I'm really glad I stumbled upon this video! I'm taking the test on Tuesday and will have studied for about a week. I've been PM'ing and a Producer for a long, long time. The exam questions in the Study Hall are, well...what can I say. I do get 100% on all the People parts. It's the Processes that I have to practice, as I've always used some Frankenstein hybrid of my/the Team's own design. ANYWAY, I notice that I do much better on the questions from PMI Infinity (Chat GPT). But they're the same questions, basically, since they're from PMI. I downloaded the Third3Rock study notes too. They're awesome. Thank you.

One question: what was your average score in the full length mock exams in PMI Study Hall? I did 3 out of the 5 I have purchased so far and I ranked 70%, 74% and 74%. I am unsure if this means I am ready for the exam or not. Maybe you can help me sharing your experience on this particular matter. Thanks a lot.

one quick question.. Is it good idea to write down 49 processes and EVM formulas on plain paper as soon as exam starts in person..? So you can refer to it throughout the exam when needed. not sure it will be helpful or not. Can you please share your experience..? Thanks

@UlyssiaGayle 4 ай бұрын

Great question. I would say that its a good idea to have a understanding of the 49 processes but I wouldn't say you need to memorize or write them down as soon as you enter the testing center because I don’t think it will help you pass the current exam. I would review the PMI exam content outline for what topics will be on the exam.

As much as I want to test in a month, my dashboard on study hall for the practice questions is literally telling me not to. I’d definitely like your guidance on how you studied and retained all of this information in order to pass. I haven’t even started the the mini practice exams and I already feel defeated tbh! My overall dashboard score is 45%, how the hell or what the hell do I need to do for it to get 60’s and 70’s????

@UlyssiaGayle 3 ай бұрын

How many practice questions or quizzes have you taken so far? My advice would be to go back and review the questions you got wrong. Try to understand the reasoning behind the answer. Remember when answering the questions to follow the sequence below when answering questions: assess review and take action If you haven’t already, I recommend purchasing the study notes by third3rockpmp! They are very thorough and helpful! My 1st few tests I scored in the 40s and got better with each practice test.

@jamescharles1316 3 ай бұрын

I’ve gone through all of the practice questions so far from my last comment to you on SH. And I currently completed five exams 5 so far. I do want to add that I normally read the wrong answers after I finish the practice exam/questions but it’s just retaining that info the next day or three days later lol. Also, Thank you for mentioning Third Rock’s notes as recommended. I have been trying to read a section at a time everyday in a way I can consume and retain the notes. Which that sequence you stated was the very first one “A.R.T”! I’m hoping everything I’m reviewing and doing will get me this certification. Lastly, I’m hoping my scores increases as well. If the actual CAPM/PMP test is this way then there might be a light at the end of the tunnel.
