I'm Mohanraj Krishnan, working as Technology Project manager @ ABB Hitachi Power Grids, undergone PMP training organized by ITECHGURU and I have cleared the PMP exam today (first attempt), thanks to the ITECHGURUS study materials which helped me to concentrate on key points and the trainer was excellent, he clearly taught the complete course in a simple and easier way, especially ITTO flowchart.
Hi Prashanth Sir, Good Afternoon!!
PMP Journey: PMP certification is my long awaited goal and while searching for the best institutes I came across ITECHGURUS having very good reviews. To enquire more about the course curriculum, I have dropped my details and Prashanth Sir has mailed me with the complete end to end details like Course Structure, eligibility and program plan and finally decided to proceed with the training.
1. Joined the Training Program in the month of October’2020 and it went very well. Manick Sir was awesome and very patient in answering the queries we have during the entire course.
2. After completing the 4 Weeks course, Started looking at the concepts again and due to the work load at office the progress on the study part was very minimal.
3. Finally decided to have a clear Study Plan and rejoined the class again and spend around daily 3 hours for study during week days and good amount of time during weekends.
4. I have prepared my plan based on Knowledge Areas which I feel comfortable rather than ITTO’s wise.
5. On a higher note, I have referred PMBOK 6th Edition as well RITA. My primary reference guide was completely on the recordings of ITECHGURUS which helped me a lot in understanding the concepts and Calculation part. I have gone through the recordings 4 times to understand the concepts behind each KA’s.
6. Set a Target date for the exam first and then start reading according to the timelines will help you to achieve your goals.
7. Personally I feel without setting the Exam Date, You will not have a clear deadline to complete the goal and it might get delayed further.
8. Track your learning regularly and try to ensure the target dates for each KA’s are met as per your schedule.
9. Understanding the concepts play a key role rather remembering them

Cleared My PMP! I initially joined another institute recommended my collogues and dropped out. Then I came across ITechgurus in a Youtube video and attended one session and felt this is where I should continue. Glad I made that decision. The trainer was very good and cleared all the concepts and provided all the required support. Thank you Mr. Prasanth, Chandramouli & Manick.
My PMP training started with itech gurus training
1.Didnt refer PMBOK
2.Read Rita 2times indepth and solved all Q and A..Very practical Syllabus
3.Maniks Videos covers almost all the syllabus..few gaps covered in Rita. watched video's.. atleast..4 to 5 times
4.Itech gurus mock1 and mock4.. scored 66 and 73
5.. PMP mock first' attempt 65 and second attempt 77
6..I also gave headfirst mock, Rita 120 and 128..with average of 70
7..I gave exam at Mumbai center..they allowed me to seat earlier then my appointment timings
8.. Questions were trickier then PMP mock but length of questions are similar
9.. Keep a track of time it starts with 240min...u need to solve atleast 30questions per 30mins
10..I had last only 7mins for review
11..Used only mark for review tag...but not very useful for me as limited time was there for review12..After 200question..I was not able to read the congratulations message and got second confirmation from the exam coordinator..
Once again I want to mention Manik his teaching skills are excellent and the different examples helped me to understand the concepts faster..
Successfully Cleared PMP Exam! Thank you very much Prasanth for your guidance.
The training session from Mr. Manick was wonderful, it helped in grasping the end to end flow, important concepts and ITTO's. The examples quoted were really helpful in visualizing the concepts & he was patient enough to address each and every query raised.
From the preparation point of view, i started with head first which helped to stimulate the reading process as I am not a avid reader, then started Rita which helped in understanding the flow and itto a bit more deeper. Then read the pmbok 2 times and highlighted the important concepts, words, etc. Took almost 5+ mocks available online and offline. Before 2-3 days of exam, revised highlighted points in pmbok alone for 2 times. Used the process chart provided by Mr. Manick sir in the last day to revise. Practice writing down all the formulas for couple of days so that you could brain dump it in the sheet provided in the testing center. Do some breathing exercises before the exam to calm you down and keep you out of Anxiety.
For the exam, take the PMI mock a week before the actual exam, identify the lagging areas and readthrough them again. Take the mock again 2 days prior to the exam to see the improvement. During exam, do not rush into answering the questions, read out the questions carefully, understand which process and KA its falling under, then it will be a cake walk for you to answer them.
All the best folks.

My PMP preparation started with ITech Gurus PMP training sessions.
After the classes, I revised the entire Daywise slide material provided by ITech Gurus. This is v useful as the slides have the entire syllabus in a precise way.
I completed all the required mock exams by ITech Gurus.
Completed the PMI mock exam. Read RMC exam prep and completed all the chapter tests.
Now I have cleared my PMP.
Thanks Manick and Prashant sir for the support and guidance. The PMP training sessions by Manick sir and ITech Gurus training and learning materials are the best inputs for any PMP aspirant. Thanks once again
Hello Prasanth
I Would like to take this opportunity to say Thank You to you, itechgurus team and Manick sir for the guidance and support provided throughout the training, preparation, enrollment and the final exam for PMP. Had it not been for Manick sir's classes, the concepts would not have ingrained in my brain. The best part is you made me feel that my success is what you are genuinely concerned with. All my concerns were very patiently addressed.
In addition to the certification, in my day to day professional life, i have started to use the PMP terms and concepts which helps me position myself as a better project manager
Please accept my heartfelt gratitude
Thankyou!

Thank you @ITechGurus for excellent training facility, study materials and support
Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Value
I passed my PMP exam with 'Above Target' in all 5 domains.
This is Achieved after conducting the Training conducted by Itechgurus.
I am very thankful to Trainer Dr. Chandramouli S who has major contribution to understand PMBOK concept in easy way.
I am more impressed by step by step technique explained by him during training.
His teaching approach is totally different than normal teaching method, he will help to set your mindset to get prepare for exam confidently.
What help me, how I studied and what I followed
1. Only Study material provided by Itechguru (include PMBOK, Headfirst, Rita book, Itechguru Practice Q&A)
2. Every day 3 to 4 Hours continuous study, without break
3. I followed one chapter at time (Read till you get depth of topic, Go slow)
4. Analyze mock test result more than 8 hr of all 200 question which came right and wrong.
What I have stopped doing while preparing
1. No YouTube Video
2. No Q&A source from internet
I preferred to read study material in PDF format on laptop or PC than hard copy and PMP Exam Simulation which content exam standard questions and give experience of conducting 4 hour actual exam.
I Stopped study 24 hour before exam day, watched my favorite movie , good quality sleep for 8 hr. It will help you to seat for 4 hour during exam day with concentration.
*Passing PMP exam within a month study time increase chance to pass in First attempt, don’t extend your stud beyond it due to some reason.
