Hello, has anyone attempted both the exam types in TIA simulator? I scored a little less in the BETA than I did for the other and I’m worried why that might be? Is the real exam more close to the BETA or the non-BETA one?

I wanted to share the exciting news that I passed my PMP certification exam (1st attempt) with AT/AT/AT yesterday!! I took the test at the Pearson Vue Testing Center at 8 am, received the preliminary PASS score report from the check-in personnel right after the test (on my way out) and received the official scores via email from PMI around 9.30 am this morning. Many thanks to Andrew Ramdayal for his prep content and materials and PMP peer mates on various platforms for lot of helpful insights. Sharing some insights here for peer PMP mates. I used the following: 1. Andrew's 35 hr Udemy PMP Prep course. Pay attention to the Mindset sections at the end. These helped me decide between 2 correct /similar answers. 2. Andrew's PMP Prep book (this is a great hard copy of condensed notes that are very simple and easy to follow). 3. Andrew's recent Udemy Cram course (that was a saver for me to review what I read from a few months ago). 4. TIA simulator mock tests (both regular ones and the Beta tests). I am glad I tried the TIA Beta mock tests because (a) they were a 180 question set and (b) they were relatively tougher than the regular mock tests on TIA. Taking these Beta tests felt relatively harder and lengthier than the non-Beta tests but they helped challenge/prepare me to handle lengthier and a couple of tricky questions on the exam better and boost my confidence/readiness in the process. The real exam had a few questions that were fairly similar to the Beta question format but slightly less lengthy. Overall, it is best to definitely do the non-Beta tests and try the Beta questions for additional practice. 5. I attended Andrew's YouTube Live Stream Tuesday sessions. 6. Ricardo Vargas' Process Video (YouTube). 7. A regular and disciplined study regimen. I found that the exam was very close to the original (non-Beta) TIA mock tests. I did take the TIA Beta mock tests before the exam date and even though they felt tougher, they did boost my confidence and sense of readiness for the test. Time management is key during the real exam as well as understanding the process flows and the Mindset (Andrew explained how to track time performance in his Udemy 35 hr course). My exam was about 65% Agile based questions with the rest interspersed with Predictive, Hybrid and Project Management concepts/definitions.
