I will highly recommend it to those who want to get the PMP passed in their first attempt itself.
Cleared my PMP exam.
Ty Manick Sir and Prasanth
Firstly, I want to say as I had asked you during the training sessions that I am scared of Numerical questions (especially related to cost management or procurement management) and as you suggested if so to mark for FU and there will be minimal so not to worry
Which was true as I got only two numeric questions and I did marked them for FU which I did at the end.
As a lesson learnt (personal note) is not to get stressed about the time and 180 question factor as few questions I took long and few were quick.
I am not that good so it depends.
Questions from Agile were more compared to traditional.
It was mostly scenario based questions.
Hello Prasanth & Team, 'I m happy to share with you that I have cleared the PMI-PMP yesterday with Above Target🙌😃. I had taken the class and had postponed taking the exam due to office work, that is until PMI announced my credits for application are going to expire in March. In a haste, I applied for the exam with less than 1 month to prepare, without Vasu's class, I would not have made it. For that I am grateful to Vasu and you guys for facilitating and empowering me.
Cleared PMP exam in the first attempt with “Above Target” result in all domains. ITechGurus have been very helpful throughout my journey of preparing for PMP. Special thanks to Prasanth Sir for the unending support and Manick Sir for all the teaching 🙏🏻
Hi All, I have passed my PMP exam today. @itechgurus, Chandramouli Sir - thank you so much for your guidance. Majority of the questions were senario based and none of the questions required diagrams or calculations. I took the exam from PearsonVUE center. All the best for everyone who are going to take the exam.
Hi All, I have passed PMP exam yesterday.
@Mouli, thanks a ton for your guidance.. @Fellow student, the exam was taken from home very smoothly and there was none of the questions which required diagrams or drawings. May be a different set might have very nominal scriptings or drawings requirements but I am sure you can manage with the white board provided by OnVenue apps. You can definitely opt for giving the exam from home if you have a good uninterrupted net connection and a silent place! All the best!
Hi Prasanth, Cleared my PMP Exam. Below Target in Business environment.. 😭😭. One mistake I did was not taking our mock exams completely. Our mock exams in LMS is a wonderful tool and people who takes that will definitely get above target in the PMP examination.. I will write my lessons learned in the review shortly. Thanks to you and vasu for the tremendous support and continues push. 🙏🙏
I am PMP Certified!
Thanks to iTechgurus for the wonderful coaching and mentoring. I attended weekend classes for PMP at Itechgurus with guidance of Mr. Prasanth. The pedagogy being followed to impart the knowledge was very good. Especially, I would highlight the post course support and motivation that is being offered to ensure that we complete the certification. They have prepared extensive materials for each and every topic in the PMP course material and the mock tests are top notch. Thanks to all the mentors and the support staff who are motivated to help PMP candidates to achieve their goal!
Finally... PMP® Certified!!! Thanks ITechgurus. No words! It's a wonderful feeling! My dear Professional Family, getting ready for a step toward our goal takes more time and pain. We can still reach! Very Proud to announce this to you all!!! ❤️💖🥳🍫
Success my PMP. Heartily thanks to Mr. Vasu, Mr. Mouli, Mr. Manoj and Mr. Prashanth for providing the guidance which clear all the processes, ITTOs and make it easier to solve more and more practice questions and hence build confidence to sit in final PMP exam. Thanks once again.
Steps which I followed while preparing PMP exam:
1) Recoded videos provided that taught in online classes.
2) Studied PMBOK guide and
3) Practice mock tests( Firstly chapter wise and then as whole).
My PMP preparation started with ITech Gurus PMP training sessions.
After the classes, I revised the entire Daywise slide material provided by ITech Gurus. This is v useful as the slides have the entire syllabus in a precise way.
I completed all the required mock exams by ITech Gurus.
Completed the PMI mock exam. Read RMC exam prep and completed all the chapter tests.
Now I have cleared my PMP.
Thanks Manick and Prashant sir for the support and guidance. The PMP training sessions by Manick sir and ITech Gurus training and learning materials are the best inputs for any PMP aspirant. Thanks once again
Hello,
I am happy to share that I have earned PMP Certification recently from Project Management Institute (PMI) with AT in all 3 domains (People, Process, & Business Environment).
I would like to thank ITechgurus for the course through which I got required training hours to be eligible for certification.
A Big Thank You to Mr. Prasanth and Mentor Mr. Manickavel for the very well organized coaching. :)
Also I would like to thank my family for all the support.
Finally, completed PMP exam in Yesterday and got certified today. Thank you, Itechgurus, Mr. Chandramouli sir, for all the training, coaching, inspiring and Prashanth sir for facilitating and motivating at all times.
I will Strongly recommend to all who is preparing the PMP exam, Please go to test center for PMP exam.
1. All the question and choose answer is completely scenario based.
2. Refer PMP content outline and clear all the concept, First keep in mind as PM, don’t take action and do analysis, Review plan, find out root cause analysis and how much impact on your current project.
3. Less Traditional , More Agile and Hybrid approaches are all tested.
4. I always stuck in two good option and then I used which one is more better option and I select the best option.
5. When I booked the exam and then I realized only one week left and I feel lot of nervousness.
6. Take the 10 mins breaks each after 60 and 120 questions respectively. Eat some chocolate, use washroom and relax.
7. Flag answers for review if you have doubt between 2 options.
8. Time is limited and Don't waste more than 60-80 secs on a single question.
Completed my PMP certification today. Many THANKS to Mr. Prasanth & Dr. Chandramouli sir🙏🙏🙏
No Calculation based questions.. All 180 questions are scenario based. I haven't used my pen at all. Most of the questions are lengthy, unfortunately i did not track the time for the first section of 60 questions. I was tightly running in schedule so i did not take my first 10 mins break to compensate the lag. with 90 questions left i had exactly 90 mins to spare. So i ensure i do not make mistake to reading the questions two to three times (which i did in the first 60 questions sections, bcoz i wanted to ensure that i understood the scenario correctly) so i started to start reading the questions consciously at the same time i do not over spend time. The questions from Agile are primarily from Iterative and Incremental approach and kanban. No questions on DSDM, XP, Crystal, LEan, Safe. When it comes to scenario based, Most of the answers will be right for the given scenario., but its a question of what comes first for that scenario. So it was bit challenging bcoz, you will feel that all the answers are right so u have to choose very carefully on what u will do first for the given situation, which was bit challenging as we cannot strike out the other options very easily. Finally i took my third break with 60 questions and with 60 mins to spare. Thankufully the third section was quite easy compared to the other two sections. I finished my exam with 2 mins to spare. I did not have anytime to review my questions. Also i did not flag any questions for reviewing later, as i know for that fact that i will not have time for that, as i am running in a tight schedule. It was a thrilling experience as my heart was pouncing to see the result, bcoz i couldn't confidently say that i would make it.. bcoz all are scenario based and you need to apply ur knowledge on what best u will do in that situation. So i have answered with best of my ability, rest i left to god. Thankfully i cleared with Above target on all three areas domain. :)
Cleared my PMP Exam!
At a very high level, "You can't make a PMP Prep this easy". Thanks Mr.Vasu Rao for making it this simple. Would highly recommend this course, not only for PMP aspirants , but also for others interested in what a project management is all about. Vasu Rao, has been very friendly and it made things easy for the students to ask questions without any hesitation. He made sure the classes are more interactive, than a one man show. Thanks to Mr. Vasu Rao, Mr. Prasanth & Mr. Manickavel
I completed my PMP Cert today ...thank you for guidance !
PMP training - Meet all expectations. Mr Vasu Rao is excellent on his teaching style. As he has real-time experience so he can correlate each topic in day to day work culture which makes you easy to understand the topics. Staffs are also cooperative, study materials handed over to you before class started. What you expect from an institute, a good lecturer, good study materials, a good class room and cooperative staffs all they have.. Rest depends on your hard work..
Special thanks to Mr. Prasanth who coordinate with me to bring me into right path.
Yes it is 😎 😎 😎 After a months of preparation, successfully cracked the exam and now a certified Project Management Professional | PMP 👐 👐 👐
Not gonna write a big paragraph on my prep stuffs and journey. But at this moment, wanted to convey my sincere gratitude to my direct and indirect mentor Dr. Mouli and ITechgurus.

Hi. Cleared PMP today 😊 Thank you for your guidance.
Mr Prasanth & Vasu Rao,
The PMP coaching session was very informative and useful., you have interacted with every one of us in the batch to make the session active and provided many more relevant examples to make us understand the concept/chapters.
Cleared PMP exams with Above target in all the three domains on the first attempt. I would like to thank Prashanth for being supportive and Vasu for being an amazing mentor and motivating me throughout and solving the queries and being 24*7 available.
Successfully completed the PMP exam today. First of all thanks itechgurus. I have completed the PMP Training and got the certificate. The trainer was really helpful in clearing all my doubts and also helped me with few other queries also. Thanks for all the support.
Finally, completed PMP exam and got certified today. Thank you Chandramouli sir for all the training, coaching, inspiring and Prashanth sir for facilitating and motivating at all times.🙌🙏🏻
My Experience:
Exam was good. Followed a lot of tips given by you for the exam day.
1. PM mindset is the key in answering scenario based questions.
2. Conceptual understanding will give you the mindset by practice. Not required to memorize everything.
3. Traditional , Agile and Hybrid approaches are all tested.
4. Elimination technique really helps to zero down on answer.
5. Nervousness is ok, but overcome it because you have 2 more attempts even if you fail.
6. Take the 10 mins breaks each after 60 and 120 questions respectively. Eat some chocolate, use washroom and relax.
7. Flag answers for review if you have doubt between 2 options.
8. Don't waste more than 60-80 secs on a single question.
9. Results are determined by PMI, so stop worrying.
10. Pray to God and take your parents and Itech guru's
😇 blessings.🙏🏻
Hi ItechGuru and team
Sindhuja Sundaresan, Structural Engineer from TechnipFMC.
Happy to inform you that I’ve cleared PMP Exam on 11 November 2022 as below:
Process: Above Target
Buss. Env: Above Target
People: Target
Guidance from Mr. Manick was very clear and precise. Following are my vital preparation points willing to share with fellow PMP aspirants.
1) Read through Mr.Chandramouli shared ppt notes and video under each knowledge area with clear mind and focus.
2) Mr.Chandramouli is accessible at any time for doubts and discussion. He really solved certain complex questions and guided during training hours as well as through preparation days.
3) Be thorough with the concepts from PMBOK guide (6th Edition on my exam date) read thrice at regular intervals (1-2 weeks) to bridge any knowledge gaps along with Rita Mullachy (10th edition) for corresponding knowledge area.
4) 90% of questions were situation based hence understanding the concept is key for clearing exam. Mostly the questions were from Agile point of view in each area.
5) 5 Mock full exams + all practice questions provided ITechGurus portals are sufficient. Obtaining average 85% in the practice question papers is benchmark to clear the PMP exam with confidence.
6) Ensure to maintain 1 min/question (very, very important) while answering is key for maintaining time + preparation for final exam.
7) Don’t juggle back and forth with questions on the exam date. Be confident while answering the questions with clear focussed mind and don’t get distracted.
8) 3-4 hrs/day dedicated time for approx. 1-2 months with full concentration is sufficient to pass PMP exam.
9) Equally share time among all knowledge areas. Practice one question paper not more than once.
10) Do not panic if unable to complete the exam. I was able to complete 160/180 in 230 min. Be conscious about the time. Try to answer all questions within stipulated time.
You can definitely hit the bull’s eye. All the best fellow aspirants.
Cleared PMP Exam today. Vasu's training was the best. He is very professional and passionate in teaching which makes the students engage in the class. He invested his time updating the slides to cater the audience for better understanding, provides practical examples which helped in understanding the concepts really well. If I do another certification I would definitely sign up if Vasu is the trainer. Thank you to Itechgurus for all the study materials to help with our certification.
Passed PMP exam in first attempt with above target ranges in all domains. Thank you to Prasanth of Itechgurus for giving the confidence that it's possible to ace the exam when I was not very sure and I am glad I went ahead . Itechgurus LMS is very helpful for checking the study resources and mock tests. The foundation which is the training has been excellent.
Cleared my PMP Exam. The training sessions conducted by I Techgurus were really really helpful in cracking the PMP exam. course and the mock tests by Itech gurus were very informative.
A must go with team for these professional certifications!!

