David McLachlan, I passed my PMP on my second attempt, and of course, I watched your RUclips videos on Agile, Predictive, PMP, and other topics. I watched these videos multiple times until I understood what I was answering. I really appreciate your insights regarding PMP and thank you so much for providing such helpful videos. I also took Andrew Ramadayal's course. I would definitely say that David McLachlan and Andrew Ramadayal are the best for PMP preparation.
Thank you so much David.
David’s videos are the reason l passed the PMP…and my graduate certificate in Project Management
Passed PMP last week.
Enrolled to your Udemy course and listening to your YT video while driving, which I picked up the positive attitude and eliminating technique.
Thanks David!
I retake it tomorrow ( failed it last month).
This is great motivation, and great timing.... you rock, David! Thank you!
Passed on the first attempt using Study Hall at an average of 73%. Passed AT, T, AT. The mindset videos are clutch.
Passed mine thanks to you David. Such a great person and motivator😊
Hi David, I did the 100 Agile and 150 waterfall videos twice. You made me understand the concept so well. Thanks a lot for the humongous effort that you have put in to make things clear for us. Followed you and ARD CONSISTENTLY. I passed PMP this week with 3 ATs. Thanks again David.
I am prepping now! I love your videos - they help me find the weak spots! I also use a few different practise exams and they are super helpful too!
Just wanted to thank you for this channel. I listened to your Q&A videos on my commute for the last couple of months and just got my certification. Your videos were a great resource and I would recommend for anyone looking to achieve this goal.
I failed the exam twice. That’s definitely discouraging. Will take the exam again within the next few months. Just have to regroup.
Thanks, David! Your videos REALLY helped me pass the PMP in 6 weeks!
thank you for the encouragement.
I failed one last year and I am scheduled next Saturday. I have been discouraged and dragging to retake the test.
On the brighter side,I am kind of glad that I failed 1st time.. I have been learning more and understanding better this time and studied with David’s teaching.
I see some of us failed and discouraged.
I applause all of us on trying to get ourselves better in our career/goal. Failure is another stepping stone for us!
Keep going, you can do it!
David , passed the test ! 🎉
Thank you.
My next challenge will be PMI-ACP.
Yes! Be that PMP! Anyone in doubt, you can get this done!
David, I don’t know another way to reach you but I HAVE to thank you. I passed my PMP on my first attempt and I attribute that mostly to discovering your RUclips videos. You make this material SO accessible. I had already completed my PDU course when I found your videos but they became pretty much my sole source for prep after that. I am account head at my PM firm though so I referred one of the PMs I am mentoring to your Udemy course and he purchased it this week. Thank you for your encouraging tone and how well you simplify this very difficult thought process.
Thank you very much 🙂 and a big congratulations to you on passing your PMP! That is a truly great achievement 🎉
Thank you for the encouragement
Hi David, I passed my PMP exam on first attempt. Thank to your wonderful videos specially 500 question from the course. It helped me a lot to get that mindset ready for exam. Thanks again. 😊
Congratulations on passing your exam, that is a huge achievement! 🙂
Hi David, just wanted to share my appreciation - I aced the exam AT/AT/AT on my 1st try, and your videos were a big help in that.
That is awesome, congratulations on passing your exam! 🙂
I passed it one year ago, AT x3 thanks to your videos which really help getting the mindset.
Andrew R course was also very helpfull.
Learn / practice, mock exam (repeat if needed) is a good way to pass the exam.
Dear Friends,Don't worry at all. I m not promoting David here, but honestly speaking I watched only his videos thoroughly. As watching many will sometimes confuse u as everyone has their own way of conveying things. Follow one person. I felt David was very simple explaining things compared to many certified professionals.
Secondly practice tests are just to bring in confidence, as the questions u may face is completely logical. So if u score less, don't get upset or lose confidence. Real scenario is completely different.
Keep up the spirit high. This is just an exam to check how logical u r.
I have prepared within a week and cleared though I have some practical experience behind which I faced in my career.
