TOPIC: Passed my PMP Exam on March 12th on first attempt Above Target

Hello All,

Wanted to share that I passed my PMP on the first attempt this past Friday. I did about 1300 questions in the simulator and one full length exam. I was scoring in the 80% in all three domains over the course of 1300 questions. Advice I would give is to do as many practice questions as possible and utilize the SERVANT LEADERSHIP mindset during the real exam. I noticed that most of the questions on the real exam had 2 to 3 answer choices that could be correct and you had to pick the best choice. Total there were about 20 questions on the entire exam that I knew I chose the correct the answer. The simulator helped a lot with getting familiar with the types of questions that would be asked on the real exam. If you are scoring 75% or above consistently you will do just fine on the real exam. Agile practice guide is a MUST for the new exam format.

Another tool that was a big help was joining in on the live sessions by Andrew Ramdayal on youtube. He holds a session every Tuesday at 7pm EST. His sessions were a huge help on analyzing questions and using the servant leader mindset. Definitely worth getting in on this and its free.

Study materials used:
1. PMI online prep course
2. Agile practice guide (Read it twice)
3. Prep cast simulator 1300 questions
4. PMBOK 6th addition (read it cover to cover)
5. Scrum Guide
