Hello Everyone, I got an average of 60 to 65% in all Study hall full length exams .Please share your thoughts . Do i need more practice to appear for exam?

(TL;DR at bottom) Hello everyone, just wanted to share my experience taking the PMP exam. It was definitely challenging and I was nervous a few hours before the test and during the first section. Using Andrew’s Exam simulator was a great tool and I think that’s what helped me achieve at Target for People and Business. I got Below Target for Processes which will be my main focus going for my second attempt. I will say, the wording on the exam is so tricky and even when eliminating answers, being left with 2 or even 3 potentially good choices made it all the more difficult. The drag and drop were also a nightmare as I used Andrew’s 100 drag n drop study material which also helped but the way the choices were worded made it more difficult than I expected. All in all, I’m frustrated and bummed out at my results but still dedicated and have a new burning passion to pass this exam. Sorry for the long post and thank you for everyone who read. TL;DR: Studied my butt off but still failed the exam due to tricky wording, nerves, and lack of knowledge in Processes. Will attempt again.

When I decided to take the PMP exam, I looked at almost every recommended material out there. I read AR's book, Rita's guide, PMBOK 6th (several chapters) and 7th editions (90% of the book), the Agile Practice Guide (read twice), and several other texts that I cannot recall. I also watched several Udemy videos, including Joseph Phillips, ARx2, and DMx2. On YouTube: MR, AR, DM, Edzest, Ricardo Vargas and possibly 20 other PMP prep videos, then I invested in Study Hall Plus and I was considering the PMI exam simulator. But, as you can guess, this approach ended up being a recipe for frustration and burnout. Despite my study mates reassuring me that I was ready, I felt unprepared and rescheduled my exam. Looking back, I wish I had focused on just a few resources, maybe the AR Udemy course, Agile Practice Guide, and Study Hall. I've learned that it's perfectly fine to stick to the same material and review it multiple times instead of trying to cover every book, course, and website like I did. And honestly, I don't think anyone can get 100% on the exam, it's just not realistic. Has anyone else had a similar experience with PMP exam prep?"

Hi, I am currently doing a 9 - week roadmap. Working my way though Rita's book and flash cards, Andrews video course and sim exams. I would love to team up with a group to fill in the gaps. I am on the West coast please let me know if you are interested. I do not have a planned out study group agenda but we can figure that out. Looking forward to connecting.

I’m planning to take my PMP exam in August and looking for a study buddy in the Eastern Time (ET) zone. If you’re also preparing and would like to keep each other accountable, share resources, or do study sessions together, feel free to reach out!
