General ACCAFailed PMI Professional in Business Analysis Exam First Attempt and Here Is What

Went into the PMI Professional in Business Analysis Exam, thinking project management experience would be enough. It was not. The exam tests business analysis thinking specifically, not general PM instincts. Stakeholder engagement scenarios and requirements traceability decisions came up in ways that daily project work never prepares you for. That was the gap. Not knowledge, but how to think like a business analyst in complex situations. Second attempt cleared six weeks later after focusing entirely on scenario-based BA problems and reviewing every wrong answer the same day.
