Hello,

I started studying in the beginning of January of this year.

I made a schedule out for myself to watch 2-3 prepcast videos each day until I was done. I finished the videos about half way through Feb.

I then started reading Rita's prep book and I finished that in like a week and half.

After I finished Ritas book, I took my first 200 question exam. I scored a 75%

I decided I needed to skim through the PMBOK guide, which I did in the span of 2 days.

I then took another 200 question exam and scored an 83% and between all of that I was taking 20 question quizes and scoring in the 90's.

I felt pretty confident after my 2nd Exam Simulator test.

My test was scheduled for today (Mar 22)

I went in and took it, and I felt like it was so hard and tricky. I honestly doubted myself throughout the whole test and felt like I was going to fail.

In the end I got Above Target for all areas except for Closing, I scored on target there.

My biggest piece of advice is to set a schedule and study every single day for at least an hour or two.
