What users say

Reddit users find PMTraining's live class and mock exams solid and exam-accurate, though many debate whether PMI Study Hall is still needed alongside it.

A few weeks ago I took a 5 day, live online instructor led course from PMTraining to satisfy the 35 hour training requirement. The course included 17 mock exams with 50 questions each.
Reddit, r/pmp
To answer your questions, question length was fairly accurate, difficulty and choice vagueness were fairly accurate if not a tad bit easier than than exam.
Reddit, r/pmp
It seems like SH is the standard, but wondering if it's redundant or worth it as a supplement to included materials.
