Passed PSM I with 97,5% experiences

congratulations

Congrats!

Congrats Vladimir!

I want to take PSM 1 as soon as possible.

For practice: I have read Scrum Guide 5-6 times, did only Scrum master open assessment and have obtained 100 % almost all the times but offcourse not in less than 5 minutes like you.

From your blog, i could understand that going through PO open assessment and Nexus Guide would also be helpful...Could you please help me with more tips...please

congrats! what do you plan to do next?

Congrats Vladimir!

I have also cleared PSM I certification with 76/80(95%) two days back.. I would like to share some of my

preparation experience.

I think focused study for 2 weeks is sufficient for clearing this exam.

I have found following resources very useful in clearing:

1.Scrum guide : each and every statement is important. It is important to understand its meaning,

reasons behind each statement.

2. Scrum training material by management plaza

It is very nicely framed material. I have studied it for multiple times.It is free on following site

http://mplaza.pm/product/scrum-master-training-manual/

3. All the open assesments at scrum.org. I have solved assesments given for PO and Development also.

These are helpful for clearing our concept.

4. Free sample test

5. Read the blogs from various sites. I really got very useful tips on those.

one I found useful is

6. Last but important. I got a lot of help from paid sample tests from mplaza.

https://mplaza.pm/product/psm-preparation-practice-test/

I got coupon code "manas-agile" and got 20% discount.

These tests are very similar to real ones. I have solved 3 sample tests for atleast 2-3 times and it

helped a lot!!! I felt confident after giving these tests.

All the very best!!!!!

Thanks Neha for the valuable information! I will definitely try these before exam.

Hi all...

Congratulation Vladimir !! :)

Reading the comment here, I want to share my experience during my PSM 1 certification.

Please click: Preparing Your Professional Scrum Master 1

Happy reading :)

@Nick I am preparing now for the PMP exam.



I have desires to go deeper into Scrum and write more about it on my blog, but I want to hurry with PMP because new PMBOK is coming out and then it will take some time until all the preparation materials are updated.



I do not plan to take any more certificates about Scrum as I do not see them relevant for my career.



 

Thanks for your tips; exteremely helpful!

With just under a year PO and SM experience I failed the PSM I last month.

Focusing on the tips above and especially on the MPlaza mock exams for the last week made a difference:2 days ago I passed the PSM I wih 95%, this morning I passed the PSPO I with 91%.

My next target is SPS :)

Thanks Vladimir for all your useful tips!!!

Good luck with your PMP certificate.

Congratulations on your certifications @vladimir, @pratibha, @ronJansen. I hope you all succeed in your future plans of profession as well. all the above comments are of great help for me to go through before taking the certification exam for PSM1. Any suggestions and advises on cracking PSPO?

Thanks & regards,

Arifali Shaik.

Hi,

I attempted PSM1 certification today and failed, got 82.5%.

I went through Scrum guide and taken open assessments many a times securing almost 100% each time.

Unfortunately, I didn't clear. But I will again try with more preparation as suggested by above people and make sure that I clear next time.

Thank you for your guidance.

Followed tips in this thread and passed my PSMI assessment at first attempt today with 95% of score, and so want to share my experience here.

1. Read the Scrum Guide more than 3 times between practicing different assessments; read the Nexus guide once, along with the free training manual from mplaza

2. Took the open assessment many times till be able to constantly receive 100% of score

3. Took the free assessment here several times

http://mlapshin.com/index.php/scrum-quizzes/psm-learning-mode/

Btw, this is a good one, donate a few dollars if you like it.

4. Took the paid simulation test from mplaza, it looks that they provides coupon over and over time, so don't forget to do a simple search for it. I saved 5 pounds with few clicks. The introduction to the real assessment, and the tips for preparing for it, are also very helpful beside the sample tests, I suggest everyone spending some time to read through them rather than just taking the sample questions.

So, that's it! Good luck everyone.

Cheers,
