How I cleared PSM1 Exam

When you start preparing for any scrum master exam the first question comes to your mind is which one to choose. PSM or CSM. 

for me the deciding factor was the life span of certificate

  1. PSM has a lifetime validity
  2. CSM needs to renew every two year. 

So I decided to go with PSM and prepared in the below fashion. 

1) Downloaded the scrum guide from "Scrum.org" - it is a 14 page PDF file and very hard to understand on first read. 
Link to Download : scrumguides.org

2) Went through the entire document to grasp the structure of the guide. 

3) Bought a course from Udemy from a teacher called "Valentin". Link is here: https://www.udemy.com/course/agile-scrum-for-beginners-scrum-master-certification-preparation/

4) The course is amazing made the scrum guide look like a story

5) Give the second attempt of reading to the Scrum guide followed by the revision of video's. 

6) After that attempted sample questions from two places. 

a) Scrum.org : https://www.scrum.org/open-assessments/scrum-open

b) Mikhail : mlapshin.com/index.php/scrum-quizzes/sm-learning-mode/ 

7 ) Continued my revision of the scrum guide and udemy course until I was able to score 95%. This is very important as the passing %age of scrum is 85%. 

8) Bought the exam and gave it in the morning and I was able to score 97% in it. 

9) Fairly simple and requires 2-3 weeks of studies (2 hours everyday) to pass the exam.
