I did the PSPO I exam couple of days ago and unfortunately got 66/80... Reading really well the scrum guide, scrum glossary and doing the open assessments is just not enough for passing, if you ask me... ;)

I noticed in the exam questions that there was some terminology (eg. Cone of uncertainty and release planning), which is not mentioned in Scrum guide nor Scrum glossary.

Are the some good links, which would have brief descriptions of differerent scrum terms in a little bit wider scale than just sprint planning, scrum master and sprint backlog? I can handle the basic terminology, but would like to read more from the terms, which are not mentioned in the scrum guide.

Thanks for your responses!

I am using these two books and they contain relevant information

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01D73SRH4

https://www.amazon.com/Agile-Product-Management-Scrum-Addison-Wesley-eb…

I also regularly follow scrum.org blogs. There are few very insightful articles on the topic

Hi Pilvi,

Have you had a look at the book area for Product Owners? There are good books, to mention some of them I find interesting: Scrum - A Pocket Guide, Peopleware, Agile Estimating and Planning, The Lean Startup, etc. If I were you I would definitely read the pocket guide. And maybe taking into account your interest a good book for you it would be Agile Product Management with Scrum: Creating Products That Customers Love.

Regards.

This book can help you (provided you understand thoroughly the background/reasoning):

Scrum Product Ownership: Balancing Value from the Inside Out

Hi
I attempted PSPO and got 82.5% and unfortulately failed.
