Am I ready ?

Submitted by gb_dadda on Tue, 03/11/2014 - 19:23

Guys,

I posted a question in morning. Its missing. So let me repost.I want to know whether I can sit for my exam on 24th ( 2 weeks from now ). My mock test results are :

Head First Mock 200Q  - 84%

Scordo Tests 1-15  - avg - 84%

Scordo Test 16 and 17 - >90% (48/50 and 49/50.)

About a day back gave 30Q PMZilla and score 43%. I was shocked.

I then gave Oliver Lehman 175Q - 77%

Preparations:

Read the following books.

HF book 2 times. PMBOK5 2 times. Rita 1 time. Planning to read Rita one more time next week.

Although I am familiar with ITTO , I did not memorize them.Should I ?

I am a bit confused. Should I sit for the exam or postpone ?

 

Thanks

To me you look more than ready.... just focus on fixing the know issues and stay confident.... you do not have to score proficient in all categories... and people who score more than 75% in last scordo quizes do great in exam, this i am saying based on my regular interactions with my clients.... i train people for PMP :-)  just go ahead and Best of Luck....

No need to memorize ITTO , just make sure you understand the goal of each process and also know the primary outputs coming from each process.

Reading one more round of rita is good idea..., you may also like to check some of our vidoes on PMP, specially the earned value one

2 weeks is a long time. Brush up your knowledge areas where you scored less in PMZilla questions. Give the test again and you should score above 70%.

HeadFirst and Scordo are not good benchmarks. In my opinion you should take few more mock tests from different sources.

2 times HF, 1 Rita and the scordo test is more than enough preparation. Overstudy will make you doubt some of your own correct answers too. If you are confident, just go for it, no need to over prepare. All the best Dadda !