Hi Team, Hope you are well. I am happy to pleased to inform that I have cleared PMP with above target scores... Thanks a lot for your wishes🤝. Special thanks to Chandramouli and Prasanth for the guidance and motivation. Excellent training provided with focus on understanding the concepts rather than just mugging up..
Am very happy to share that I have cleared my PMP certification. Special thanks to my mentor and coach Mr. Manickavel PMP for his excellent training sessions and support throughout this journey. Thank you ITECHGURUS for your consistent support and guidance
Hi All, I am glad to inform you that I have passed PMP exam with Above Target in all three domains. Thanks Mr. Prasanth, Mr. Chandramouli for all your guidance, resources, overall help and direction.
I would also like to thank my batchmates Ren, Narendra and Sanjeet for constant motivation and study tips. 🙂
I have cleared pmp exam today. Thanks chandramouli and prashanth for your guidance and support..i studied the materials given by itechgurus. I got senario based questions and most of all related to agile ...All questions are covered which provided by itechgurus video materials. My sincere thanks to Prasanth.
Hi Guys.. I cleared my PMP exam today.. so proud to get certified from PMI.. Thank you so much Mr. Prasanth, Dr. Chandramouli sir for guiding us in this journey...
This was really great being a part of ITechGurus PMP training course, and I can assure that nothing is impossible if you really study and prepare well for any milestone which you want to achieve in your life/career path.
Mr. Prashant and Mr. Chandramouli (our tutor) had helped us to get the PMP certification and I think anyone can become certified PMP if you prepare well with support of ITechGurus. I will share my journey, when I started preparing for the PMP, I thought i would attend the exam within 2 months, but due to office work pressure it was difficult for me to complete in deciding time-line, I had joined the training session during August and finally got my certification on March 4th, 2022. We will have to understand that if you are working professional then you have to balance your family and office work both, but I had never stopped me study completely. Please make sure to study well and follow the sequence for the study material like - you please start with your training from ITechGurus and then a thorough study of Rita Mulcahy and PMBOK and Agile Guide.
PMBOK and Agile Guide itself is more than sufficient, but if you really want to understand the concept then Rita Mulcahy is one of the best books, also the question/mock set provided from iTechGurus is more than enough to crack your PMP examination. Once again thanks Prashant and Mr. Chandramouli for all your help and guidance.
Cleared my PMP Exam.
It was good we all have contributed to best way to start the year 2022.
The training was valuable for subject area. It will help a lot the only thing we have to implement it in real life.
Training materials and training quality was good. We will more proof it by winning the certification and applying in practices.
As we have constraint to complete the training in given time and subject is very vast and lengthy, it went well.
It would have been good if we could have time to practice a virtual project management processes for all the areas. But need time. Good to add if possible.
Thanks for your efforts and help on this.
Successfully completed my PMP Exam. Thanks to ItechGuru for the sessions.
Mouli Sir teaching was very good. He gave lots of real time examples to understand project management concepts easily. The classes were very interactive and very well arranged. The way they have structured the course and preparation is their speciality. I am confident that anyone following it will definitely pass and get the Certification. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to clear PMP certification.
Cleared my PMP. Thanks itechgurus
Sharing my experience:
I took online exam . Where ur system, your photo id is check properly. A proctor calls you and your have to show your room from where u are giving exam . No paper pen is allowed .No particular should be arround you . Once they verify everything they allow you to start your exam.
Exam had single choice ,MCQ question as well and few role mapping questions as well.
You may get confuse in options if you are not well prepared with knowledge areas .
Enough time to ready and choose the answer.
Hello Everyone i cleared my PMP with 3 Above target scores today .I have taken live online course where i was able to get lot of mindset change and his course helped me to think in a practical way and connect the experience with day to day activities which was crucial for my journey to start and achieve the desired goal .Thankful to itech gurus for their wonderful support through live classes and watsapp group network.
Cleared my PMP Exam today. ITechgurus Session is much interactive and understanding since explanation for all the topics with Realtime examples. A little throwback gives in starting of every session will help us to recollect the way we travelled. Thanks for make us understanding about the importance of PMP.
Hello All, I have completed my PMP today. Thanks to all for your inputs. I started preparing only after our classes. 4months of study from Oct to Jan. One time thorough walk through of PMBOk and Rita. Took all the practice test in Rita book and itech LMS. One week before exam, fast forward our class sessions and Rita process chart and tips and tricks. I studied all the formulas only 3 days before the exam. Followed brain dump concept. I am not so great in maths generally, so took the last minute strategy to remember formulas. Since I had project management experience more in Agile and I am a Scrum master certified, that helped me a lot to understand the agile PM concepts in PMBOK. 3 full fledged mock one week before the exam.. I scored around 65%in all the three mocks. Not great but got good experience on how the question pattern and manage time. I didn't get ITTO questions.. Exam was moderate difficulty, most of the questions are related to Agile/Hybrid, leadership styles, conflict management.. only 3 questions on formulas.
Thanks itechgurus
Yesterday I have successfully completed PMP exam yesterday. Above Target in all the three domain in first attempt. I studied as per Chandramouli's study plan. After the online training due to family medical emergency I couldn't able read properly as my family member was detected tumor, and family was little upset after successful operation. Once again I stared preparing to understand better. I had discussed the issue with Prashant and happily agreed support me. Thanks to Prashant for coordinating allowing me for refresher Training. Chandramouli's Udemy course n mock questions are useful to find any gaps in our understanding. Apart from that I referred Andrew Ramdayal's course and revised PMBOK 6th edition twice, online video again and gave my try. I got more of Predictive, Hybrid n Agile questions than on ITTO.
Cleared my PMP Exam. Online training was good and it did not make any difference between class room session and Online session.

Hi team, Yesterday I cleared PMP But some anxious moments. I couldn't get any offline center in Mysore due to some technical issue. I opted from home, Everything is going smooth but suddenly the software wasn't moving to next question, I did all that the proctor told. My advise is to go to center.
I am not fully completed the exam. However i got enough marks to pass. Thanks Itechgurus and Mouli for teaching and guidance.

This time, I studied with a proper study plan and religiously followed it. Took the exam yesterday and passed. The questions were pretty straight forward.
I thank Manick Sir, Prashanth, Surekha, Gopi & Sajid
Successfully completed my PMP Exam. Online training was good and it did not make any difference between class room session and Online session.
Presentation of the topics and explanation with examples made us understand the concepts clearly. Thank you itechgurus and Mr. Mouli.
I cleared PMP exam. I thank iTechguru Mr. Mouli and Mr. Prashanth for such a wonderful guidance and support. Practice questions shared by iTechguru is really helpful. 70% of questions is from Agile and most of the questions are situation based. First 30 Minutes of exam is very hard and then difficulty level is moderate. Request PMP Aspirants to Practicing more questions before taking up the exam will be helpful to crack PMP exam.
i am happily to share this moment with you that now officially I am a Project management Professional and Here i would like to thank few Important people's who are support and help me during my journey. Mr. Prasanth and Mouli from itechgurus without you its not possible,, your Training module & motivations & Daily Mock sessions are Really Excellent, I would Suggest the PMP aspirants to take Training under them.
Happy to inform you that I passed the PMP exam Yesterday 🙂
The credit goes mainly to 2 person for showing the road map and to reach the destination.
First person: Mr Mohan Rao who is my brother working in DXC Technology as Director who showed me the road map.
Second person: Dr Chandramouli sir who has made me to reach the destination by guiding, teaching, mentoring and supporting to achieve the goal.
Study method I followed:
1. Have a target date in mind and work backwards to plan your studies
2. Use this forum to put questions and explain the answers, thereby helping others and ourselves as well by sharing the knowledge
3. Read PMBOK over & over to clear the concepts. You won't get the concepts in the very first reading
4. Referred RitaMulcahyy, PMP Headstart as well
5. Solved at least 1000 questions from itechgurus .
This is the main key success for my certification.
6. Solved all 4 practice tests by ITECH Guru.
7. Done a retrospective analysis of all test answers, looked into areas of improvement and worked on it.
8. Referred PPT.PDF ( Training material shared by ITECH Guru) for quick revision.
9. And above all, kept telling myself that I am going to pass the exam, visualised the opportunities and knowledge gained, etc to keep motivating myself.
10. I have finished my exam 45mts earlier. Be confident in your answers and once you have don't look back, this will create confusion. Also as informed in training don't read the entire lengthy question, read the last phase of the question and this will avoid the time.
Question where of agile mainly contributing to 70% and also 90% related to the situational based questions.
Wish you " All the Best" guys. Who are preparing to take exams !!!

Took the PDU for PMP® from ITechGurus. Cleared the exam today.
Live sessions conducted by Dr S Chandramouli, Phd, PfMP, was excellent, was able to clear all the concepts of Project Management. Also I contacted Dr Chandramouli personally on phone almost 2 months after the classes, he was always available to clarify doubts.
Their LMS with the study materials, practice exams and mock exams were very useful and greatly helped me to prepare for the final exam.
Mr Prasanth coordinated the classes well and was available for any support to clear the exams.
A great experience.
Thank you ITechGurus for such an engaging learning experience .. Great support in preparing us to face the PMP Certification with ease.
Well structured, easy to understand content capsules delivered by Mr.Chandramouli helped transforming ourselves, truly a project management professional.
As you always say, “clearing PMP exam is just the start of the journey”, and you oriented us well for the real world project management challenges and not just for the PMP exam. Thank you so much !
Hi Prasanth - Happy to inform you that i have cleared PMP Exam y'day it was with you and chandramouli sir's guidance i could clear it.Following are my key take away's from the preparation point.
1)Read through chandramouli sir's class video with each topic clearly.
2)Read PMBOK guide one time fully + use Rita mullachy 10th edition for each topic study.
3)90% of questions are situation based hence understanding the concept is key for clearing exam.
4)4 Mock exams + practice exams from each topic from Itech Gurus + Chandramouli sir's Agile practice 200 questions are enough for preparation.
5)Ensure to maintain 1 min/question while answering is key for maintaining time + preparation for final exam.
6)4 hrs/day dedicated time for 3 months is enough to clear PMP exam.
7)Suggest to spend time with Rita book for clear concept + situational explanations.
8)Spend time only on EV/PV/CPI/SPI related question only as i got only 2 problem questions in exam and same with 6 others when i enquired previously from my group who had cleared it before me.
9)Suggest to take exam from Pearson centre as the environment + infrastructure helps to focus on exam + supports to pay attention only on exam instead of worrying on the infrastructure & network.
10)Last Just follow chandramouli sir's advice you will get this cleared at one go.

Thanks again!
Good training and materials provided where very useful to recap before the test. It’s always recommended to go through the training and recorded videos once gain to get more deeper understanding.
The new format I did not get a single mathematical questions or any need to use calculator. Almost 50% of the questions were on servant leader. No ITTO questions, everything is situation and what would PM do.
Dear All,
I am pleased to inform you that I passed my PMP exam today (30th June 2021) with AT/AT/AT Scores on my first attempt. Thanks to Mr Chandramouli and Mr Prashanth for making this possible.
Please find below the strategy I followed to prepare for the PMP exam.
• After completing my 35 Hours training course at ITECHGURUS, I took a week break.
• After a week break, I started going through PMBOK 6th edition simultaneously RITA for each knowledge area after running through the particular knowledge area training audio (provided by ITECHGURUS) and noting the critical points.
• Once I completed each chapter above, I solved the questions (100 Questions each chapter)
• I took almost three days per chapter for 3 - 4 hours of studying per day (I skipped somedays for essential works and family commitments)
• After completing all the chapters, I have started going through the Agile Practice guide after running through the Agile training audio (provided by ITECHGURU) and noting the critical points.
• Once I completed the Agile practice guide above, I solved the 100 Agile questions privided by Mr Chandramouli.
• Then, I started attempting to solve domain-based (People, Process and Business environment) questions.
• It took almost one and half months for me to complete the above
• Once I am confident in the above, I started attending my first mockup exam (180 Questions) in ITECHGURU's web portal. It took almost 5 hours to complete the first mockup attempt. Only 120 answers are correct. Then, I started reviewing the mistakes and made a second mockup attempt. Almost 175 answers are correct.
• Then I started attempting mockup exams from other sources, including Udemy courses and Prepcast. Almost I have tried ten complete mockup exams from various sources with different difficulties levels for nearly 15 days.
• I scored an average of 70% correct answers on the above ten mockup exams (Almost the first five mockup exams, I struggled to complete 180 questions in 230 minutes)
• Finally, I have decided to schedule the main PMP exam. There was no slot available on the expected date. Finally, I got the slot only on 30th June 2021.
Below is my main PMP exam Experience:
Questions are scenario-based and mostly with Agile/Hybrid.
Questions are within the given scenario,
How could PM prevent the problem?
What should be the PM approach towards resolving the problem?
What PM to do first?
No need to memorize ITTO. Understand them. I got the only couple of indirect ITTO questions.
No need to memorize the formulas too, instead understand them. I got a couple of indirect EVM questions.

