Okay I'm absolutely confused:
I recently changed roles and companies. Went from full accounting into a senior/associate investment Analyst role.

I basically went from creating and implementing models with my colleagues and managers.
To now analyzing VC/PE funds and building decks for our investment recommendations.

The thing is i was used to have inputs when needed from my managers for my models. Now I'm in a senior position with not much support for something I haven't done since uni

Hi everyone,
I passed my PMP thanks to this sub group.
I have passed Above Target in the People section, and T in the other sections.
It was 95% situational questions.
Thave used AR's mock exams, and used my wrong answers to figure out my weakness and where I truly stand. I didn't purchase AR's course, just the mock exam simulator.
The 200 agile questions by David McLachlan were amazing, it really helped me in adapting to an agile mindset. TIA simulator n Joseph Phillip is useful.
