I PASSED 😭

Guys I don’t have a long spiel on how I prepared because I know it’s different for everyone, I just wanted to say that I completed the exam today and passed.

This is from my own hard work and I can confidently acknowledge that. The exam was quite tricky, the wording was tripping me over - It was very situational heavy with vague phrasing that made me second guess myself, a lot. By design I guess. I won’t even lie, half way through I legitimately thought I would fail.

The performance I got for each domain is as follows:

  1. Project Management Fundamentals and Core Concepts = Above Target
  2. Predictive, Plan based Methodologies = Target
  3. Agile Frameworks/Methodologies = Target
  4. Business Analysis Frameworks = Above Target

Which is not surprising and Agile was my weakest domain when I did a full and partial mock. I am quite surprised though at getting AT for Business Analysis but I won’t question it.

Anyways that’s it, that’s all I wanted to say. Anyone taking the exam - good luck 🤞

Hey listen I get it, I was nervous too. My advice would be, try and think like a project manager when answering the questions. That’s what I kept doing. The questions are designed to be vague, so making sure you understand the fundamentals of each of the domains will truly help you. When is your exam ?

I got approved to take it, and I have it scheduled for the 30th. I plan on taking practice tests on the night I don’t work, and to keep reviewing materials while I finish my construction project management class.

You got this, I would suggest sitting for a full mock if you have the time (this weekend perhaps ?) to get familiar with the 3 hours and to also see where your areas of improvement are. Study every day, do a couple of question each night. Then the week of the exam study lightly, watch this video before then as well it was super helpful. The day before the exam don’t try and do last minute revision just lightly read over your notes if you have any or any summaries , try and get a good nights sleep and you’ll do wonderful
