I have been a silent lurker for some months now but with the grace of GOD I was able to clear the exam on my first attempt on April 8, 2013.

Lessons Learned: I would have definitely taken the test sooner than I had. I studied for approximately 4-5 months (which was too long) but I felt much more comoftable after the long duration.

I think reading the RITA material is an adequate approach her questions and the the various angles she provides made her book (7th edition) and PMP FASTRAK top notch.
