Finally I am PMP now....
It was very beautiful moment, I pressed "End" button and I got my score "Congratulations”.... and I became PMP certified.
Huhhhh, you know what I was trying to decide to become PMP since 5 years back. I know , everybody will laugh at it. But that’s True, We started preparation 5 years back. But then it got low preference as I somehow managed to have secured Job and got satisfaction in whatever I was doing.
2 years back one of the person came to destroy my life. He succeeded in that but he has given me reason to become a PMP, and I started preparations. It was very hard to study in the situation from which I was going.. Still I started.
I started very slowly but steadily .. Took the 35 hours training from PMI Deccan chapter, it was a boosting one. I red PMBOK and Rita 2 times thoroughly.
Then got question bank from friends and from different sites. Read different sections in the books from PMI.org site. Prepared own ITTO list in excel. All the formulas, definitions.
It gave me a confidence and I planned the date.
Reached Dombiwali on Saturday with a Plan of Study. My MAMA gave me nice study room and everything was as per Plan.
On Tuesday I reached promatric center around 11, my actual time was at 1 PM . They asked me If I want to start the exam.
I started .. They checked ID's and allocted a machine. Clock started ticking 3.59.59 hours remening....
one by one questions were appearing on the screen. Most of them were nasty and difficult to make out what they mean , few of them were straight forward.
I started jotting down counts for the questions I was sure. As it started increasing my count is deceasing. after some time it was running 50% , then sometime it became 60%..
Finally I completed all the questions. I was having 1 hour 20 min to review. One by one I started review and finally after one hour I completed review my count was 75%. Then I started second review for unsure answers, but they remain unsure.
Finally I decided to complete the exam. it's 20 min before time. But I was sure that I am not going to get change in answers so that was the end.
I presses complete button and It started asking some survey question and finally after 5 min ... The message came "Congratulations" Your result is "PASS" whhhhhhhoooooooo..
I jumped in the chair and went out with big smile on my Face......
I done it ... It was hard...