Cleared PMP today. It was great experience to have coaching from iTECHGURU & Mr. Maouli Sir.
They are the foundation to achieve the success of PMP certification for every candidate , & without having strong foundation it wont be easy & possible to reach this goal.
Once again thank you so much to each & every team member of iTechGurus , & All my colleagues from PMP training class batch 22nd March 2021- :)
Hi Prasanth,
I cleared my PMP on 1st June. Sharing my lesson learnt and approach for final exam -
- Read PMBOK and Rita
- I completed Q&A and received a score of 85 % and above across all knowledge areas.
- I attempted 5 ITECHGURUS LMS Mock questions. In a 60-minute time limit, I attempted 100 questions. I made certain that I got at least a 80% and above in all mock.
- Read Agile book twice and attempted 200 questions.
- Exam day, I just browsed the PPT’s and rested well before the exam.
- Took 2 breaks in the exam
- Time management is crucial and I had planned accordingly. I completed last 60 question in 60 mins and had 25 mins left which i used to review those questions again
- Most of the question was from Hybrid, Knowledge transfer, Scrum, Kanban, Resource management, impediment and blocker, governance, project initiation, agile training. Eg. If an organization is resisting to move to agile what the PM should do? and similar questions and fill in the blanks. No mathematical questions.
- Followed Dr. Mouli's method for everything
Finally, I want to express my gratitude to Dr. Mouli sir for his extensive coaching, knowledge sharing, and for pointing us in the proper direction for passing PMP and excelling with ease.
Thank you.
Hi Prasanth & Team,
I have cleared the PMP certification on 18th May. - Special Thanks to itechgurus for your sessions, guidance, and following your recommendation.
Please find my input to our team:
- I read chapter wise, first PMBOK, second same chapter in RITA, and answered RITA Q&A.
- I went through recorded session after completing each knowledge area as per study plan. Tips and tricks were helpful which given by trainer.
- After PMBOK and Rita chapter study, I did Udemy Q&A. Referred definitions and Index from PMBOK to bridge the gap.
- I felt PMBOK provides general understanding and Rita provide insights, both should be read at least once (I read PMBOK twice & Rita Once)
- Exam day not opened PMBOK/Rita and not even notes.
- During the exam, no break, no distraction. 178 questions were answered out of 180. Major part of questions from agile. No questions on tools and technique and no calculation task.
- During exam, after reading question, I followed the principle seeing the options by D, C, B, A. Most of the times I felt 2 options easy to strike as wrong, from remaining 2 option to choose, few times I am confident to choose correct answer immediately
-Daily 1 to 2 hours I spent from April, I took a bit longer than suggested, but cleared the exam on the 1st time itself.
- You all can clear it easily with some revision, Best wishes to all
Once again, a big thanks to Mr. Prasanth for your guidance, coordination and support.
Best Regards
T.Suresh
Hi all, I passed my PMP exam today. Thank you Prashanth and trainer for making this possible!! 😊 I don't have much to share.
I read the PMBOK guide whenever I can and reviewed the answers in the PDF which Prashanth shared. Also took the UDEMY Q & A from Chandra Sir's course. Didn't take too much practice exams. Just kept simple and straight-Prepare! 😊
I would like to thank ITECHGURUS. Topics explanations were in detail , it's not like PPT reading and explain slide by slide. Trainer was thorough in the subject and each knowledge area session was planned properly so that there is link between the various topics for each day and taking questions after each topic was more helpful as one can easily apply what is learned. Practice questions were helpful where scenario was give and then you have to answer, this created exact exam simulation environment and helped as confidence booster. one does not need to read PMBOK6 to pass the exam, understanding based teaching by good instructor is sufficient and it should be coupled with good practice questions ( study 2,3 times for sure shot results).
Dear Prasanth Sir, Good Day. I have passed PMP exam today.Thanks for your great support.
Thanks to Mr. Vasu, Mr.Chandramouli and Mr. Ram for great professional coaching for PMP exam also good Support received from ITech Gurus team. I passed my PMP exam on April 28,2021. Mostly Agile scenario questions. I have taken 229 minutes to finish out of 230 minutes.
Best Regards,
Mohammed Abdul Jappar.

I passed the PMP exam today with Above target on all domains
Special thanks to Vasu Rao & Mouli sir who trained in learning the concepts n understanding it
And special thanks to Prasanth sir for constant support.
1. Grid wise preparation - 4 grids based on my weak spots and more importance to people domain n agile
2. knowledge area wise
1st pmbok , Rita , Rita qns bank, udemy chapter test and then move to next knowledge area
3. Then took classmaker 4 model exams and scored 80%
4. One major risk which I took didn't give LMS final exam and booked the PMP exam which made me very under confident when I was giving today the exam. Plz do not take this risk anyday.🙏
4. Then booked exam with 5 days gap n prepared n gave it today
About exam
Totally different. Almost 100% all scenario based only, not even one calculation problem came. No direct definition given n asked wht is this process and all.
Actually I under estimated this exam n after giving model exam n this particular PMP is totally different n situation based only for me today
Most of qns I feel came from people domain n agile mostly.
So when direct and were not asked I was little under confident whether I would pass this exam comfortably but I cleared with Above target bcoz of understanding concept and situation I think
One more thing I made mistake I feel is
Time management
Very very important
I took 90 to 100 mins for first 60 qns and rushed with next 120 qns madly without taking a single break. So too much of tension till last whether I ll pass or not
But God helped n passed with high scoring I suppose
🙏🙏🙏
Hi Prasanth & Friends, happy to tell you I just cleared PMP!!
Please find some of my feedback and observations:
- Chandramouli sir's class was very practical
- His teaching and examples out of experience set clarity of many concepts
- Exam pattern of 180 questions with two 10 min breaks is better one
- Most of questions on Agile
- Many questions have two likely correct answers, hence read questions thoroughly
- Only 3 questions on formula (CPI/SPI), even that I haven't memorised the formula but approached in a practical way said by Mr. Vasu sir
- Upto 10 questions to match the following
- Resources provided during training and e-learning is suffice to clear exam
- Some questions are repeating with different sentence/scenario, hence be attentive always
- 230 mins for 180 questions is adequate timing for exam
I cleared my PMP Exam- Special Thanks to Mr.Chandramouli for your sessions and guidance exactly followed your advise.
Please find my Input To our team:
1) I Went through Mr.Chandramouli’s Recorded Sessions (I was only present 2 live sessions due to my work)
2) Tips and tricks (biggest take away) by Mr.Chandramouli
3) I read 1 chapter PMBOK and immediately same in RITA plus answered RITA Q&A
4) Refresh The same chapter next day then, took Udemy Mock test (very useful) for the same chapter (next day)
5) I felt Rita better than PMBOK (user friendly)
6) Exam day no revision just took it with 1 break after 120 questions
7) Important trick: I read the objectives always in mock up similar to Mr. Chandramouli’s advise
After reading question I see the options by D, C,B,A - few times I felt 2 options easy to say wrong I get only remaining 2 to choose , few times I am confident of correct answer immediately
-Daily 4 hours I spent for 2 weeks since, I felt if I had known this class last year I would have cleared at 1st time itself.
- You all can clear it with ease just some revision plus confidence 👍🏻
Best wishes to all
Once again A big Thanks 🙏 to Mr.Chandramouli @Chandramouli Trainer for his guidance and support.
You are giving a great training to the people who are interested to clear PMP. Great job to ITECH GURUS for the coordination 👏 splly to Mr. Prashanth
Team cleared PMP today with above target. Special thanks to Chandramouli sir and Prashant sir🙏🏻✌🏻🥳
Team let me tell you, there was no single numerical question based on formulae and flow diagrams...all 100% situational based. 5 questions on match the pairs.
Also, I read pmbok only single time....just refered the Recordings and attempted all questions...till morning today I was watching the summaries provided after each module. I can say dont do anything else apart udemy course..it is covering everything and helps build confidence quickly.
On last day just watch summaries...thats enough to clear...dont get panic at all.
Hi Team, I have cleared the PMP certification on 3rd April. Thank You Chandramouli Sir and Prasanth for the guidance for earning the PMP certification. The PMP exam had questions mostly related to Agile methodology. The situational questions were easy to interpret when you apply PMIsm. Mathematical questions were easy to solve. Please do follow Chandramouli Sir's exam study pattern + PMBoK + Rita + PMP pratice test. And lastly do practice with mock tests, as time management is most important as time flies during exam.
Thanks a lot Chandramouli Sir and ITechGurus for the support and guidance.
Thanks,
Ashish Dholi

14/01/2021
Cleared my PMP Exam a week back. My credits always goes to Mr. Prasanth from Itechgurus. I took a training in Simplilearn, But training and guidance is not upto standard.
Mr. Vasu Rao introduce Prasanth Sir to me from itechgurus. I got lot of motivations & Inputs to clear my PMP Exam. Refered 2 of my Friends. Thanks
Please find my certificate below:
Happy to announce that I have been awarded the CAPM certification and have also completed PMP training course in ITechGurus.
I would recommend all to not focus on the pattern change but on studying for the exam. Pattern change only accounts for a little more agile questions.
Book a exam slot and that will make you stick to a timeline. Sir’s PPT and PMBOK 6th edition was enough for CAPM. For PMP you’ll need the review two days of agile training also that sir gave.
Even CAPM has agile questions (1or 2 from each knowledge area) and the questions were objective + match the options.
Good luck!
Happy new year indeed!!
Always strive to elevate yourself.
Hi Prasanth, Cleared PMP Exam in the New Exam Pattern.
- 240 Minutes Exam and 180 Questions, 10 Question were Mapping Questions, Got 2 Mathematical Questions, 1 Fill in the blank Question
- Got 50 to 60 Agile Questions from Sprint planning, retrospective meeting, back log and Agile team roles and responsibilities, kanban concept.
- I took Mock Exams of Itechgurus with Agile Question of Mouli Sir.
Thank you itechgurus, Prashanth and Dr. Chandramouli.
January 03 2021
Cleared PMP certification exam today morning at my very first attempt. This exam requires a thorough understanding of the concepts of project management to answer the convoluted questions since it expects you to be a project management expert. Hence, I strongly believe that aspirants should not resort to mugging up concepts unlike what usually works for other exams. I would like to thank itechgurus, Mr. Prasanth and Manick sir in particular for the training which laid the foundation for my preparation. My best wishes to all future PMP aspirants.
Happy to end 2020 on a positive note. I am really pleased and excited to let you all know that I passed the “Project management professional (PMP)" certification exam conducted by Project management institute on my very first attempt. Months of hard work has paid off. Thanks Prasanth and itechgurus
Happy to say that I passed by PMP exam today. Dr. S. Chandramouli sir from ITech guru was my coach. Even after the course, i was able to contact my coach for any doubts clearance.
My sincere thanks to Dr. Chandramouli sir and whole ITechGuru team.
Finally earned PMP Certification..😊
More than a Professional certificate, it was indeed a great opportunity to learn, unlearn and relearn..
Thanks Manick for your guidance. Thanks ITECHGURUS.
Thanking my family and friends..
Happy to Share that I cleared my PMP. Excellent training by Manick sir. He is a pro and we don't need any materials to refer if we are going through his videos. All the concepts were explained really well.
Thank you Prasanth and Manick sir for all your support and guidance.
I have attended the exam today and cleared it. It was really bit hard only, but we should always strict our learnings from the training and PMBOK, we should not answer the questions from our own assumption. if we follow this, am sure we can clear. Thank you itechgurus team Mr. prasanth and Mr. Mouli sir.
I successfully cleared the PMP exam in first attempt and all because of the instructor lead training class of ITECHGURUS. The training cleared my concepts of Project Management. The trainers are really good and experienced. They pay much attention to help you understand each concept much in detail.

