Hi David, i just passed PMP exam 2 weeks ago with unexpected result 2 domain on target and 1 domain above target. Thanks for your KZbin videos, it helped me a lot during my study plan. Cheers.

[@LukeBoger]

As far as I'm concerned, the only thing you need to pass the PMP is David McLachlan's KZbin channel. Not an exaggeration. Better than every other prep course/app/resource/practice tests I came across was Mr. McLachlan's walkthroughs of sample test questions. I cannot overstate how useful they are to THINKING your way through the PMP exam rather than trying to focus on recalling a bunch of memorized facts. Thank you for providing essential context to so many core concepts.

[@grimusgrubly]

The Andrew Ramadayl book - PMP Exam Prep Simplified is indispensable and he breaks down the ECO in a really easy to understand way. That said, I could not have passed without watching your 200 Agile questions David. Or your 7th edition in 60mins (I lost count of how many times ive watched it) You, good sir are indispensable to passing the PMP in my humble opinion. Thank you for all the help you provide

[@emmacopas990]

Does anyone have a PO Box for David? I’d love to send him a hand written thank you. His voice carried me through the exam - make no mistake, it’s freaking hard, but the way he breaks down the question, the correct answer vs the wrong answers… it’s what got me through. Thank you, David! Cheers 🎉

[@GregMBA]

This is absolute truth. If you're familiar with the ECO document, you know what the key to the answers is. Some points directly point to the answer to the questions.

I took the PMP exam today and passed it!! Huge thanks to you, David. I just ran into your videos when searching for PMP2024 on KZbin and since I have reviewed all of your PMP videos, including the exam questions on top of studying the PMBOK and Agile Practice Guide. I found it incredibly helpful as you especially taught me the agile mindset through many example questions and thorough explanation! Thank you so much for your positive teaching- the positivity helped me go through so many questions, although they were overwhelming at times.

[@gakuseiprofesor4239]

Just passed the PMP two weeks ago. I found that think of every question from a Servant Leader perspective really helped. The test didn't feel hard, so I thought I was bombing. I got to the end with 20 questions and 10 mins left. I knew I wouldn't make it, so I only read the final question of each one then picked the answer that made the most sense. I ended up passing with TTAT. I've watched your videos multiple times (even playing while I was sleep) over the last year.

[@davidmclachlanproject]

Good luck. You can do it! It's a lot to remember. Try and "chunk it up" into larger buckets or general rules if you can - like servant leadership, Incremental vs Predictive, the PM Process (Requirements, Scope, Schedule, Cost, Quality etc). Then for your exam, use the "Elimination" technique - remove answers that don't match the question, and choose the "most correct" answer. Keep going. I believe in you!

I am going through your Udemy course as I have found your videos to be super helpful (I did AR's course in November then had a terrible work mess which derailed me). I was part of the conference management team at Snowbird in the early 2000s (my first PM position!). I didn't realise that was what was happening or the impact it would have on me all these years later!

[@abdelmutalibyousif55]

Hi David, I have been following you for a whil, I need your thought about this question, During a project, the project manager finds an opportunity to reduce the project cost by completing a deliverable ahead of schedule with a minimal impact on project resources. However, the client has only been focused on the next milestone. How should the project manager approach this situation? A. Apply additional resources to realize the early deliverable and ensure the next milestone is achieved. B. Focus on the deliverable of the next project milestone as per the client's strict instructions. C. Review the change management plan to discuss early benefits realization with the client. D. Evaluate whether the client's request will add extra features to the project deliverable.

I had it in just 4 days. Purchase prep questions, which PMI sells. Solve them all. For incorrect answers, write all of them and the logic behind the correct answers. Record your voice and listen to it when you sleep. Finish these around 500 questions (15x15 mini exam + 175x2 Mock Exam), then jump into the exam and have your certificate.

[@sylviabkny]

My issue with the ECO is that the actual content/information about each task is scattered (mostly) across the PMBOK, Agile, and Process guides, not to mention the PMI prep slides. How do you deep dive into each of these tasks? I would LOVE to find the ECO Tasks pointing to specific pages of the 3 books. I would actually pay money for this. I would also love to see mock exam questions tracing back to these. David, if I may make a suggestion, how about a PMP questions video with a question for each of these tasks? Thank you so much! Love your videos.

Love David’s videos. I have noticed a lot of pms aren’t experts when it comes to creating project schedules. It took me time to get to where I’m really good. But I’d love to recommend a course or a coach who teaches PMs how to be really excellent at project schedule creation. This will help fast track pms to what took me years of determination and learning thru trial and error. Any recommendations on a formal course or a coach to hire?

Hi David, I like the way you teach. I've used multiple project management tools in the past but, now that I'm starting a business that hinges on it, I'm unsure of which tool to use. There are so many but it is important to me that it is one that will make it easy to follow PMI's project management style. You have a lot of videos regarding Microsoft excel templates etc. Should I keep it simple like that or would I benefit from a different tool such as ASANA, Monday, Clickup etc.

[@Mia-ft7wd]

Hi David. I just learned about your channel, and I already like your coaching approach. Are those applicable to the CAPM or are there specific videos for it?

The question and answer series will help for the CAPM also. It is very very similar The main difference is the CAPM has 27% for Business Analysis, so focus on Process Groups of Requirements, Scope, Quality, Benefits, and Agile techniques for that 🙂

Do not believe it. I am in a boot camp class now and taking notes on the learners kit book and need to understand pm and not memorize, no one I know passed on the 1st try, you have to take a deeper dive, if you have run small projects then think now times 100. I am studying to understand, the questions make you think and they transform the questions to trick you, my job is not rushing us now to get it, no pressure they said. You have to study and use resources outside of the PMI resources, I am in a boot camp now and people I know thought they were ready, well they failed twice, no thanks. Even the instructors say take a deeper dive and don’t memorize, they give us clues and hints
