For everyone!!! Please do not take your exam online! I studied so hard for months for this exam just to join my exam for proctor to revoke my exam because I got too close to screen on question 110! I do not want anybody to have same experience I had. Now I have to put up with same stress and retake a 4 hour test! Don’t know if I will pay for it again too! Unfair. I hope this will not happen to others. I have read so many bad stories about taking online exam after this happened to me. I didn’t know. If this can help to anybody at least I didn’t waste my 3 hours of life and rest of the day frustrated and crying.

Hi Max, great video. Thank you for making it. I registered for the PMP last year and was surprised that I had a few weeks left before it expired so I looked for some tip videos and used yours. Booked my test 2 weeks ago. Studied for 9 days while working 50-60 hours/week and this video was key, if anything as a confidence booster. I watched Ricardo Vargas' video a few times and then used a course on Udemy by Andrew Ramdayal at 2x speed. Didn't finish the course nor did I take a full practice test but stayed focused and made my own flashcards. Passed above target last night!

Thank you Max, I saw this video about a month ago right around the time I started preparing for my PMP exam and it helped me gain confidence on what to expect and how to approach the exam. And I'm glad to say I passed the exam!

Max, thanks for sharing your PMP certification journey. I followed your plan for most part and was able to pass in 2 weeks as well, but I do have good experience in Product development space, that comes in handy to understand. You did amazing job documenting the step by step tutorial, sharing your word document easy to follow your 35 hour plan and excel sheet with key concepts which you wanted to review. You're life saver!
Appreciate your hard work in the exam and sharing with us how to do it in 2 weeks, which otherwise seems quite daunting task taking up months of effort.👍

Hi Max. I just wanted to come back around to your video to say thank you. I passed the PMP at the end of August and your video was what inspired me to work to attain the certification. Your advice was spot on, and even though I veered from it, I always came back, even watching the video again a couple of times before the test just to build my confidence. I've recommended it on the PMP Reddit thread as others have. Thanks for contributing to our profession and be well.

Just wanted to express a huge THANK YOU!! I watched this video, followed your notes, signed up for the practice/mock exams that you mentioned, and happy to say that I successfully passed the PMP yesterday. But your input and suggestions shared here were my primary tools. And I comfortably passed in the 'Above Target' level. Thanks so much!!!! Joe C.

Hi Max, I passed today…using your study guide and scored above target. Thank you very much!
It took a bit longer to study, dedicating about 80 hours while working full-time. Your study guide was spot on and made it very practical to study the right material to pass. Rick
