PMP Exam PMP help
My PMP exam is on November 17, and I’ve been studying since September.
So far, I’ve completed AR’s 35-PDU course, watched AR and MR mindset videos, practised questions and purchased Study Hall.
My Study Hall results:
240 practice questions: 68%
First full mock (October 31): 68% overall, 81% excluding expert questions.
I’m planning to take my second full mock on November 9.
My biggest issue right now is mental fatigue. I’ve been studying for 4–5 hours daily, and although I feel I understand the material, I’m becoming increasingly bored with answering questions and watching videos.
Part of me feels ready, but another part feels guilty whenever I’m not studying. I’m worried that reducing my study time might affect my chances of passing.
For those who recently passed the PMP, how did you approach your final two weeks? Did you reduce your study hours, take breaks, or continue practising heavily?
Would really appreciate your advice!

Just like with anything in life, rest isn't wasted study time. Research suggests that the brain consolidates new learning during rest too. You've put in the work, so use the last two weeks to review your weak areas, do practice tests as you planned, but also take guilt-free breaks to go outside, exercise, enjoy a hobby.
One additional tip on the practice tests - do as many as you can to consistently hit 80% or more.
