Instructions for Taking the Exam

 

Preparation

• Find a quiet place without distractions to simulate real exam conditions.
• Ensure a stable internet connection if taking the exam online.
• Have paper and pencil handy to take notes (e.g., to sketch flow diagrams or story maps), though not required.
• Monitor the clock to manage your time: you have an average of 1.5 minutes per question.
• Familiarize yourself with the PMI-ACP® ECO to understand domains, tasks, and enablers.

 

During the Exam

 

Read carefully: Each question has 4 options (or alternative formats such as drag-and-drop). Select the best answer based on PMI® agile principles and practices.

 

Manage your time: Don’t spend too long on a single question. If unsure, mark it and return later if time allows.

 

Answer all questions: There is no penalty for incorrect answers, so complete all of them.

 

Use the format: Questions are displayed one by one. Use navigation buttons (next, previous) if available.

 

Stay calm: This is a practice simulation. Use any mistakes as learning opportunities.

 

Post-Exam

 

Review your answers: After finishing, check the detailed explanations provided for each question. These include:

• Justification of the correct answer.
• Specific references to the PMI-ACP® 2024 ECO (domain, task, enabler) or the PMI Agile Practice Guide.

 

Analyze your performance: Identify improvement areas (e.g., agile mindset, value-based prioritization) to focus your study.

 

Take notes: Record key concepts or topics to reinforce before the real exam, such as tools (MoSCoW, Kanban) or techniques (retrospectives, continuous integration).

 

Tips for Success

 

Simulate the real environment: Try to complete the exam in a single session, respecting the optional 10-minute break, to practice endurance.

 

Study the explanations: Even if you answer correctly, read the feedback to strengthen your knowledge of agile principles, tools, and techniques.

 

Repeat if necessary: If you do not reach 80%, review weak areas (e.g., agile metrics, psychological safety) and retake the simulation after studying.

 

Believe in yourself: This simulation is designed to reflect the difficulty and style of the PMI-ACP® exam, so good performance here is a strong indicator of your readiness.

 

Recommended Resources: Supplement your preparation with the PMI-ACP® Study Hall, authorized PMI® practice exams, and the PMI Agile Practice Guide.

 

Final Notes

 

Integrity: Answer without consulting external materials to assess your true knowledge.

 

Technical Support: If using an online platform and encountering issues, contact the site’s support team or exam administrator.

 

Study Materials: Although the simulation includes explanations, keep the PMI Agile Practice Guide or PMI-ACP® ECO handy to deepen your understanding after the exam.

 

You are one step closer to your PMI-ACP® certification!

 

Start the exam when ready and use this practice to strengthen your skills in agile mindset, leadership, product, and delivery.

 

Good luck with your preparation! 🚀
