Passed AT/T/AT in first attempt and a tip no one tells you!!
First of all, a big thank you to this amazing Reddit community! I’ve been lurking here for over a year, and the amount of information and support I’ve received from this space is absolute gold. Truly, this wouldn’t have been possible without all the helpful tips and shared experiences here.
There are plenty of posts about which resources to use, but if I had to recommend just one invest in PMI Study Hall. It is hands down the most effective preparation platform out there. I’ve tried mocks from multiple sources, and I can confidently say that nothing comes close to Study Hall. The question formats, verbiage, and complexity are incredibly aligned with the actual exam. In fact, I encountered about 5–6 questions on my exam that were strikingly similar to ones I’d seen on Study Hall, definitely not identical, but close enough to make me feel like, “Yep, I’ve seen this before.”
Before the exam, I was nervous about multi-select and hotspot questions. Thankfully, my set didn’t include any hotspots or drag-and-drops, and I only got 5–6 multi-selects spread across the three sections. They ranged from moderate to difficult, but none were as brutal as the ones in Study Hall which, in hindsight, was great for over-preparing.
As for online resources, Andrew Ramdayal’s 200 Ultra-Hard Questions deserve a special mention. They’re excellent for learning how to apply the PMI mindset and think the way the exam expects you to. Out of all the video content I went through, AR’s question set stood out the most in helping me become truly exam-ready.
One strong recommendation from my side: take as many full-length mocks as possible. Not just for practice, but to build endurance and time management.
Believe me, sitting through a 4-hour exam is no joke. It is just brutal. You need to train your mind and body for that kind of sustained focus. Practice helps you get a feel for pacing, when to take mini mental breaks, and how to stay composed across all three sections. Don't underestimate the physical and mental fatigue. Mock exams help simulate the pressure and build the stamina you’ll need on the actual day.
If at all matters after all this below are my scores on Study Hall