-Wikipedia
I take this opportunity to thank My family, friends, colleagues and mentors who have contributed towards my accomplishment. Thanks Mouli Sir.
Hello All – Cleared my PMP today – I thought of sharing it once I have the report card or certification – Tried but, couldn’t resist myself…after all, my training group – Cannot hold the result till tomorrow. I will share the certificate tomorrow once I receive it.
Lessons Learned
- Absolutely no doubt Manik sir’s training was the game changer – I watched 2 times completely and reviewed whenever needed – Examples given will remain with me forever..
- From Oct 24th till Nov 1st attended only the training nothing done in between.
- Nov 1st became member of PMI – next day I submitted the application with the help of Prashant
- Week later, application was approved and scheduled for the exam on 17th but, I thought I really need to prepare so rescheduled to 23rd Dec.
- Every evening I took mock exams in morning times I reviewed all questions with explanation. Overall took around 1600 questions, 200 from PMI Mock. Initially I was hitting around 55% later it got improved and I scored 80% in PrepCast ITTO..
- I used PMBoK and Rita Books only for reference not read completely ( But, I recommend everyone to read Rita or PMBoK )
- Watched Manik sir videos and Process flow and Scott Payne’s EVM multiple times.
- Joined couple of PMP Study groups – so that, whenever I am on mobile, I still be reading something about PMP.
- I did not memorize the ITTO’s which is not required at all – just need to understand the flow and logic.. I shared the ITTO pattern In the group the other day..which really helps to understand the basics.
Exam
- Check in process was straight and simple – just ensure that room is closed and nothing on the desk.
- After check-in I had 15 min time – I got the notification that PMI will aim to launch the exam in 15 min – after 25 min I got the notification saying “Sorry, unable to launch the exam. Click here for help or to reschedule” Panicked but I did not do anything for next 5 min – Automatically, exam launched was much relieved. Do not panic if you see this message and just wait for few more minutes.
- Exam was not tough – Questions were easy to understand but, answers were tricky to eliminate.
- Not too much of lengthy or wordy questions – Except around 10%
- Around 10-12 Agile questions not difficult ones.
- Around 4-5 questions on EVM – very easy ones no need to use calculator
- CPM – 2 questions one to identify the critical path and second one was to identify the free float both were easy – However, I just selected some random answer and marked for review – after 200 questions I reviewed and answered.
- First 89 questions was not tough but, was nervous for first 20-30 min once I picked the pace got into groove... in 72min I completed 89 questions and took the break.. I took few seconds over 10min it started deduction from my remaining exam time.
- Next 111 questions were mix of lengthy and short questions – Manageable!
- I did not mark any questions for review other than CPM questions. So, I completed 200 questions with 40min to spare. I had no patience to review question so just submitted.
- The very next second saw the “Congratulations” message – Was jumping in joy but, there was no option for me to take the screenshot of that congratulations message – browser will be locked. Need to wait till tomorrow to see my report card – The most toughest part in this PMP journey
Special Mentions: - Thanks Manik sir – your simpler way of explaining things really makes the difference.. Even if PMI conducts viva – I can answer them confidently
Thanks Prashant for guiding me right from the beginning till the application submission..
Prep Sources
- iTechGurus Training and 35 contact hours
- Manik sir recorded videos and youtube videos.
- Process flow video on youtube
- Scott Payne’s EVM
- PMBoK and Rita’s for reference.
- ITTO Pattern from internet ( forgot the actual source)
Now it’s time to celebrate the success and what a way to end the year
Firstly, I would like to thanks itechguru for there excellent support to achieve one of the best achievement of my professional career. I strongly recommend itechguru to those who are serious about PMP certification and would like to get it by great success. Note: pls attend all the mock test seriously with set time frame and obviously a hard work. Specifical thanks to Dr. MOULI sir for all the guidance and help throughout the course.
Thanks once again!!!
Haii everyone I cleared PMP yesterday 🙌 it was really challenging ,thanks Dr mouli and Prashant 🙏
I just read only Rita only then the notes during our training
Most questions were from risk management and communication
While answering we need too much concentration , we will get two options look like same meaning but in one word it differ.
Cleared My PMP exam. All the questions are situation and scenario based. It's a good experience for me. Manick sir training and recording videos is very help full. I heared that videos till last minutes before appearing my exam. Itechgurus mock exams is very useful to understanding the process flow and situations of PMP Exam. Thank you Manick and itechgurus for your guidance.. All the best..
Cleared My PMP Exam.. God's Grace. Thank You Prasanth and Mouli..
To be frank, I read only 50% of the book - But, I rewatched the training videos multiple times until I understood the concept. PMI would check whether you understand the concept and Dr. Chandramouli did a great job explaining exactly that! I would recommend going through our training videos to understand the nuances of project management. Every life experience he provided was of tremendous help in selecting the right answers. Guys, I am recommending not to read the book - I did answer several questions by reading that 50% of the book. Unfortunately, I was on a tight schedule and couldn't find the time to complete my reading! Sorry - that came out wrong - I am not recommending to skip the book reading. It is equally important!
I Cleared PMP Guys, Mouli sir: Thanks for all your guidance, teaching the tips and tricks and examples... Thanks Prasanth for branding my name and motivating me for the same.
Hi good morning all... Its difficult to share the summary of tips and tricks. But few are below
1. Read PMBOK till you are clear with the concepts.
2. For preparation breakdown the knowledge areas to make feel yourself better to study
3. You should think as a project manager while answering the question
4. Find the best solution as a answer
5. After reading the question you should identify which processes group the question is belong to and which knowledge area.
6. My suggestion would be we should have end date(exam schedule date) to kick start our studies.
6. After reading PMBOK, refer RITA book for questions.
7. I would suggest if you all are not getting the slots in exam center, go for online not to worry at all.
If any one has any concern, confusion, questions please do call me and am happy to share whatever I know...🙏🙏🙏🤝🤝🤝
ITechGurus provides the best PMP training. My trainer, Mr. Manick., was great. The online classes were highly interactive, and we got all the required information for the exam - from applying for the PMP exam to study tips and best practices for the exam. Overall, it was a great experience.
After 10 years of having a dream to be PMP certified professional, i am proud to say that today i have fulfilled the dream all thanks to ITechGurus and their 100% support from the day1 till the day of exam. The professionalism and the vast experience of our Trainer helped alot in clearly many of the concepts during the sessions and post the sessions.
A Heartfelt Thank you team..keep doing a great job.
Lot of institutes are available in the market, I was in a confusion on selecting the institute, I had couple of calls with Prashant and did my homework on the institute and picked ITECHGURUS.
I started my first day with a suspicious mind, in first 30 mins of class I gained my confidence that I can clear the exam.
- His language was simple, clear communication which anyone can easily understand and no complex words, unlike Shashi Tharoor ;)
- He provided very simple and relatable examples which u can relate and understand the concept.
Overall, I had a great experience and could clear my exam.
I'm Mohanraj Krishnan, working as Technology Project manager @ ABB Hitachi Power Grids, undergone PMP training organized by ITECHGURU and I have cleared the PMP exam today (first attempt), thanks to the ITECHGURUS study materials which helped me to concentrate on key points and the trainer was excellent, he clearly taught the complete course in a simple and easier way, especially ITTO flowchart.
Hi Prashanth Sir, Good Afternoon!!
PMP Journey: PMP certification is my long awaited goal and while searching for the best institutes I came across ITECHGURUS having very good reviews. To enquire more about the course curriculum, I have dropped my details and Prashanth Sir has mailed me with the complete end to end details like Course Structure, eligibility and program plan and finally decided to proceed with the training.
1. Joined the Training Program in the month of October’2020 and it went very well. Manick Sir was awesome and very patient in answering the queries we have during the entire course.
2. After completing the 4 Weeks course, Started looking at the concepts again and due to the work load at office the progress on the study part was very minimal.
3. Finally decided to have a clear Study Plan and rejoined the class again and spend around daily 3 hours for study during week days and good amount of time during weekends.
4. I have prepared my plan based on Knowledge Areas which I feel comfortable rather than ITTO’s wise.
5. On a higher note, I have referred PMBOK 6th Edition as well RITA. My primary reference guide was completely on the recordings of ITECHGURUS which helped me a lot in understanding the concepts and Calculation part. I have gone through the recordings 4 times to understand the concepts behind each KA’s.
6. Set a Target date for the exam first and then start reading according to the timelines will help you to achieve your goals.
7. Personally I feel without setting the Exam Date, You will not have a clear deadline to complete the goal and it might get delayed further.
8. Track your learning regularly and try to ensure the target dates for each KA’s are met as per your schedule.
9. Understanding the concepts play a key role rather remembering them
Regards,
Durga Sinivas
Cleared My PMP! I initially joined another institute recommended my collogues and dropped out. Then I came across ITechgurus in a Youtube video and attended one session and felt this is where I should continue. Glad I made that decision. The trainer was very good and cleared all the concepts and provided all the required support. Thank you Mr. Prasanth, Chandramouli & Manick.
My PMP training started with itech gurus training
1.Didnt refer PMBOK
2.Read Rita 2times indepth and solved all Q and A..Very practical Syllabus
3.Maniks Videos covers almost all the syllabus..few gaps covered in Rita. watched video's.. atleast..4 to 5 times
4.Itech gurus mock1 and mock4.. scored 66 and 73
5.. PMP mock first' attempt 65 and second attempt 77
6..I also gave headfirst mock, Rita 120 and 128..with average of 70
7..I gave exam at Mumbai center..they allowed me to seat earlier then my appointment timings
8.. Questions were trickier then PMP mock but length of questions are similar
9.. Keep a track of time it starts with 240min...u need to solve atleast 30questions per 30mins
10..I had last only 7mins for review
11..Used only mark for review tag...but not very useful for me as limited time was there for review12..After 200question..I was not able to read the congratulations message and got second confirmation from the exam coordinator..
Once again I want to mention Manik his teaching skills are excellent and the different examples helped me to understand the concepts faster..
Successfully Cleared PMP Exam! Thank you very much Prasanth for your guidance.
- Exam is very easy
- Lot of questions from Risk Management
- Got more direct Questions
- Read PMBOK 2 times and took itechgurus Mock ups with PMP Mocks.
- Took a exam in Pearson VUE Exam center
The training session from Mr. Manick was wonderful, it helped in grasping the end to end flow, important concepts and ITTO's. The examples quoted were really helpful in visualizing the concepts & he was patient enough to address each and every query raised.
From the preparation point of view, i started with head first which helped to stimulate the reading process as I am not a avid reader, then started Rita which helped in understanding the flow and itto a bit more deeper. Then read the pmbok 2 times and highlighted the important concepts, words, etc. Took almost 5+ mocks available online and offline. Before 2-3 days of exam, revised highlighted points in pmbok alone for 2 times. Used the process chart provided by Mr. Manick sir in the last day to revise. Practice writing down all the formulas for couple of days so that you could brain dump it in the sheet provided in the testing center. Do some breathing exercises before the exam to calm you down and keep you out of Anxiety.
For the exam, take the PMI mock a week before the actual exam, identify the lagging areas and readthrough them again. Take the mock again 2 days prior to the exam to see the improvement. During exam, do not rush into answering the questions, read out the questions carefully, understand which process and KA its falling under, then it will be a cake walk for you to answer them.
All the best folks.

