PMP is a mark of incompetence anyway.

Failed my first time and then passed the second. Use the PMI Studyhall! Practice questions look exactly like the exam questions.

Taking mine on 7/2. Did 5 full mock study hall exams, all the practice questions and the minis. I'm between 64%-70% on the full mocks. I don't know what's going to happen but I've truly had enough.

Most go into the exam believing experience will help with the exam. It is a thoroughly theoretical exam and you need to text-prep for it. Not an entirely lost effort - PMP will be useful for engagement management roles if you are into it. And for the fish taking it next Tuesday w/o prep: best of luck.

I just got a really great offer, only downside is the eligibility for maternity leave is after 12 months of employment.

I want to see if I could negotiate being eligible earlier but I also don’t want them to think I’m pregnant when I’m not actually… How would you approach the conversation?
