Okay, that’s a bit of a click bait. It’s only realistically possible if you have already been doing Agile and Scrum and acting as Product Owner for a reasonable time. The good news is that if you’re taking this certification, you probably already have.

With that out of the way here’s what I did to prepare for (and pass) the certification exam. Depending on how much time you have available, this should take a total of about a week or two:

1. If it’s been a while, it will be beneficial to first go through and review Scrum.org’s Scrum Master Learning Path. You don’t need to have a PSM certification but you need to have the required knowledge. And of course, a good way to validate that knowledge is getting the certification.
2. Go through and review Scrum.org’s Product Owner Learning Path resources. For PSPO I, you need to focus on the Understanding and Applying Scrum, Developing People and Teams, and Managing Products With Agility  sections.
3. Take Scrum.org’s Product Owner Open assessment. I did this at the end of every day. Take note that the Product Owner Open is a smaller subset of the topics and questions. It does not completely represent the certification exam. However, it is an adequate simulation of the exam experience. Once I consistently got 100% in the Product Owner Open, I decided I was ready.

The next step is purchasing the assessment voucher and then taking the exam.

As a final note, I found the exam tougher than the PSM I exam and I barely had enough time to review my answers. But with proper preparation, you should be able to do it. Good luck!
