How Praveen Kumar Cleared PMP Certification | #infocareer #2024 #pmp #successstory

I am Praveen Today I'm having 10 plus years of experience and currently working with Android Technologies in project management team as a senior engineer actually I took up this course in last July joined an online session at the time I was working with It's a power company actually I was working there so I was looking to switch over Then I came across this PMP course in actually in April so so I was trying looking after many institutes through one of my colleagues I came across Info Career but still I just gone through your Google reviews everything so I then I joined I got some conference it will be fine to join for career Then I took a decision Then I joined in Info Career in the month of July I think so the five weekend training it was good and I was in a mindset to complete it in two to three months session I fixed my date but unfortunately I got a new job so I have to switch over. So in the mid of September I was till July to September I was continuing my preparation I completed around 40 to 50 percentage of my preparation but then after switching over I have to travel abroad due to my new company recruitments I had some training so two months There was a complete hold on my preparation in the December 1st week I think I was returning from abroad during my retired self I was coming with the mindset that I should not stop with this I have to start my preparation again and I have to complete this PNP Whatever I am coming across in the meanwhile I have to tell that in the month of October and November the Info Career team members they were regularly following me what is about your preparation when you will be starting? What is the stage now? I was telling them that I am abroad I could not able to do now so then once I reached here I give a call to them they spoke informed me to talk to you. Then I think December 4th I reached in the same date I gave a call to you and I asked Sir, I want to start my preparation as already I committed 40% I am not sure how to go about from that or I have to start from beginning. You have advised me to start from the beginning to go through all the videos, do all the tests from the beginning what drives me slow. Then the next day I started my preparation. I took almost two months from the base that chapter one till everything I took my test, I look after the video, I took my test, everything. One thing is that I used to review all the questions that was the one thing which I did good at the end of the exam I felt that actually so I completed all the tests and I gave a call to you again. The meanwhile I just. I was in touch with you sharing my scores and everything. In the Feb. Mid I just completed all my tests. I gave a call to you, told me that take one mark, gold mark, we will assess how to go. But then I prepared again and that weekend I took a goal mark. I took all the 230 minutes but still I got 65 mark. 65 percentage actually. So I called to you, you told that it's very good, you can go ahead with the exam immediately. The next day itself I just paid my exam fee and I got for my lucky I got exam slot in just 15 days. So those 15 days I have utilized in better way that wherever I found myself like in some of the topics I have just registered again. And you gave me six mock exams. So those two weeks I continually return my mock exams. And after writing each mock I used to write, as you say, informed me I took mark every day. Morning 8am I finished in the noon second of four to five hours. I will just sit and review all the questions. Wherever I'm getting doubt, I will just go there, take a book or some notes. I will review, I'll make a note of it. This is where concepts I'm missing. This is where I'm missing the process. Every time take a note of it. And then each and every day when I take a mock, I kept myself improving. So fourth mark I got 70. So all the six marks I got around 65 to 70 only. So that was a bit confident for me before date. Yes, I was nervous because I am not sure about how the scenario will be in the exam center. I spoke to you, you gave me some confidence. You gave me some positive vibe. Still, to be frank, the day before exam I did not sleep. I did not get sleep actually, I don't know why, but I did not get proper sleep. But I made myself. You are prepared, you are going to do well. And that day morning I called you, but unfortunately I could not able to reach you. Then I gave you a text. Sir, I will call you as a private co op emp. That is the positive attitude. Then I took my exam. It was first 60 to 120 questions. It was a bit tough actually. What I felt I was taking more time than what I took in mock exams. But I kept myself cool. You can do it, you can do it. But once I completed about to complete my 180 questions, I had 10 minutes left over. Then I had reviewed my questions. It was almost I took 10 minutes for reviewing. I didn't give submit I just want it already almost the time to complete I just close my eyes when I open I am sure I I while attending the questions I got the conference that I will clear that conference I got but I'm not sure about my marks but I got a confident that I will clear so when I opened my eyes I got a Congratulations. It was a joyful moment because the two months of hard work I could see there Then once I came out and they gave me mark sheet to my surprise it was all about targets in all the three topics and that was a very happy moment for me. So it was a very a fruitful journey actually. But I had spent more time on that I could able to spend more time in this two months and your team and you whenever I was able to I want to contact you. You are available all the time either it's 8pm 9pm anytime I could able to reach you and your team Also whenever I needed a support they were immediate immediate response I used to get from them. So I have to thank Info Carrier actually so. Yes sir My ex colleagues they know that I am preparing for this PMP and after I am joining another four or five of my colleagues have joined in that three of them already cleared. They are also PMP now another 2% they are going to write the exams the reason time.

