Does having a PMP certification hold any water in digital media? Do folks care? I’ve been using PMI resources to help solve problems / improve stuff at my org, and I’m tempted to get the full cert but I’m not sure if it’d actually mean anything / have a meaningful impact on my career or pay.

It’s not a huge investment in time or money but if it doesn’t have much of an impact I’d rather just keep reading free resources online on my own time

EA scores

Took my first GMAC official practice EA and scored a 159. From what I read, that translates to roughly a 155 real-test.

Anyone with experience on the GMAC practice tests and then getting their real scores?
