Hi There,

I am preparing myself for PSM I and I am new in Scrum.

I am following these things to prepare myself.

1. Reading Scrum Guide multiple times

2. Scrum open assessments

3. mplashim Quiz learning and Real mode

Hi, Monika!

I guess it is ok for you to read Nexus (recommend you to make this 2 times at least). As I know there may be about 2-3 questions from PSM 1. 

Also highly recommend you to use scrumcrazy and volkerdon to prepare for PSM. In my case they were very and very helpful.

I was able to pass before I worked through the Nexus guide. Not many questions did relate to Scaling.

You often also see the Scrum Pocket Guide mentioned as an good way to approach the subject.

I agree that http://www.scrumcrazy.com/PSM1 could be beneficial with for example tips like:

Read about Burndown Charts here and here.

Read the Scrum Glossary, and refer back to it when necessary.

Pay special attention to the language in the Scrum Guide regarding the "Sprint Goal" and the "5 Scrum Values".

Being here in the Forum is also good ... just Scrum on.
