I passed the PMI-ACP exam today with T/T/T/AT. It was mentally exhausting, significantly harder, longer, and more time-consuming than expected. The exam features extensive, complex, scenario-based case studies, calculation questions, and exhibits (such as charts, graphs, email chains, and sprint reports). Because the questions are longer and more heavily focused on data interpretation, time management is a major hurdle on the PMI-ACP exam. I've used the TIA PMI-ACP Simulator and one of Andrew Ramdayal's YouTube videos (120 Agile PMI-ACP or PMP Questions). After completing 4 full-length mock exams, my average score was around 85%, with my lowest being 80% and my highest 91%. Questions from the Simulator were very similar to questions from the exam, some were almost identical. There were 2 drag-and-drop questions, no formulas, but I had a ton of reports, charts, graphs, and data interpretation. My biggest advice: - You will need (on average) 6-10 weeks to prepare for this exam, studying 2h per day, 6 days per week. Study every day, even if it's only for a short period. - Apply the PMP Mindset: don't just memorize answers—understand the reasoning behind them. - Do as many practice questions (mock exams) as possible. - Make your own notes and review your wrong answers thoroughly. - Take full-length, timed mock exams. - Get really good sleep before the exam - Take your 10-minute break during the exam (get up and walk around, drink some water, reset and refresh your brain, and come back) - Don't panic when the questions look intimidating. Read carefully and look for what the question is actually asking. I hope this will help anyone who is currently studying for the PMI-ACP exam.

@Navpreet Kaur According to the newest PMI update, a project is defined as a temporary initiative to create a value. Value can be tangible (monetary asset) or intangible (brand recognition, goodwill). I'm sure that you've created some kind of value on your job positions.

@Navpreet Kaur Each your project description should follow a clear layout covering the standard project life cycle or PMI’s domains (People, Process, Business Environment). Next, try to break down each of your projects into: - OBJECTIVE(S) (goal, budget, and project timeline) - ROLE(S) (who led and/or directed the project) - RESPONSIBILITIE(S) (by project phases: initiating, planning, executing, monitoring & controlling, and closing) - OUTCOME(S) (results, achievements) Additionally, try to use 200-500 words and make sure you use PMI terminology such as (total project budget, schedule, risk mitigation, workflow, logistics, stakeholders, etc.) Hope this was helpful. Good luck!