My PMP preparation started with ITech Gurus PMP training sessions.
After the classes, I revised the entire Daywise slide material provided by ITech Gurus. This is v useful as the slides have the entire syllabus in a precise way.
I completed all the required mock exams by ITech Gurus.
Completed the PMI mock exam. Read RMC exam prep and completed all the chapter tests.
Now I have cleared my PMP.
Thanks Manick and Prashant sir for the support and guidance. The PMP training sessions by Manick sir and ITech Gurus training and learning materials are the best inputs for any PMP aspirant. Thanks once again
Hello Prasanth
I Would like to take this opportunity to say Thank You to you, itechgurus team and Manick sir for the guidance and support provided throughout the training, preparation, enrollment and the final exam for PMP. Had it not been for Manick sir's classes, the concepts would not have ingrained in my brain. The best part is you made me feel that my success is what you are genuinely concerned with. All my concerns were very patiently addressed.
In addition to the certification, in my day to day professional life, i have started to use the PMP terms and concepts which helps me position myself as a better project manager
Please accept my heartfelt gratitude
Thankyou!
Bhumika
Passed PMP exam few moments ago. Heartily thanks to Mr. Manick and Mr. Prashanth for providing the guidance which clear all the processes, ITTOs and make it easier to solve more and more practice questions and hence build confidence to sit in final PMP exam. Thanks once again.
Steps which I followed while preparing PMP exam:

2) Studied PMBOK guide and
3) Practice mock tests( Firstly chapter wise and then as whole).
Cleared my PMP Exam successfully. Got Above target in 4 Process Group and Target in 1 Process Group.
Happy to share my experience of ITechgurus to all PMP aspirants!
~Books referred #itechgurus_guide #Rita #PMBOK6.
~Understanding PMBOK Concepts and IITO''s is Important.
~Take 4 Mock-up exams of Itechgurus and its very useful.
~Take Oliver Lehmann (2 Mock-up exams), PMP Practice Exam (1 Mock-up exam)
~ (By Mr. Manick Sir Blog) , easy understanding for all knowledge and processes.
~ ITechGurus (You tube channel)
Thanks to Mr. #Prasanth providing a great support to clear my PMI Application Audit Process and Special thanks to Mr. Vasu Rao sir , who Provide great training, coaching and guiding.
Thank you @ITechGurus for excellent training facility, study materials and support
Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Value
I passed my PMP exam with 'Above Target' in all 5 domains.
This is Achieved after conducting the Training conducted by Itechgurus.
I am very thankful to Trainer Dr. Chandramouli S who has major contribution to understand PMBOK concept in easy way.
I am more impressed by step by step technique explained by him during training.
His teaching approach is totally different than normal teaching method, he will help to set your mindset to get prepare for exam confidently.
What help me, how I studied and what I followed
1. Only Study material provided by Itechguru (include PMBOK, Headfirst, Rita book, Itechguru Practice Q&A)
2. Every day 3 to 4 Hours continuous study, without break
3. I followed one chapter at time (Read till you get depth of topic, Go slow)
4. Analyze mock test result more than 8 hr of all 200 question which came right and wrong.
What I have stopped doing while preparing
1. No YouTube Video
2. No Q&A source from internet
I preferred to read study material in PDF format on laptop or PC than hard copy and PMP Exam Simulation which content exam standard questions and give experience of conducting 4 hour actual exam.
I Stopped study 24 hour before exam day, watched my favorite movie , good quality sleep for 8 hr. It will help you to seat for 4 hour during exam day with concentration.
*Passing PMP exam within a month study time increase chance to pass in First attempt, don’t extend your stud beyond it due to some reason.
Cleared My PMP Exam!. Very good training by itechgurus Manick sir. Really thankful for making the understanding of all topics with simple examples which will never forget. That helped to memorize each and every topic. 1st session was quite easy and second session was bit confusing. Formula based questions were easy. Managed to get target level. Thanks for all the help Prashant throughout the PMP journey.
Cleared my PMP exam today. thanks for your support and help Mr. Vasu Rao and Mr. Prasanth. Itechguru training was very helpful in understanding the concepts
My study plan was:

My Experience with PMP Exam -
Preparation -
- Attended Virtual class training of Itechgurus under Manick Sir's guidance
- Reviewed recorded sessions once
- I have not gone through PMBOK at an, instead i took approach of referring Head First as its very good for clearing initial understanding on terms being used (Ignored questions as they were lot creating confusion in understanding) and Followed by RMC thoroughly with Question practiced 03 times
- Itechgurus Mock test and Online PMI based PMP mock test tried two times (1st Attempt 61%, 2nd Attempt 87%)
- Done self disciplined learning at 2 hours daily for a week
- No exam simulators used (It was suggestion from one of my friend, not to use for first
- attempt)
- Before exam day just done review of II-ros
Exam Venue -
- I preferred to attend exam at center, as was afraid of Network disconnection, noise, No use allowed for Calculator/ Paper sheets
- It found much easier to use hard calculator and papers (As dealing in Software literally
- eat up time)
- Prior to exam start make sure that name on govt ID and application matches exactly
- (Including spellings) (As for me Middle name was not included in application, hence required correction due which my exam is postponed)
- Exam venue chosen as Hyderabad TS 2, Exam center is very nice (Drawback - No Parking)
- Briefing session, ID verification, Rules understanding takes 15-20 Min, therefore please reach 30 min before. Through frisking by staff.
- HYD TS 2 venue is very clear and COVID regulation complaints (Only issue is that sitting 04 hours with Mask on is very difficult)
- Exam break (If required) is at Question 89 then 10 Min break, although required to review all questions as its freezes and unable to review in post break session (I didn't take break)
- Result reflect on screen, its shared while you are walking out of center
Question pattern –
- Most of the questions are situational based covering Construction, IT, Aviation industry aspects
- For my session most of the questions were based on II-ros
- Major Questions were from Change Management, Risk manamange, Stakeholder Management, Scope Management
- Around 8-9 Questions were on Agile methodology (I was comfortable with it, being Scrum
- Master)
- Equation based Questions - 04 (Consider Question on TCPI)
Suggestions -
- Read question carefully, you will surely figure out option by looking at options
- Take proper rest prior exam (I was feeling too sleepy, as couldn't sleep last night due its
- stress)
- Keep yourself hydrated, sometimes dizziness causes question to read incorrectly
- (Happened with me)
- Module is having a lot of functionality like strikethrough, highlight, comment, Flags.
- engross much yourself in the same, as it eats a lot time (I used only Flags)
- Time your questions and sessions, otherwise will not come to know how time lapse
- Be cool and give with a positive attitude

Hi team, Attended PMP exam yesterday and cleared it. Thanks for all your support Prasanth.
I completed the course at iTechgurus under the guidance of Mr. Vasu Rao. The session was very interactive and useful. I read the PMBOK guide and Rita Mulcahy book by topic-wise in parallel. However, I was not able to attend the exam since I was busy back then. After ten months I spoke to Prashanth that I need to refresh my knowledge over PMP and he assisted me by having an online session with Mr. Manickavel. Since I am from an oil and gas construction and engineering domain, the session was more relative to my working. I read the PMBOK and Read and pass notes of PMP along with Rita Mulcahy's with his online session running. It took me eight weekends to cover them. I then tried mock questions topic-wise. Also downloaded few available question banks and completed them.
Passed the PMP exam today. Thanks Prasanth
Successfully cleared PMP Exam. Thank you Prasanth and Vasu sir for your guidance and support. Your suggestion to read Rita book atleast twice really helped me a lot in understanding the concepts. Thanks Prasanth for providing online course videos and exam links.
Happy to share my exam experience for future PMP aspirants! Good Luck.
Preparation:
• Duration - Approx 3 weeks. Daily 3 hours for first 2 weeks and 8 hours for last week.
• Books referred - ITechGurus material + Videos + Mockup Tests & Rita Book.
• Mockup test – 7 mockup tests + PMI mock exam (very important)
Suggestions:
• Fix the exam date and then drive towards the exam. It makes/ force you to prepare for the exam.
• To be honest there is no shortcut we have to understand the concepts very well. Concepts are well explained in Rita book in simple language.
• One sheet where all 49 process are displayed under various process group is very important.
• Tools and Techniques and when and where its used is also very important. Revise this daily till exam.
• Suggest to take 3-4 mock exam while preparing for the exam, rather than waiting till end. It helps us to understand where we are lacking.
Exam pattern:
Mostly all are situation questions in 3-4 lines in below topics
• 15+ questions in communication and stakeholder management
• 10+ questions in change control process
• 20+ questions in tools & techniques
• 10+ questions in process groups
• 3 questions in Agile
• 10+ questions in Risk management
• 5+ questions in Procurement management
• 6 mathematical question in PERT, float, EAC, PV and EV
• 5+ questions in cost management
Suggest to take the PMI mock exam the previous day so that you are prepared to take the 4 hour exam in the same pattern. Take enough rest, eat well and be positive. During the exam, I had good energy till 70th questions.. after that I need to read the question twice. At 90th question, took 10 min official break, had some snacks & water, relaxed for bit (that were gained my energy back, don’t miss this 10 min break) and then continued till end. Always check remaining questions with time, I completed just 1 min before the end time. Thanks.
Hi Prasanth, As we discussed cleared the PMP exam today in my first attempt.
First of all would like to thank Manick sir for his thorough and well crafted explanations of topics during the training. Once again thanks for clarifying all my queries and doubts which really helped in the exam today.
Thanks to you for helping me filling the PMP form submission and your assistance throughout the journey.
This is how I prepared
1. Read PMBOK book multiple times and got all my concepts cleared, did lots of web searches.
2. Read Rita Mulcahy which is the simplified version of clearing any doubts and practising questions.
3. Practised multiple questions including that of PMP, ITech Mock Tests(took 2 tests) and PMI Mock etc.

Dear Mr. Prasanth, As discussed, Please find below my PMP exam preparation methodology and lesson learned for your reference and further necessary action:
Introduction:
Having vast experience in handling EPC Projects, I have started searching for PMP training class through net and got to know ITechGurus. During the preliminary discussion had with Mr. G Prasanth, Director of Training and Development, I had been motivated to join the PMP course and well explained the whole process for PMP certification.
Based on his motivation and guidelines, I had immediately decided to join the PMP training course for 23rd & 24th May 2020 and 30 & 31st May 2020 week-end batch, which resulted in the final stage of getting PMP Certification.
ITechGurus Training Methodology:
For my batch, I was luck to get Dr. Chandramouli as PMP training faculty, who inspired from start to end with well-structured training course. Dr. Chandramouli was my inspiration to attend the complete 35 hrs online PMP course, which helped to understand the whole PMBOK Guide Process and Knowledge area in detail. During the training, Dr. Chandramouli had given lot of practical examples to correlate the PMBOK knowledge and process areas.
Finally. I had strictly followed, Dr. Chandramouli’s advise to prepare for my PMP exam and gone through PMBOK guide, Rita Mulcahy, Head First and scheduled my PMP exam for 30th Sep 2020.
My PMP Exam Preparation Methodology:
As advised by Mr. Prasanth and Mr. Chandramouli, I had allotted one week for each Knowledge are and gone through PMBOK Guideline by Line along with other reference books like Rita Mulcahy, Head First PMP Exam Preparation.
After completion of each knowledge Area, I used to attempt questions in all the reference books to clear my concept and understanding of each terminology used in PMBOK Guide.
After completing all the Knowledge area, I had tried ITechGurus 4 Mock test and PMP online Mock Test before appearing for PMP final Exam. Most of the mock test I tried to attempt twice as my initial score was less than 80% during 1st Attempt.
Lessons Learned:
During the initial period, I used to read 1st PMBOK Guide and then Head First and Rita Mulcahy and then appear for all practice chap test. But, this did not yield much results, and then, I have changed my study pattern differently, which cleared my concept much better.
1st – PMBOK and Head First then try to attend practice questions on each chapter of respective books. While going through the mistakes I did in the Chap test of two reference books, I used to underline the key words, which I missed while initial reading. Then I used to read Rita Mulcahy and finally PMBOK Guide in detail understanding all the important keywords line by line. Then, I used to attend again Chap test of PMP Preparation, Head First and Rita mulchay. Most of the chap test I appeared twice till I get 90% score.
I am PMP Certified Now! Thank you Mr. Prasanth and our trainer Mr. Manick for continuous support and motivation. Exam is not tough and not easy for me. All the questions are situation based.
1. I read PMBOK and Rita for preparation with Itechgurus Practice test / Mockups and PMI Test. Rita Questions are also very useful.
2. 6 Mathematical questions are directly come from our practice test which we discussed on training / whats-app group.
3. Questions are from all Processes of PMBOK. All are MCQ and answers are similar to each. I read 2 to 3 times to understand the questions before choose the answer.
4. Took exam from home. they give break after completing 90 Questions and i thought its easy when compare with next set of 120 Questions. Finally it was done and i got Congratulations Message on my screen.
Passed PMP Examination, Test was very easy whoever has not attempted in my team, go and finish it. don't waste time. Thanks Manick sir, Ajay, Amrutha to keep me on track.
Though I believe everyone has her own method… I simply follow itechgurus preparation plan..
Lessons learnt should be prepared throughout project, but I am preparing after project delivery. lesson learned register is a project document while lessons learned repository is an OPA) Chronology of my prep:
- 4-5 hr research about PMP, PMI that includes making free account and some free videos.
- Attended 35 hr training by ITechgurus taken by Manick
- Memorize 49 process names, the day sir asked us to memorize. (It helps, it should have done first. Even though I am not good in memorizing things. I did it like a kid roaming here and there J)
- A quick go through of ppt (I could not remember much) min. 10-15 hr
- Quick go through at least 60 % PMBOK 25hr to 30hr (I think waste of time as hardly I was able to remember anything (wordings/definitions))
Note: They use PMBOK wordings, One should focus only in confusing definitions, not all. Remembering all is impossible, at least for me.
- Read head first. it’s easy but not enough (I would not suggest to read all books). Gave its MOCK. Easy and it boosts your confidence. (15-16 hr)
- Rita Mulachy (book + exercise)(30 hr)
Note: If someone wants to read only one book, he should consider Rita Mulachy. I did not read any book properly as it was time consuming and most importantly boring. I keep book in front of me and think something else. I can waste hours together like that..:)
- So I decided to give MOCKs, it kept me highly focused for 4+2 hr (4hrs for solving, 2hr for wrong answers review and doubt clear from PMBOK. I searched keyword in pdf file and read lilbit here and there ) 40-50 hr
- I made small notes whenever I felt.
I think I would have exaggerated my efforts here in terms of hours but all I can say giving more mocks and analyzing where I made mistake helped me. It kept me highly focused (effective use of hour).
Whenever I lost focus, I took one day off from office to bring my prep back on track.
I think actual paper is not very tough, moreover one does not need to have 5 A’s. How it would help. It’s just a certificate. Take it light. Finish it. J

