Hi Ray,yesterday I have cleared my PMP exam. Thanks for uploading all the videos.Your Udemy questions patterns also helped. 90% questions were agile based and one point I thought I was about to fail. Though I had studied pmbok guide edition 6 thoroughly(Agile part),yet had some difficulties to answer and stick to my original time management plan!!Somehow I managed and now a PMP certified 😀. Those who are willing to take the exam,my advice will be learn agile and understand it in high level and practice agile based mock questions many as you can.

Hi Ray. I’m all ears. I just took the PMP this morning and got my exam revoked after 125 questions due to technical issues. But my question is this: If you don’t answer all of the questions does pmi automatically Fail you in the exam? Or is it almost setup where you have to answer all of the questions to meet their exam algorithm? Im very discouraged right now. But I’m starting from scratch with your courses. Honestly the mock exams were helpful but my exam today had a lot of choose 2 or 3 answers, a few long match to the correct term. So PMI is definitely changing things up from mostly situational questions. They are definitely making the exam more challenging

[@PMPwithRay]

Hi Jeanine, I always recommend not to write the test from home, I have said that multiple times across multiple videos. Sometimes when you logout & login to the Pearson Vue system after an unexpected error, it may mess up all of your previous responses. Exam centres are much more reliable. Anyways, what’s done is done…please make sure the next attempt of your’s is from a exam centre and not from home.

Understand ITTOs based on your videos 8. Mock Exam - Udemy - Yours, Tricia Roy and Diouan Abderrazzaq) 9. Exam Simulation - PrepCast After watching your video, I’m having doubts about the Agile section of the exam. Do you think Agile Practice Guide + Glossary + Mock Exams would be sufficient for preparing Agile section of the exam? Or should I also invest in one of the Agile textbooks?

[@PMPwithRay]

Hi Ujjwal, I think you are already doing a lot in your prep. I don't suggest you get any other book on Agile. Just read up the critical concepts of Agile from Google to consolidate your understanding. Else, PMBOK6 & 7 is quite self-explanatory. Also, it's extremely critical that you analyze the questions of Agile from your mocks that you get wrong. This will fill in the gaps in your understanding. Cheers!

This is very helpful, Ray. I have been in the following your videos ever since I decided to take my PMP exam. I am currently awaiting a decision on my PMI application. Quick question... The latest PMP course outline now doesn't specify which edition of the PMBOK Guide one should use. Do you think it should be ok to still use the sixth edition, or should I be switching to the seventh?

[@PMPwithRay]

Hi Sumeet, Hello. Right now (and for the foreseeable future) the current PMP exam (2021 format) will remain based on the PMP Examination Content Outline (ECO) [bit.ly/2QPSoo6] and will not be updated based on the new PMBOK 7. There has been an effort by PMI to "decouple" the PMP exam from the PMBOK Guide. The PMP exam is based on the PMBOK Guide, sixth edition as just ONE of the exam resources [bit.ly/2RegdpB] to cover the topics mentioned in the ECO. Remember, the ECO is the Bible! Here's what PMI says: "The PMBOK® Guide is an input to preparing for the PMP® exam - and is listed as a reference - but it is not a test-preparation tool. The new PMP® exam, which launched 2 January 2021, will continue to use the PMBOK® Guide - Sixth Edition as one of several references." I would suggest you read this FAQ document by PMI (esp. Q-17) that will clear most of your doubts regarding PMBOK7 and its linkage to the PMP Exam 2021: drive.google.com/file/d/1pxCISqfWqrZcjdpa9rbIZgfgxZvBipTL/view?usp=sharing

[@PMPwithRay]

Hi Devjyoti Yes, you may start your preparation now.I would suggest please don't book your exam date before Aug 21 so that you should be safe even if PMBOK 7 comes out . But it is very important to note that you should follow the ECO to understand which PMBOK edition the PMP exam board is following. It is not necessary that the PMP ECO will change immediately after PMBOK 7 comes out. PMI can still follow PMBOK 6 for PMP exam for a few months after PMBOK 7 comes out.

Hello Sir, your video is really very nice and helpful.. I want to ask that I am from Electrical background and working in construction project field so PMP is beneficial for me?

[@PMPwithRay]

That depends Hemant. The key thing is, you need to perform the roles & responsibilities of a project manager such as managing budget, managing funds, managing resources, quality, delivery etc. etc.....if you have done those, you can definitely apply for PMP... Note that a ‘project’ should have a definite start & end + convey a very tangible before/after scenario. Routine roles such as of maintenance, administration etc. are not treated as projects.

Hi Ray! I just ordered the PMBOK 7 and will start my studying July 1, 2021. How many months/hours of study do you recommend? Will you be making a video around PMBOK 7?

[@PMPwithRay]

Hi Leb. the PMP exam is still based on PMBOK6 and continue to be based on the same till the ECO is updated. So, I propose you follow the PMP ECO (irrespective of the PMBOK edition) and start studying for the exam.

Hello Mr. Ray , Good Evening I hope you are doing good. From last 1 day I have watched your videos regarding PMP preparation , It grew my interest to apply for PMP certification, but few things I would like to know from you. I have an work experience of over 12 years basically in Sales & Marketing , Key accounts, Operations. I never headed any projects but was part of the few projects . So am I eligible to apply for PMP certification ? Your valuable inputs will help me to move ahead in my career .

Hi Yasmine, you should start with a text book first (Rita) and then read PMBOK6. The PMP Exam will be based on the current ECO as I see in near future. Even if PMBOK7 comes out, the PMP exam will still be based on PMBOK6 till the ECO especially calls out PMBOK7. If you write the exam in sep-21, it will still be PMBOK6.
