Wanted to share my experience studying and taking this exam. I was very overwhelmed with all the study options/materials out there as well as study plans guides. (not mentioning the cost associated with them)

I made up a 5 week study plan; Narmour Wright reading guide has broken up sections and I did one week per section plus 1 week to review.

My primary study material was the AHPP book, highly recommend it, as far as to what I read you can it the sections in the link below (Narmour Wright) reading guide.

Two weekends before the exam I took the brightwood practice exam and during the last week/weekend up to the exam I read brightwood chapters where I did poorly in their practice exams. They are a low shorter and condensed compared to AHPP.

Definitely understand the roles and responsibilities in A101, A201, B101. Risk, project deliveries, and financials were big on my exam. Financial practice problems are hard to find, but hyperfine (youtube link below) does have a couple short videos on how to calculate these numbers under they PCM playlist.

I also found study notes on this board from user 'Tanya A', unfortunately I can't find her post now but I will update when I can track it down. If anyone has it handy, add it in the comments. I read and looked over her study notes over during the week/days where I had light reading.

I spent about 1-2 hours reading during the week and 2-3 on saturday/sunday. I did take Friday off to have a day to take a break from work/studying.