Score Sheet:
Passed my PMP .Thank you Prasanth, without your help and mouli sir guidence it's not possible to achieve the PMP Certificate thanks for ITECH GURUS and chandramouli sir 🙏🏻
When I was schedule my exam 1 week ago in Pearson VUE Center. My name is different in identity proof (Name would be continuous without space). So they not allow me to take the test that day. After that I was contact Prasanth sir, PMI and Pearson continuously to solve my issue. Yesterday Pearson test center solved my issue and allow me to take the exam. Prasanth sir help me a lot. Thank you very much.
26-08-2020
Finally!!
After giving up (postponing) for almost 2 years, I took the advantage of all the extra time I got from working from home to get PMP certified! :)
I would like to thank ITECHGURUS and to Dr. chandramouli subramanian Ph.D, PMP, ACP. You have been an inspiration and your continuous motivation has played a very important role in this success story. This wouldn’t have been possible without your constant guidance and support. A big big thanks!!
MY PMP Experience
On the day of exam:
Generally, the exam was tough, I would say around 60-70% was fair easy to answer provided we master the concepts.
Questions from,
- Calculation based- 1 from CPM and 1 from SPI
- Input details based- Around 5-6
- Tools and techniques based- Many
- Out of PMBOK concepts questions- None, no out of scope concepts came in exam
- Most questions from-Process Change Request. Around 30 Plus
- least questions from-Calculation, I had only 2 for which calculator is not needed, that simple calculations
- No lengthy questions at all.
- Some questions where straight forward
- No question from Agile
- No question from Leadership theories
- I got mix of questions across all chapters. No individual chapter had high weightage
General Info:
- There is a timed break for 10 mins after 89th questions. Once, you finish the 89th question, you will be asked to take a break for maximum of 10 mins. We can resume if we wish to continue the test. But before break begins, we should review the marked questions. This will be clearly instructed when we write the exam
- Online exam was hassle free. No issues at all at any stage! I logged half an hour the exam schedule time to start the process. They asked us to take picture of us and picture of the entire room using our mobile phone and it gets uploaded automatically. Then an online instructor was present whom we cannot even see visually. So, no embarrassing moment.
My Preparation:
- ITechgurus training and recording video helped me to understand the key concepts.
- I printed out PMBOK and started going through the Part 1 of it. I did not concentrate on ITTOs. Instead I used Manick sir’s flow charts which has key ITTOs

Cleared Exam. Congratulation Screen Came.. Exam is not tough or easy. Above target in 4 process group (Initiation, Planning, Monitoring & Controlling, Closing) and Target in (Execution Process Group). Got most of PMP Exam Questions from Communication management, Change Management, Stakeholder Management and in Risk management. 2 Mathematical questions.
Tried PMI & ITechGurus mock test, is very help full. Not same questions reflect in the exam. But most of the questions are in same scenarios.
Thank you Mr. Manick and Prasanth.

Hi Prasanth, I have cleared PMP exam today. Questions are very tough and some calculation questions also there. Understanding the PMBOK concepts is important and practice questions and Mocks are very useful. Special thanks to vasu for training and support.

Hi All, I Cleared PMP Exam today. Thank you Prasanth and Mouli. Training and materials would be very helpfull and on an average i scored 75% in all mock test of itechgurus and i have revised answers 3 - 4 times then schedules the exam with Pearson VUE Center.
07-08-2020
Today achieved a Milestone, Passed PMP
Exam Experience:
- Questions were not tough, but tricky and many short questions, but there are many questions for which two answers seems correct, I selected that one that seemed the better the assumption to be stated.
- Happy to infrom that not a single question from Agile, More questions faced on Risk, Quality and Stakeholder Management and 5 to 10 questions on Tools & techniques Overall.
- First part in exam, i was stressed and could not concentrate better, but managed better in second half.
- I could review all questions, as I wrote down a grid stating the time block 240-210-10-150 etc.. and the targeted answer 0-25-50-75 etc.. This help me a lot to seeif i was on track.
- If you know how to calculate EV, PV, AC, EAC, CPI, SPI, BAC that is enough about te formula part, no need to put more effort apart from that.
- Remember about the schedule break that has been implemented, after the question 90. So you have to consider to keep at least 133 minutes for the second block to stay in average. (107 Minutes for 90 questions plus the review, you will not able to se the first block after the break.
Resources Used:
- Simulator noted from itechgurus and the process flow chart from Manick sir everything helped a lot. Also questions posted from itechgurus whatsapp group guided much too.
Good luck and all the best for all PMP Aspirants and itechgurus team.
Cleared my certification today. thankyou for coaching and guidance.
Experience and Lesson Learnt:
It requires a lot of focus and speed to complete All 200 questions within time. Need to regularly have a look on completed/remaining questions and time left. Better to have at least 2-3 mocks from itechgurus and especially PMI 200 practice mock before exam.
I took the exam through online proctoring. For this online proctoring , need to ensure that laptop system not opening any background app automatically during the session particularly if using office laptop. Need to close such app immediately to restore the session immediately. Also, need to ensure there is no power outage and have good broadband speed. I purchased ups also to avoid to mitigate the power outage risk which impacts broadband internet even if we have DG in apartment.
Thank you. Please find my certificate.
Passed my PMP Exam.
Lessons Learned
I would like to share some learnings on OPT and exam content.
OPT exam setup & activities involved:
1. Online Proctored Test (OPT) is very convenient if we have reliable internet connection. I am having ACT internet connection. No connectivity issues at all.
2. I had booked immediate slot available on the day of scheduling. Slots are available as close as 1 hour from scheduling time.
a. If possible, book your slot with 12 hours gap after concluding preparation.
b. Ensure to begin the exam at least 30 minutes before slot time.
c. We have to download ~54 MB size software & install. Better do this activity well in advance to check compatibility of your system with software well in advance.
3. Once we begin exam, photo of examinee and all four sides of the exam table needs to be captured and submitted (while testing the software compatibility with our computer / laptop we can check this process).
4. Once photos were submitted, Pearson Vue agent got connected through chat and instructed me to show 360O view of the room and instructed me to wait while system would get connected to a proctor.
5. Actual exam started within 10 minutes of logging in.
6. Tools available in exam software were explained for 15 minutes. Highlighter, Strike through, calculator options were available. We have to use online available board to draw things like schedule network diagrams. Not much useful for me. As I was not having separate mouse, I felt little difficulty while writing on online available board. Out of all options, I felt strike through option was very useful when I felt a question was tough. I did not use calculator.
7. Exactly after 90 questions, 10 minutes break option arrived. I took the break and had a chocolate & water. We cannot leave the place for 4 hours except during 10 minutes break. No water bottle / No eatables near exam table.
8. Once exam was submitted, congratulatory message was displayed but actual score report details were sent to my email after 12 hours only.
9. We are not supposed to read questions out. Proctor instructed me, through chat, not to read out questions loudly.
Contents of Exam:
1. No questions on organization structure based & General Leadership / Management theories.
2. Integrated Change Control questions were like questions available in standard mock tests.
a. Understanding sequence of activities to be performed after receiving change request was useful for me to answer questions from this part.
3. Got 4-5 questions based on difference between Manage & Control quality processes.
4. Around 3-4 questions on Kick-off meeting (when & who will handle what in kick off meeting) & phase review / phase gate meeting purpose.
5. Around 3 questions on risk response strategy (Avoid/Mitigate/Accept/Transfer) based on the situation in question.
6. 4-5 questions were on Resource Histogram, RACI, Stake Holder Engagement Assessment Matrix, Resource Levelling etc.
7. 4-5 questions on Earned Value Management. Interpretation from SPI, CPI value combinations, EAC calculations from AC, PV, EV with a situation.
8. 2 questions on calculation of critical path length & float of an activity in a network diagram.
That’s all I remember! All the Best!!!

Hi Prasanth, I've cleared my PMP Yesterday. Thank you Itechgurus and Mr. Manick for training and guidance.
Will Share the Lesson learned before EOD.
Linkedin Profile for reference:
With pleasure, am updating you that I've successfully completed PMP certification today. Attached herewith my certificate for your reference.
My sincere thanks to you, the trainers Mr. Vasu and Dr. Mouli for their dedication and providing greater insights about the topic during the sessions. All of this supported me to clear the exam at first attempt with the WOW factor of above target in all process.
Both the trainers are having rich and extensive experience in the industry, process and knowledge areas which is a great asset for us to learn through ITechGurus. Mr. Vasu's explanation with example for every topics and Dr. Mouli's method of connecting the process, tools and techniques are the best way of knowledge sharing that will make every candidate to understand well.
I want to highlight the overwhelming support of ITechGurus for providing training sessions in a nice environment, study materials, mock tests, video recordings, clarifications and refresh session. It's like "Being with us till our success".
W.r.t my preparation for the exam (from 23-May to 8-Jun), I started with your presentation handouts, followed with PMBOK and Rita's guide dedicating 2 hours minimum every day. Practiced questions in the Rita, Headfirst books and also used an app "PMP Test". After completing all knowledge areas, I did each 1 mock test in your portal (75%) and from PMI (72.5%), then learnt the gaps and the low performed topics.
The refresh training session has provided me with a great understanding of the knowledge area process inputs, outputs and the application of tools and techniques.
Thankyou very much. My best wishes to ITechGurus team to continue the great work and reach more milestones.
P.S: As the exam questions are completely situational, I wish the implementation of the same in your mock test portal will help us a lot for better preparation.
Excited to announce that I have passed my PMP exam in this Pandemic lockdown period and earned this professional certification.
A Sprint completed successfully from the PMI stack within my time-bound of 2 weeks. I felt this was the best opportunity to spend time to study for my career increment.
Special thanks to Manik PMP from ITechgurus and Prashanth for their training and support during this journey. Their communication channel was commendable the entire training period as well after support.
After attending the 4 days of training ... I tried understanding and integrating the concepts which are very important. I went chapter wise studying and when I read integration, to understand it was like "hen and egg" story. I paused, made notes and went to read and understand other knowledge areas which made me understand integration well and the rest of the processes. I made my study scope very clear and scheduled my time table accordingly.
I suggest relying on PMBOK 6th edition and 'Head First PMP"- for any references as their approach is explicit and the best quality-wise. It's better to take a few mock tests to understand where we stand and how well we time answering them.
Do not try to memorize ITTOs. If you run memorize, there is a risk of wasting your time. Try to understand the process flow and you will understand in a more accurate way.
Cleared My PMP Exam today. Thankyou Mr. Prasanth to give a wonderfull training sessions.

