Hi everyone,

I thought I will share my success story. I have just passed the PSM I exam (spent approximately 30 minutes on questions) on my first try (79/80!) and thinking about going ahead with PSPO.

Earlier this year in May I passed PMI-ACP exam, so Scrum was not new to me. I had to concentrate on details though that PMI-ACP was not covering.

1.) I read Scrum Guide twice + tried the open assessment and had 65%

2.) I looked at incorrect answers and worked to understand why they were incorrect

3.) Then I concentrated on Mikhail Lapshin's quiz and again worked to understand my incorrect answers

4.) What really made the difference though was exam simulations offered by Management Plaza. For just 27 EUR it is in my opinion a must have for everyone who wants to pass the exam easily.

Can you tell me how different the PSPO exam is from PSMI? I went through the open assessment with 100% score today but I am not sure whether to consider myself prepared for the exam or not.

OK, so I passed PSPO on my first try (same preparation steps as for PSM: Scrum Guide, Mikhail's quiz, mplaza PSPO simulations).

My personal feeling is that PSPO exam was more difficult, it took me definitely more time to complete and questions were a bit more tricky than in PSM exam. My result was 74 out of 80, so not that bad though.
