## Before you begin

Set aside uninterrupted time. The answering timer continues if you navigate away or close the page; leaving isn’t a pause. Scheduled breaks are handled separately.

Within the current section, you can flag questions and change answers before submitting. Submitting a section locks it, so you can’t return to those questions later. Explanations appear in your results, after the exam.

## Understand the practice

These are Tirtle’s original practice questions, not official PMI exam items. You may choose one answer, choose several, or match items. Some questions share a project situation. Tirtle does not copy every official exam format. You can choose to include questions you have seen before.

Scores describe this attempt. They aren’t an official pass mark or a promise about your exam result. Short timed practice is free. Start it from Today.
