Hi, PMP friends! I am happy to announce that I passed my PMP exam. It feels great to have accomplished this goal. 🌟 A HUGE shoutout to our Zoom Study Group -- from a motivational perspective, you all were the biggest differentiator for me. I knew that each week, I had accountability partners teaching me, allowing me to teach them, and cheering me on along the way. I have met people from all over the world that I would not have otherwise met. You are all so smart, dedicated and supportive -- best group ever. 💗 My scores: People Domain: Above Target Process Domain: Target Business Environment Domain: Above Target If you have been studying regularly for a few months, if you feel comfortable with the PM mindset, and if you can confidently speak to key PMP concepts, you are probably more ready than you think you are to take the exam. As humans, we have a tendency to sometimes doubt ourselves and root for our friends and loved ones. Continue to root for your friends and loved ones, but also BEGIN to positive self-talk (you are amazing too). In preparation for the PMP exam, worry less about scoring a certain number on your practice exams, and focus more on understanding what the concepts actually mean (and how they can be applied to any scenario that is presented to you). What helped me the most with my preparation? 1) AR's Udemy Course 2) PMI Practice Exam 3) Our Zoom Study Group 4) Rita M's PMP book. 5) AR's drag & drop video on YouTube Tip: make sure that you comfortably understand your ITTOs (in addition to understanding the processes and process groups). What helped me the least? 1) Overthinking 2) Wasting money on too many books that I barely read Tip: stick with a few materials to confuse yourself LESS 😅 Exam Day Prep: 1) Get there early (if taking your exam at a test site) 2) Utilize those 10-min breaks in between each section (stretch, drink water, just walk away from the screen) 3) Be prepared for a mind %#@! -- seriously (a 4 hour exam is no joke - I went through every emotion and frustration while taking the exam)

Hello everyone, my name is Edward. I just started on Andrew's PMP course on Udemy, and I am here looking for folks who would be interested in forming a study group. I am hoping that this group can meet online at least once a week at around 7 PM PDT time zone, please feel free to comment or DM me if you are interested, and I can create meeting link when there are enough people. Thank you in advance !
