Hello Deep,

I sat for the CMRP twice. I've been operating, managing and training operations and maintenance crews at power plants, carbon and renewables, for over two decades. Do not approach the CMRP as a test of retained information. Memory will not get you through it. The exam tests your application of knowledge and experience.

Review the SMRP Body of Knowledge and the various metrics on the site. Your goal must be to understand the reasoning behind all that instead of trying to memorize it. 

There is one memory task you should take on, the acronyms. Acronyms took me out on my first attempt. The AnkiApp has a flash card set for CMRP.  Warning, there are flash cards for Certified Medical Reliability Professional so download the correct set. 

When you achieve CMRP, remember the certificate hanging on your wall has no value unless you apply the knowledge and continuously improve on it.