All the best. All will go well.
I failed my first time yesterday. Your videos helps and I look forward to giving it another try at the end of this month
You can do this! 💪👍
I went through your video and passed on my first attempt.
I passed on the first attempt. It is a tough exam. No joke.
I've been using studying as an excuse to do more cardio, and vice-versa. After lifting, I get on the stationary bike or treadmill for 30 minutes and answer ~10 questions. I'm almost through the 7 hour PMBOK questions video, then I'll jump into the ~11 hours of Agile/Waterfall ones. Exercising the mind and body together!
This is brilliant use of NET time 👍😎
🙌🏻
I failed 1st exam Feb retaking exam June should have done things differently.
Hello @David, I want to buy your PMP exam prep guide, could you please send me link or let me know how and from where to buy it?
I seriously want to pass exact before 1 st July, please guide me.
Currently, I have pmbok 5 with me, going through lot many RUclips videos of you.
Kindly guide me further.
If those grading systems are what the PMP uses, how did I get an outright Fail? 😢
I'm so scared of failing that I took the classes a year ago and am too scared to take it. And I've been doing PM for well over a decade...
Holy moly, upcoming exam on 10th April. Already making plans in case I fail. Maybe it is a sign :D I will be back.
You will pass! I know you can do it!

How did it go?
Am invite to do project coordinator interview, what are the expectations?
Honestly I’m not very confident and I take my exam in a few weeks but I’m tired of pushing the exam further to the right. The reality is I’m a very busy person in a very hectic season of life where I can’t study much. I’m already a high level project manager so I don’t need it but want it to further be competitive.
I’ve done all the simulators and famous people on RUclips and honestly hasn’t done much for me. I still consistently fail mock exams and can’t retain the knowledge, esp the formulas. I refuse to write down formulas thousands of time.
If I pass this month cool but if not then I’ll just give up bc I don’t need it.
I would suggest do not give much attention to formulas and ITTOs, there are hardly any questions on that. Exam is completely scenario based questions . But you have to answer from PMI POV not with your real world exp. Hope it helps you. I took exam on 1st April and passed with 3 AT.
I failed as well and it’s been tuff. I really don’t want to fail again. The materials are overwhelming.
They can definitely be overwhelming. They are a lot. That's why I recommend writing your notes in a WBS or mind map fashion, even if it's in a table. Start with the high level ideas, then break each one down into more detail. Use the Table of Contents in the PMBOK 7 and the Process Groups Practice Guide as your start.
Then do practice exams to solidify your learning. YOU CAN DO THIS! KEEP GOING!
@@davidmclachlanproject thank for the encouragement and your videos. I do appreciate it and I won’t give up.
I failed the damn thing too. Studying now.
The same
PMP became a joke. I've completed it this year, and questions weren't even similar to what I saw on this channel previously. Rather like:
***There's a union strike, and you don't have resources. What do you do?
A. Banana
B. I escalate the CEO
C. I check CPI
D. Disneyland.
In most of the cases NONE of the answers addressed the issue depicted in the question. I had a feeling that they are mocking the candidates for even trying. Most of the topics weren't even in line with the learning material at all.
What are you talking about? I don’t know what kind of exam you took, but the one I took was tough, made sense, and aligned with the PMP exam content outline.
@@Eleanor_Freya I took the PMP examination, and this is my experience, if it wasn't clear from the first comment.
May I know if PMBOK 6th Ed is still relevant? Should I more spend time on PMBOK 6th or 7th Ed.?
When I took my exam in Feb, it was 60% agile and 40% waterfall. What I can recommend for you is to watch Ricardo’s 6th edition summary and David’s waterfall practice questions, they will cover up everything you need for the waterfall questions.
7th edition has just the summary of processes, while it's expanded in the 6th. So yeah, you need the 6th edition too. 7th is like an addendum to 6th.
But you really have to pay attention to the Exam Guide (downloadable at PMI) to understand where they put their focus.
1st!