Okay.

In the new company which I have joined they were they could not able to take a home come you could compete in the short time and that too with about three targets. Yeah, they were ordering Then I have referred one more colleague actually he also joined there and he also cleared recently actually. And one more. One of my friend is in Saudi actually he is also taking up the class. He is taking the class now.

Okay, okay.

Who are asking me? I'm just referring in for care. Just go with your blind eyes they will take care of you only you have to give your time. The main thing which I have myself I have learned from the leadership skill how to have react with your team members or how to handle them how you have to be a good leader. Everything that I've learned. But yes, this in my current venture they are not using this process actually. But I could use to implement the small small activities which I have learned from PMP in my world which I could able to implement. Hopefully in future I could able to implement more.

So what is your experience on this?

Frank? Yeah, to be frank, when I completed the mock exam. When I took my mock exams I was wondering how I could Able to attend these questions from the scratch how I have learned this and how I am to other these questions because without my knowledge I have and I have I have learned more concepts actually correct more agile concepts or more process oriented Everything I have learned on they were icy leaf portions. Almost all the questions you have given the review answers for everything. So that was the biggest plus which I felt actually okay, so that gave me that extra knowledge which I required which I am using from the book that gave me those extra knowledge When I'm attending those small questions I would able to implement that. And again when I am trying the mark exams what time I am making a constant missing then I am I will take up the review in the gold market substitute. I don't know how you people prepare that but still that was the biggest plus actually. And the videos more than the video I use the above percentage to this IC leaf those review. I see the road to success also is very much useful for me that was the biggest plus actually. The one thing is that whether it info carrier or any other institute they can just give the materials and knowledge what you can only thing we have to give our time without giving the time actually we could not whoever it is, do not complete this. You have to give you a dedicated time actually for this. That's what I missed out in those two months. Okay, still life I tried I could have, but I didn't. But when I returned I thought I have spent money on this. I I want to finish this. So I used to spend at least minimum two to three hours I used to spend even if not I could not I would I am busy with some other work. At least I used to sit for 30 minutes. I should not want to break that continuity. So I used to sit at least for 30 minutes even if I'm busy on that day. So that two months I used to dedicate some hour for that even if I'm busy. And most of the days I used to give to two to three hours for this preparation. And that was thing Everyone has to give you a dedicated time and you have to you can do it during the training you used to tell their family supporters. But I at the time I did not understand that. But during the preparation actually one day I showed your record session video to my wife.

Okay.

I have to give huge credits to them. Actually the those two weeks when I fixed the exam schedule those two weeks they didn't even disturb me anything whatever they used to arrange them on own. Even my child, she used to take her those two weeks time they did not disturb me and youth good is asked I have to give credits to them yeah Student syndrome Parkinson's law self protection sandbagging dropped button Based on this phi actually we are getting one question.

Actually match the following I have discussed.

It for yeah it's match the following Yes I don't know but the day before exam when I was referring something I came across this I just gone I didn't see any video but I just googled it what is the meaning for that? Unfortunately I got this in exam actually when I Discuss with other PMPs my colleagues all got the same question it is coming the first time actually same as the following type yeah so everybody is getting that question maybe I thought I thought of in I will inform you so that if others definitely this might be useful sure and one more another thing is that this Platinum one and platinum two and Gold four I think I have come across some questions There was some images was not there and some thing I found sure one or two questions actually I informed through WhatsApp immediately you are corrected and I have some some more I have found actually maybe if you want when I found time I can correct that and inform you or.
