOK
3) Multiple free resources online (openpm, PM Study Circle, Oliver Lehmann, Edwel Programs)
4) PMI Mock Exam - not sure if this is available for all or only for those who take membership
5) Simulator exams from PM Prepcast - took 7 of them, scored 90% on average across all exams. This gave me a lot of confidence going into the final exam.

Thanks again to Cornelius and team

Good afternoon,

Congratulations Manoj,

You really did a great job!

Hello Arif,

Congrats for taking the first step towards PMP certification. If you can, I would suggest you study the PMBOK atleast once and then make use of many free online resources to test and learn.

Multiple free resources online (openpm, PM Study Circle, Oliver Lehmann, Edwel Programs)

PM Prep Cast is another tool you could consider. I however used it only 10 days before my actual exam to test myself how I fared in mock exams.

Hope this helps and wish you good luck

HiManoj, did you take online or at center?
I just completed the online test and not sure about the result.

I saw a small 2 line message saying congratulations and hardwork. Is that means I passed?

Hi,

I took the exam at Pearson Vue Center and they were able to provide me a printed copy of the results immediately.

One day later, I received an email confirmation from PMI as well.

I hope this helps.
