I made a deal with my employers, they’d provide me time and funding and I’d pass some project management training to help with task related to that role.
I’ve been doing project managment for years already and it’s a subject I am confident in. The course was easy for me since I found one geared towards my learning style.
But I got too confident and suggested I could pass the certification exam. I havnt had an exam since high-school and I did pretty badly at those.
The problem is that the questions are mostly scenerio based and I am taking things too literally, focusing on the wrong detials, or considering things from the wrong perspectives. It’s driving me crazy because I know what I am doing and I have a lot of pressure to succeed, but this poorly written exam could prevent me from achieving it.
Does anyone else have this issue or know any preparation resources I could use to help me intrupet these things better?
Is the exam exclusively on paper or is there a verbal option? Paper exams can be stressful for anyone, so if you find that explaining things to a person much easier, perhaps you can ask for an accommodation to take the exam with a proctor verbally rather than written. Good luck!
