Not sure if your SIM Degree consider 'Four-year degree' to meet the Prerequisites for PMP.

However you can always use your 'Secondary degree' such as high school diploma like GCE O, associate’s degree like Polytechnics Diploma & ITE Certificates (Nitec & Higher Nitec) or the global equivalent like Private Diploma.

The only different is you needs to have 7,500 hours (Secondary degree) instead of 4,500 hours (Four-year degree) leading and directing projects to meet the Prerequisites for PMP.

No, the experience sheet is selectively audited. Your experience sheet might not even get audited.

Just apply with any school; go there socialise, you wont get much out of the 35 hours, just there to know the basic structure and clock the prerequisite 35 hours. The rest depends on your own level of understanding and self study.

For me, i just wack the rita superpmp simulation until I get above 80% score, 80% of the attempts. I did not even study the PmBoK or Headsfirst PMP book.

Looking to take the PMP course. What are some recommended centres today? Why isthere such huge cost disparity between some of the providers? I just had a look at NTUC vs. NUS ISS and the cost difference is almost $1K+.

Wanna ask if 1 can do self study using PMP books and the rita exam simulation without signing up on the courses to prepare for the exams. Is this feasible?