PMI® - PMP ID NUMBER: 2763775 (You can check in PMI® Certification Registry)
Hi Prasanth.. The trainer Manick sir is excellent! Humble and patience in clarifying our doubts! I feel happy to join in the right place and I will strongly recommend your institute to my fellow colleagues and friends! Thanks itechgurus for this arrangements.
Finally I did it. I would like to share my accomplishment with you all that today I achieved most awaited project management certificate. Now I can proudly say I'm "Certified Project Management Professional. Thank you Rahul Gupta, Sriram and Dinesh.
PMP exam is online and you can take it from home or office. System pre check is required before exam date and on date date.
Regarding preparations, I read Rita and PMP 6th edition both and attempt all practice questions given in Rita. Also I took exam simulator practices. Mock exams help me a lot and it's really close to main exam...
Done it yesterday ! Thank you iTechGurus for great learning support and allow me to attend the refreshment classes!..
Hello all, First thing first! Let me thank you Mr. Sanjay for the great training, sharing the knowledge with relevant examples to understand the concepts and for mentoring all the time...
Here is my PMP story...-🙂 For me being an average student and working for 14 years with no studies and limited learning beyond work, it become very difficult for me to read and understand such heavy books, however with some determination, I started.. initially it was difficulty to stick to the plan and focus but then over a period of time.. I was able to concentrate on what I am reading!😉 And the training helping me in complete reading both pmbok and rita
My suggestions is to read the pmbok book as it is easy and lot of practice exams questions will be referring Pmbok and I used the mock ups shared by Mr. Prasanth. Rita mulcahy is good book but you will find some difference. As I know very limited Rita book help to practice more exercise. I also established a practice to write down the important topics and to confirm my understanding. I strongly support you how to prepare your own chart especially on the tools and technique which is being used in different knowledge area and process groups
please be clear that whatever you learn from this books training and from the practice exam has very useful to clearing your exams and also have to solve problems / situation using the concepts and standard that you understood & learned. There was no direct questions on any of theory that learnt, very very less or no questions from cost management, mathematical questions (but this might not be the same for you).
All the practice exam and the actual exams had situation questions with multiple correct answers to choose the best one. So please be prepared, composed and clear mind to answering those questions. On the exam I received questions mostly from planning process group related to scope procurement change management and quality.
I tried PMI Mock up exam finally as suggested by Mr. Sanjay. It's really useful and situation based question. Lot of question repeated in final exam.
The online exam experience is quite different. All the four hours there was an online proctor who will be watching you. Before exam, he will ask you to show all four sides of the your closed room from where you are taking the exam. No pen, papers, calculators allowed for the online exam you are allowed to use only online white board and calculators. You also need to upload the four sides of the desk before you take the exams which might undergo for some verifications, before you begin your exam. You are laptop additional devices will be disable and all application will be closed automatically. There are some stick stressful policies which you need to accept before moving ahead with the online exam. Even I was asked to remove my wrist watch and avoid keeping my hands on my faces. Please plan well and b prepared to have back up internet, power, laptop charge, etc
I am sure that you all can crack this exam just following some basic tips and guidelines shared by Mr.Vasu and others friends here. And ensuring that you don't excuse yourself until accomplish it.
Just fix the exam date in mind and submit your application and pay for the exam, you will get it done! Wish you all good luck.
Stay safe, Stay healthy..

Still, there is scope to improve the infrastructure of classroom, Parking etc. I am giving 5 stars considering itechgurus training presentation, Trainer experience and efforts. Thanks
I completed the pmp exam today on Above Target in all processes. I’m very thankful to Manick sir and Prasanth sir for accepting to provide training for the second time. Once again a special thanks to Manick sir for being patient enough in clarifying all the intricate doubts which arised. Firstly, I took up the course at 2018 but however due to day to day routine, focusing was a hard task then. I completed my refresher training one month back. 1) I need complete the exam within 2-3 months post the completion of training 2) Go thru the PMBOK at least more than one time and capture the key points for your future reference 3) Practice ITTO’s and the relation between them 4) Dedicate at least 2-3 hours daily for the exam. 5) Practice the real time simulator(felt it was similar to the actual exam).
Hope that sums up everything guys, thank you for all you support and we’ll wishes! All the best to everyone!

Cleared my PMP Exam today. Thankyou Mr. Manickavel and Prasanth for training and guidance. I used to study 3 to 4 hours during weekdays and 6 hours in weekends. I worked out few online questions.. studied only Rita book. I read whole book 2 times. first i used PMBOK felt sleepy.
I completed my exam before 20 seconds. time is very less.
Exam is medium not tough. But never had time to analyze each questions. Before exam i thought of taking 1 minute per question. but cant go according to the plan... was always looking at time and chasing to finish the exam.
Only 2 are formula based questions other all are situation based questions.
2 to 3 one liner questions.
Thank itechgurus
Hey all, happy to inform that I cleared pmp today :-) thanks Mouli sir. vasi sir and prasanth for all the guidance :-)
Below is my prep plan and journey for cracking PMP.
I have decided to go to PMP certification in November. As soon as I decided, I searched for good training institutes and came across iTechgurus which has very good reviews. Prashant gave me good info on the expectations from the course structure and the exam outline. I have joined the training.
1. After the training, I immediately started reading PMBOK 6th edition everyday. Targeted to complete each chapter a day to understand at the summary level. Completed this by end week of December.
2. After completing it, I have re-read PMBOK along with RITA and solving the questions in RITA. I targeted to complete each chapter in 2-3 days (with 3 hours each day). I didn’t read Rita in detail as it is too wordy. I skimmed through the topics which were either tough or the ones which I didn’t understand. Rita questions are really tough and tricky. Don’t get discouraged if you score less than 70% in those tests for the first time should be good enough. Simultaneously, I solved questions from the study material provided. Also, I didn’t remember the ITTOs but tried to understand the underlying logics. For example, direct and manage work provides with deliverables, which will become input to control quality to give verified deliverables, which in turn will become input to validate scope. My advice is not to spend much time on Rita as it provides too much info which isn’t necessary.
3. While doing point 2, around Jan 1st week, I felt my prep is going well and filed my application which got successful without audit. By Jan end, I completed point 2 and felt confident to keep the exam date on 25 Feb.
4. After that, I started writing mock tests, the ones iTECHgurus provided, the ones on PMP mentor app, oliver 100 and 200 questions were the major ones. Once you book your exam, PMP gives you one mock test and it is extremely useful as the format of questions match mostly. Write that at least 2-3 times
5. After this, I read PMBOK again, this time, much more detailed and each line to miss if anything is overlooked in the learning process. On a whole, I read PMBOK 3 times and I suggest everyone to do it
6. One week before the exam, I prepared for 6 hours a day at least and focused on mock tests again and solved RITA questions again. During this revision I went through all my notes and the knowledge areas where I was weak
Key pointers that I followed:
• I maintained a google sheet where I noted down all the pointers to be remembered so that I can refer it anytime
• Whenever I solved mock tests, I tried to guess answer without seeing options. Also I noted down the questions and answers where I was not confident or went wrong; so that I could refer them later
• Try to solve as many questions as possible in the last 2 weeks before exam. This will help you understand the scenario much better. Install PMP mentor app on your mobile and try to look at it whenever you are free
• Continuous prep is essential so that you don’t lose track on the preparation. I took a week’s
break in between due to illness and it took me a while to get back on track
• As Mouli sir said in the training, you need to read PMBOK 3 times to be confident. Exam doesn’t go outside PMBOK in terms of the concepts, but it will try to put you in scenarios in those concepts
• Follow I want to be a PMP group in linkedin, it an active group and try to solve questions posted by members in that
• Keep target dates on completing each module or course and track it rigorously
• During my study, I took breaks that really helped my concentration. I used to go out during weekends occasionally so that I don’t feel the prep is overburdening me and it kept me relaxed
Hope this helps for PMP Aspirants!

I completed the PMP certification Today. Thank You Prasanth & Itechgurus !
I prepared for the exam mainly using PMBOK guide, and read once both Rita Mulchay & PMP Head first. The Rita & Head first will give you a different perspective.
And on preparation front, I spent 2 hr a day especially early mornings. Closer to exam I increased it to 4 hours, it was tough to manage with busy schedules.
On PMP exam perspective, I consumed all the four hours, it was one minute left when I clicked the 200th question.
And Questions was mainly on change & stake holder related and couple of earned value management questions, one CPM related, two math questions one in procurement and one in cost estimates.
Thank you for the support and my sincere thanks to Mouli Sir.. His class where eye openers in many topics, and his notes where really helpful. Please find the attachment of my certificate.

Got it today! I am PMP Certified Now! Would say PMP exam is not tough or not easy.
My Experience: 2 Hrs preparation day, Read PMBOK and Rita Guide, Took mock ups of Itechgurus, Rita and Oliver Lehman. PMI’s 200 mockup questions are very important, i took test 3 times for the same 200 question. Then only i got the PMI’s rhythm to answer questions. I guess 60% of main exam question scenarios are same with this 200 questions. 1st time i got 54% 2nd time 81% then 100%. For PMI mock up try to sit full 4 hours with minimal distractions, i found that iam getting tired or diverted after answering 60 to 80 questions so i planned my break prior to exam, took break after completing 60th, 120th, 180th questions. There was one critical path calculation question and one formula based. 4 or 5 from agile. I flagged almost 25 questions for review, for me i had 15 min to review the flagged questions and thats it. Hope u will find something helpful from this, thank you
Hello guys, thanks for your wishes. I passed PMP exam today, my performance is above target in all process group except closing wherein I am on target. Here is my experience of the exam. Difficulty level of the exam was moderate to tough. Some questions were really tricky and were making me think that all options are wrong but when I start reading between the lines I started understanding where the question is pointed at. The questions asked in the exam were trickier than what we expect.
Regarding ITTO, there were no direct question on input/outputs, but I got 4-5 direct questions on tools and techniques-like what tools you will use in particular case. There are 7-8 questions which were directed towards input/outputs. So bottom line is, if you understand ITTO nicely, you can bag at least 10 marks easily (but understand them, no need to memorize). Only two mathematical questions were asked- one was, find out critical path and other was to calculate EMV. Both the questions were very easy. No problem on earned value management/variance analysis. No Question from framework chapter. 5-6 questions from Agile.
I can recall, there were many questions from change management. At least after every 5-10 questions I was seeing a change management question, of course they were asked in different knowledge areas perspective. The challenge here was, as per PMBOK, we don’t study change management particularly as it is not a separate knowledge area, but it cuts through all knowledge areas, good understanding of monitoring and controlling process group helped. After change management, most of the questions were from Risk management, Communication management, Stakeholder management. thank itechgurus
Cleared PMP Exam. Exam is good and scenario based. There is time constraints. I have only 2 minutes let when i was completed my exam. thankyou for all your support. I used PMBOK, Rita book for preparation and took some Mock test shared in our whatsapp group. PPT Shared by Sowrirajan is good for preparation. Thanks
PMI ID: 4229570
Result Sheet:
Successfully completed my PMP Certification Exam. I got Above target in 4 Process group and Target in Monitoring and Controlling Process group. Most of the question from Stakeholder Management and situation based. One mathematical question and 10+ Questions from agile process. I read Rita and PMBOK guide. Thank you.
God's Grace! Very special thanks to ITech Gurus. Kick started PMP exam preparations with ITech Gurus. Attended the classes during weekends. Especially thanks to Sri Dr. Chandramouli and Prasanth for guiding me and motivating me to appear for the exam. Sri Dr Chandramouli Sirs classes is a booster for the preparations. He shares PMBOK and PMIsm more practically. Training is more informative and also guides you from the exam preparation stand point. I just followed the same approach. I studied PMBOK Knowledge areas and simultaneously referred Rita for more clarity and questions. As i finished each KA took the questions from ITTech gurus materials, Udemy (DrCMS) and Rita and go back to the books to clarify and started to integrate all my learning and did brain writing where ever required. God's grace was lucky enough to get 200 mock questions from PMI itself when i booked the exam as an offer. This questions also helped me to understand from PMI perspective. Preparation will never end until you fix a date. So finalized my exam dates 3 days before and applied leave for prepping. Thanks to Prasanth for timely help. The way he helps the candidates and support is very appreciative. He answers at any point in time of your preparation.
My Experience:
-
Questions are situation and scenario based.
-
Need not to memorize ITTO. Understand them.. not to worry too much on this.
-
Read / PMBOK and apply suitable logic in exam questions. Especially for Procurement's, risks, schedule, communication.
-
Numerical are easy. Understand the formulas
-
Ensure to go through the ECO from PMI website it will help you realize few questions.
-
Agile there are few questions.but did not worry about. But choose answers which you feel correct (logic /experience).

