I used Study Hall to prepare. My exam scores were in the upper 60’s and 70’s. I took 3 mock exams and did all mini exams (scoring as low as in the 60’s and as high as in the 90’s), I completed practice questions (at 93% correctness) and some flash cards. I completed Andrew Ramdayal’s 200 Hard- only missing 11 total questions and reviewed David McLachlan’s Drag and Drop and Agile videos. All questions I missed, I sent them through Claude and asked Claude why I got the answers wrong and used a prompt that required that Claude think like a PMI tutor. I watched Andrew Ramdayal’s mindset training. I am a CSM and Project Manager in my role. This morning I took the PMP exam and scored AT/NI/AT resulting in a fail (per the prelim link). The exam had zero drag and drop questions and a handful of multiple answer questions. Overall, I felt the exam questions were not like the Studyhall. I didn’t think it was extremely hard. There were only a few questions that I was confused where I was stumped because 2-3 answers were good answers and then at times zero were good answers. I’m not sure if I overthought many of the questions on the exam. I am not sure how to improve the process portion of the exam. I am disappointed and confused.

I am an experienced PM who is taking the PMP exam in 1 week for the first time. I took a few mock exams that were not SH and scored 80%+ on all of them. I did the PM Mindset video and paused it and got all questions 100% right on first try. Due to recommendations here, I’ve been doing SH mock mini’s and one full length exam (so far). I cannot get over a 65%. My frustration is that on the ones I miss, there are two really good answers and the answer is usually the other one that I did not select. Even after reviewing the answers, understanding why it’s a better answer and taking another mock exam, the same thing happens on the next one I take. I even retake the previous exam and get a 100%. This worry’s me about the PMP exam in a week and if I should reschedule. Does anyone have any advice or strategies that might help? Thanks so much!

Hi everyone! Im new here. I am taking the PMP exam on 7/5. I am not sure which Study Hall bundle I should purchase. Can you upgrade your purchase if you feel you need more practice exams? I am a Scrum Master / Project Manager for the government (for 3-+ years) and need a PMP to be promoted to Senior PM (I am already lead PM). I do have a CSM certification. It’s what got me hired in the first place. I want to be thoroughly prepared for the exam and not have to take it again. I did a few free mini practice exams from other sources than Study Hall and scored between an 80% & 95% but was told those aren’t a good references to the PMP exam and Study Hall was recommended! Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
