Planning to start preparing for PMP. Almost every article I read on Google said it's a difficult exam. Any tips on study plan that worked, considering a 2 month timeline of 2 hours every day preparation?

About to start studying too. Buy PMP exam app about $40 and just practice with that. The book comes with the PMI membership anyways. How do you get the 40 required hours to sit for the exam? I am struggling with that piece

You can basically attend any course that states it gives you credit. I attended a live instructor-led course to amass the 40 hours. Note that you also need project management hours (and to have passed through all the project’s phases)
