Anyone done the PSPO and/or PSM certifications and have some advice? How much time should i spend studying? How hard is the exam?

If you have a lot of experience working on Scrum projects then the questions on the exam should be pretty familiar. There is a lot of overlap between both exams so I would probably recommend taking the PSM first. Just know the scrum guide inside and out, because they’ll try to trick you on the wording of certain questions. The most difficult part is that you only have an hour to answer 80 questions, so just make sure you don’t run out of time.
