How hard is getting a “150” on the EA exam?

I got a 155 with about 3 months of prep, was practicing at 158-160, I get test nerves as my 590 GMAT can attest though I was practicing near 700. The EA was a shorter test and allowed my disability to not take me off the deep-end when trying to focus.

Also just got the Veritas Prep books used for like 20$ and worked through those as well as the GMAT core books

Best bet is to kick ass on the integrated reasoning portion though. Makes your score ceiling and floor much higher in the next two sections

Is it really that important ?

Does anyone have the 2020 SHRM books for sale or to borrow? My job won’t contribute towards my certification. I’ve already paid for my test. I have the books from 2015 but I’d like to study from the 2020. I tried finding them online to purchase but sellers of affordable books aren’t responding.

Recently obtained my aPHR and I’m considering next steps in advancing my career. I am eligible to sit for the SHRM-CP presently and will not be able to sit for a PHR until 09/2023. Any pros/cons with either certification? Should I wait to sit for PHR or go for SHRM-CP now?
