PMP update

Over the past two months, I've been doing the practice tests for my PMP certification. At first, I was getting -- maybe -- 50% on 50 question sets, but I've been building up to the point where I can sometimes get higher than 90% on the full 200 questions.

What really helped was the 10-day military exercise that had me on 12-hour night shifts. I had little else to do but study.

(Which says a lot about both me and my job, I know.)

So I've submitted my three Certification Mode screenshots to the O2O administrators, and now my next step is to get permission from the Project Management Institute to take the test.

To do that, I have to list how and when I got my 4,500 hours of project experience. So over the next however-long-it-is, I'll be combing through my old evaluations for clues about how many hours I spent moving my battalion's headquarters, planning military exercises, and executing the plans I created.
