I’m often asked how best to approach revising for the PMQ exam by people who are thinking of taking it and, somewhat expectedly, from people who are sitting the course with the exam booked and in the forefront of their minds. I  had a think about what kinds of advice I give to people and decided to try and consolidate it in a single podcast so that you can have a listen and see what elements may or may not work for you when preparing for, or thinking about doing, the PMQ.

The new PMQ exam format, which is a two and a half hour exam with multiple choice, written, and select box questions.
