Actually laughed out loud at this

did it on the bench a few years ago, it took me like 60 hours over 3 weeks once i sat down and did it (which was about 6 months after i took the bootcamp). just focus on practice tests and review what you miss.

Taking the exam on my computer on August 11, from the reviews I’ve read, they say it’s fine. They have snacks they eat while taking it. The virtual proctor has you show your room to make sure there isn’t any cheating materials prior to starting. Took my BootCamp back in March, got serious into studying end of May

Also curious about this. How is the online exam format? How much time did everyone spend on preparing?

What is pmp

Project management professional certification

like

Is this certification worth it?

in federal consulting only, as clients often specify it as a requirement for some reason. some commercial clients have strong PMO organizations and may prefer it. it’s worth it if you don’t pay for it. just don’t act like it’s an MD/PhD and put it after your name on linkedin.

A month should be alright. Make sure you master all the inputs and outputs to all knowledge areas as well as Tools and Techniques used.
