Taking a PMP bootcamp this week. Trying to decide how long to study afterwards. I hate this stuff and just want to be done with it. 2 weeks enough time to study if I’m diligent?

Haha definitely yes. Studied for it for 1.5 week while staffed and passed.

It could be if you’re really good about studying those two weeks. But the best way to know where you stand is through a full practice test at the end of the boot camp.

If you hate it, will you actually be diligent though? I know I can't be.

Oddly, I am feeling motivated to study. So hopefully that feeling continues!

No way. 30-45 days while working easily is needed

A1, I’m currently on the bench.
