    Hello Sir,

    I am a student who was granted the exemption for the first six papers in the fundamental papers from my university since they were integrated with our UG syllabus. Is it possible for me to sit for APM exam without PM knowledge which is one of the exempted paper?

    The assumption is that if you have been exempted from studying and sitting the PM exam then you acquired PM knowledge elsewhere – to justify the exemption.

    If you really have no PM knowledge of any kind, then APM will be very difficult.

    I suggest you start studying APM and if you find that for a topic of question you lack PM knowledge then you can always look at the appropriate notes and lectures in our PM material.

    Thank you for your reply sir. I am currently at skill level now. So I’ve already studied PM in my UG programe.

    I also studied some syllabus of the APM in my final year. We’ve been advised to give AFM and AAA as our optionals in professional exam. I am not willing to write AAA. So I’ve decided to sit for this paper instead of AAA.

    Since I studied both PM and Advanced PM in my UG programe, can I sit for this exam sir?

    Yes, indeed. But you must practise lots of questions.
