Hi All,

Can someone clear this with me if you fail PMP exam three times in a year do you have to wait for a year before you can be able to do it again? I have one more attempt before my eligibility expire and I will like to know if I have to wait or let it go and have another 3 attempt.
Thanks all

You will have to re-apply for the PMP process meaning re-do the entire application process. For better understanding please visit pmi.org
But hey dont think about that - practise hard and clear the exam on the third time. Cheers

The best thing to do is ensure you pass the exam this time! :) Easy to say, right? But let's focus on that. First, look at the areas where you received 'Proficient' and whether you received more of those with the second exam over the first one. Do the same with the 'Not Proficient.' PMI's PMP Exam Content guide shows that the exam will have more questions related to Planning/Execution/Monitoring, so focus on these over Initiating and Closing.

Know the formulae - especially how to 'back into' Earned Value (EV). If you only know how to calculate SPI/CPI and what they mean, you'll get by so start with those.

Lastly, consider http://www.pmstudy.com for an exam prep course. We guarantee you will pass the exam. If you don't - and have to wait a year to test again - then we will pay for that second test. You're welcome to contact me directly if you have questions about that.

Yes, you would need to wait a year and reapply to take the PMP exam. Just stay confident and think of the two great practice exams you have already taken from PMI :) It is a tough exam, all the best!