My experience with itechgurus has been amazing. This is the fifth course that I have done from here and all the courses provide the best quality knowledge. Machine Learning course content was wide and deep. It covered algorithms, Python programming, Mathematics, and Statistics. It also provided project support, I got 14 different projects. My customer support experience has been fantastic as within seconds or minutes, I have been provided with solutions and all my issues have been resolved to my full satisfaction. The faculties are well AI-ML Authors, educated, well experienced, humble, kind and eager to teach things. :-)
It was a great learning experience in ITechgurus. The hands-on assignments and the various resources provided by ITechgurus is excellent. The sessions were simply awesome. The trainer was so successful in keeping the class with more practicals, covered all topics in such a short span and majorly ensured that the entire class was moving forward together in spite of the known time constraints. My special thanks to our trainer Mr. Naresh for his interest and dedication. Thanks once again to ITechgurus.
Nowadays, Machine Learning is a "BUZZ" word – very catchy and bit scary for people who don’t know much about it. The ITechGurus team makes sure people from any background can complete the course with a perfect understanding. They have designed this course in a very detailed manner so that students get comfortable with the subject quickly. My trainer, Mr. Mouli Sir, explained every topic rigorously with 7 different project. Really excellent team. Thanks
ITechguru is a great start for the freshers as well for the experienced person who wants to get into a data science and machine learning job. Trainer Mr. Mouli is a author of machine learning published by Pearson and we get more detailed ideas on the concepts and exercises with lo of practicals. I could finish my Machine Learning advance course very easily with good project exercise. Got a offer in IBM as Machine Learning Researcher. Thanks ITechgurus
Cleared my PMP Exam. Thankful to itechgurus, Mr. Prasanth and Mr. Rao Sir for their excellent coaching and support. Exam is little tough, all the questions are situational. Most of the questions from Stakeholder Management. No mathematical questions. 10 to 15 Questions from Agile Concepts and I hope, these agile questions are not affect my score. Because, Out of 200 Questions, PMI take 175 questions for result audit purpose, Remaining 25 are not consider for result. Thanks

Successfully completed my PMP exam today! Thank you itechgurus.
My Experience with PMP Exam:
Section I
The examination is very stressful, especially the 2nd half when you are almost drained of mental energy. This is the point where you need to take a break for atleast 5 minutes and don't think about the exam, just relax.
240 minutes to answer 200 questions is not enough time for me - works out to 1 minute 20 seconds for each question. Even the simple one's took me more than a minute unless you are very confident.
Every 50 questions (or whenever you feel like), close your eyes and relax for 30 seconds to a minute.
There was no time for review (My exam started at 12:30 pm & I was able to complete it only at 4:25 pm).
Try not to mark questions for review. If in doubt, just skip the question (save those precious seconds). Once you complete the 200th question, the system will prompt that you have X number of questions incomplete. Review them if you still have time or as a last resort and if you don't have time, then take a guess, but do not leave any questions unanswered.
Do not Rush, you will have almost equal balance of one liner question and the lengthy one's. Believe me, the one liner's were the most difficult, as there were not much information provided for you to take a decision (unless you know the PMBOK guide letter to letter, or word to word.)
Most of my questions (70%) were "What should a Manager Do".
Please remember that you will be scored not on 200 questions but 175 questions only, the remaining 25 are called "Pretest Questions" and not considered for scoring. I could easily identify these questions (50%), as most were related to Agile, Scrum and were mostly direct questions - What does a Scrum Master do if the Schedule is getting delayed. The reason I could identify these questions was, my clear understanding of the PMBOK guide. Honestly, I did not spend more than 15 seconds on these questions, as they did not make any sense to me or light a bulb!. (Please note that this is not a recommended strategy, it worked for me, but might not work for All, get your basics right to do this).
Section II - Books Read:
PMBOK Guide - went through it once, cover to cover and made my notes.
ITechGurus PPT - Please go through this again and relate to examples given during our classes, use this as a refresher.
Rita Mulcahy - I went through this book twice. Although I did look at other materials and authors, but I found this book to be the most related to PMBOK guide in terms of structure, language and information.
Depending on your interest & understanding, shortlist any 1 book along with PMBOK guide, do not go through 10 different sources, this will lead to confusion, and information overkill.
Section III - Mock Tests:
James Hanner - I found the tests by James Hanner the most close to the pattern & type asked in the PMP exam.
The mock tests were really useful as the answers are explained very clearly, mostly importantly, the explanation as to why the other 3 options are not correct are also explained, this was the best part.
PMI website -
I registered on the PMI website mid Dec and took the membership, it cost me around Rs.10k.
Once you register yourself on PMI website, they offer you a mock test of 200 questions. They claim that these questions are actual questions asked in previous PMP exams (I'am sure this must be true, as it is from the PMI website). These questions will give you the actual feel of the exam. I took the test from 12:30 am to 4:30 am and got 69.5%. Result was Fail as the passing was 80%.
One good thing about the test was, you can go back and review the answers and also take the test as many times as you want. The questions remain the same but the order is changed.
Note: please take this test only after you have completed section II above.
Project management website - projectmanagement.com:
Once you have completed your registration process (Free), there is a section called PMChallenge in PMI. These questions are very basic, but a great way to test your fundamentals. Not really recommended as a full time study, but whenever you have time to spare, treat this as a video game and take the questions. If nothing else, it makes you feel good. You also earn badges as you keep completing the tests. Unlimited questions and answers are provided.
Note: Do not waste too much money on Purchased mock or sample tests. itechgurus mock exam, PMI Mock exam and James Hanner Exam is nough. Once you have completed section II and are confident, take the PMI test discussed above and/or one more test from some reliable source. Ensure to complete these tests in 1 sitting, this will help gauge your mental & physical endurance.
Some tests make you feel miserable, hence avoidable. They are structured like you are going to Mars and have to make your own Rocket at home!. Instead of motivating, they demotivate you.
Thankyou itechgurus for guiding me in right way!

I cleared my PMP Exam. Attached my certificate below for your reference. Thanks to Itech gurus. I would like to thank God first, then Manick and my husband who introduced PMP to me and my two small kids and finally my mom who took care of my kids for the last two days and on the exam day as well. Need to thank the prayers of my family especially my niece.
My score in PMP Exam:
I got Above target in Initiating, Target in planning, executing,monitoring and controlling, below target in closing.
Books referred:
- PMBOK 6th edition
- Rita Mulcahy 9th edition
- Itech gurus book
My experience:
Initially, I heard about this exam only through my husband who said that its a tough exam though it's a multiple choice pattern. I started to google about the exam training centres and found Itechgurus. I spoke with Prashanth. And post that I started to receive messages via watsapp about people who cleared PMP exam. I was very much surprised as lot of people cleared PMP via Itechgurus and I actually doubted them. But still I had no other go and finally made the payment. The training given by this team was good with real time examples. The watsapp group which he created was very active as he posted questions on a daily basis. And would also like to thank him for supporting me in filing the application. I continued to study for few days while travelling to office by bus eventually I dropped it by losing interest. Suddenly heard the news that PMI is going to change the content and exam type. I felt that it's good for me to complete the certification by then. So I made up my mind, Prepared for a months and gave it a shot. Greatly I cleared my exam.
Lessons learned:
1) Take at least two full time mock test to ensure time management as I didn't take one. I took only fifty questions mock that too using a paper print and not in the system and corrected it immediately to check why my answers were wrong. Almost I practiced 600-700 questions in this way. I completed the exam on time as I took much time for the first 50 questions then I had to be very fast for the rest. I didn't have any time to check the "marked for review" questions.
2) Preparation should be regular i.e., on a daily basis. I know it's really tough as we need to manage family and work life along with this. Luckily, I was in my maternity leave though I had to take care of two kids. But still I prepared few minutes here and there (when they sleep during the night, early in the morning and during the noon time)
3) Need not by heart anything but you should know how all the processes are interrelated with each other. Know the concepts and learn. The flowcharts of Manick sir for all the process groups helped a lot.
4) I was little tensed initially and was repeating the first few words of the questions without moving any further. Should not be nervous. Be relaxed.
Exam tips
1) This exam is to test your real time experience in project management. So all the questions were like "what would be the best thing to do as a project manager in a given situation ?" and " what is the tool and technique that a project manager should use in a given situation?" and "what is the document a manager should refer to in a given situation?" To answer these questions, one should know all the project documents and tools and techniques.
2) You would be able to eliminate two choices but to eliminate the third one, concepts play an important role. So one should understand the concepts as to what process comes after what process.
3) Think that the project is going good unless it is stated otherwise in the questions.
4) Few minutes will be provided to read the exam instructions. Try to read the instructions fast and save sometime to write the dump. By doing this, you would not waste the exam time to write the dump.
5) Approximately 10-12 questions were mathematical related. However, questions were based only on PMBOK guide. I hope that we need not worry about the exercises related to contracts in Rita as I didn't get one from those.
6) Only very few wordy questions for me. However, I got almost 6 questions related to kick off meeting and thank God I asked about this topic in the group just a week before the exam and I was able to answer those questions only based on those discussion.
7) Read the chapter 15 given in Rita as it will help you make strong especially the tips portion.
8) Study the professional and social responsibilities chapter in full and try those exercises as our understanding might be different on those concepts and this would also help us in real life.
Thanks to everyone who supported me in getting this certification especially Manick Sir and all the best for people who are preparing for the exam.
Thanks

Had very great start to the introduction of PMBOK 6, the syllabus and a very deep level understanding of PMP aspects.

The 3 days training program was flawlessly coordinated by the entire team of ITechGururs. Keep up the good work! As for the training delivery, Chandramouli is an excellent trainer and shared in depth insights of the Agile and Scrum project management lifecycle. The three days of training were well spent and fruitful. I highly recommend this training for all PMI ACP aspirants.
Say thank to Itechgurus, I cleared PMP today. PMP Exam would be little tricky, Questions are from PMBOK. I took 45 seconds to 1 Minutes per question to finalize the answer. PMI gave review option after completion of exam, So we can change the answers if any doubt in questions. Take 3 days of PMBOK preparation and try 2 mock-up exams. Teaching and mockups is good. Thanks Itechgurus team
Has been a great training. Thanks to trainer for taking thru all concepts along with the illustrations. Has been an engaging session throughout. Boosts my confidence for the exam. Kudos Mouli Sir for the examples and preparing approach.

I had PMP training conducted by Mr. Vasi Venkataraman Sir, training was very interesting , loved to attend the training , specially the classroom training grabbed our attention by trainer . Trainer took us through various quiz & puzzles which made training even more interesting. Trainer was very passionate about the Topics & had very good interactive skills. As a person , Mr. Vasi is very down to Earth , fun loving & Humorous . Thanks for everything we got from ITechGurus.
Very nice sessions, every manager should attend these classes. Trainer just won’t take the concepts he ensures to change our thought process in all aspects that we look at either could be at professional or personal....Before attending sessions I was not even confident enough to give a try to PMP Certification but sessions and instructor made aware how to set this target to accomplish with structured ways of learning which was encouraging, motivating.. QUALITY MEANS - “MEETING REQUIREMENTS” and this class provided more than requirements..Thanks a lot...
