Hurray - I’ve passed the exam for Certified Implementation Specialist – Application Portfolio Management (for Rome release).

Let me give you a handful of pointers on my experience with the same.

 

Exam basics

  • Exam Structure - The exam consists of 30 questions 

  • Time limit - 100 minutes

Exam Scope

  • 20% Introduction

  • 13% Application under Management

  • 13% Basic Rationalization

  • 17% Advanced Rationalization

  • 37% Fundamentals

Key resources

  • Take a good read of the CIS APM exam spec (link) for more information
  • I referred below now learning courses:
    • Application Portfolio Management (APM) Fundamentals - 45 minutes
    • Application Portfolio Management (APM) Implementation - 1 hour 45 minutes
  • I used the flash card for practice
  • Last but not the least -"ServiceNow Docs"

What surprised me

Nothing much!!

I completed the exam in ~ 30 minutes and found time too much .

However there were around 5-6 questions on which I had some doubts ,rest I already have idea by going through above study material

 

What to focus on

  • Questions will be straight forward hence do go through ServiceNow docs at least once and practice some questions from flash card as it will cover most part of the exam

 

Good luck!
