Study hall was a great resource, it played a very vital role in helping me pass the PMP exams
Thank you PMI

The exam format was a little confusing. It was not as described and would benefit from a bit more structure. Additionally it would be better if the breaks were at approximately the 1 hour mark and the 2 hour mark. I had my first break after 15 minutes so it made the last two hours very long without a bathroom break.

The tools and UX/UI functioned well and there was clear instruction at every turn.

Navigating the PMP certification path with PMI was both challenging and incredibly rewarding. The online educational offerings fit my learning style perfectly, it's well‑structured, easy to digest, and genuinely valuable for personal growth and professional development. Overall, the journey pushed me, taught me, and ultimately helped me level up in ways I’m proud of.

The testing center was thorough and great. They provided a pen, scrap paper, a physical and digital calculator option, and the system also had the ability to highlight/strikethrough.

I did find the actual exam a little different than the official PMI practice exam in the Case Study area. The exam has the first section split out, so you focus on the Case Study questions essentially all at once. The official practice exam sprinkled two Case Study sections roughly 1/3 & 2/3 of the way through the exam.

The official exam had two breaks, one after the initial Case study section, and one at about Question 90-100 of 180.

I think this is fine, but the discrepancy between what I'd practiced and prepared for and the reality honestly threw me off for a bit. You also can't go back to review previous answers after each break. This is communicated in the actual exam, but I wasn't prepared for it ahead of time because the Practice Exam experience was different.

The real exam was a slightly easier than the practice exam, but with the different format and breaks, time management is even more important than on the practice exam. The first portion of your exam is dedicated to ~10 of the 180 questions. I spent too much time in this area, and had to really blitz through and I did not feel as confident in my answers because I couldn't spend the time.

I have been a PMP for over 20 years. My application got picked up for audit (apparently) randomly. My application for PgMP got picked up for audit 2 weeks after that. Please use some intelligence in your system while picking up for audit.
During the review process, I was told the training I provided did not meet the requirement. I did not get an email and after the customer service agent sent me the email, it was very unclear as I had taken a 48 PDU course from a PMI authorized vendor. Eventually it was approved. This shows that PMI is not using intelligent judgement which selecting for audit or reviewing the application. Please fix your process

I think the content was good and the questions were formed well to give a well-informed idea of the test-taker's understanding of the material. However, I think the same understanding could be proven in fewer questions. Sitting for the exam itself was exhausting.

Exam experience

I had breaks after 10 questions and after 95. It was supposed to be 60 and 60. This is not good. I asked the examiner for a break after 75 questions, but they did not allow me to.

Also, I was not able to take the exam from my desk because there was a completely disconnected external monitor on my table. I could not remove it and ended up taking the exam from a coffee table.

The rest was pretty straightforward.

Instructor made the learning interesting and I passed my exam on the first try.

Test was very challenging, very spot on and nicely put together. The materials were a lot to understand but very informative

Very thorough. You either know the material or you don't!

The prep tests contributed greatly to me passing the PMP. I took the test repeatedly and reviewed until I was averaging in the 80th percentile and always reviewed my incorrect answers.

Earning my PMP certification has been an incredible professional milestone and a rewarding learning experience.

I’m grateful to the Project Management Institute (PMI) for providing a globally recognized certification and valuable resources that helped me prepare for the exam and, more importantly, become a better project management professional.

The PMP journey was challenging, but absolutely worth it. I’m proud to have achieved this goal and excited to apply what I’ve learned in my professional career.

Thank you, PMI, for being part of this journey! 🎓🏆

I like how accessible the information is

Good experience but the providers are not very friendly
