29| How to learn effectively to pass the PMP exam

 According to neuroscience research on how our brains work, we tend to learn better and retain more of what we learned if we space out our learning over a period of time rather than trying to do mass learning right before the exam day. When we do a mass learning right before the exam we may be able to retrieve the information during the exam but the learning will fade away quicker. In contrast, if we do a balanced learning over a longer time we will have a better chance of remembering our learning. Therefore, when you are preparing for the PMP exam, please consider designing your learning plan on a balanced approach and let the brain cells soak in the information. After all, I hope the goal is also to remember the concepts after you pass the PMP exam.

Example of a more balanced approach:

30 - 120 minutes x Every day for several weeks  Vs.  480 minutes x last 2 days before the PMP exam                   

  

Patience and hard work often beat Talent.
