I built a personalized PSM I practice tool because mock exams felt broken

#learning #resources #showdev #sideprojects

I built Pretty Scrum because preparing for the PSM I exam felt more inefficient than it needed to be.

Most mock exams I tried had the same problem: they kept repeating questions I already knew, while not focusing enough on the areas where I was still weak.

Udemy mock exams and open Scrum tests are useful, but they usually do not adapt to your skill level. After a while, you start recognizing answers instead of improving your actual understanding.

So I built Pretty Scrum.

It is a free, personalized practice tool for PSM I preparation.

What it does

  • Gives you PSM I-style practice questions
  • Adjusts practice based on your progress
  • Focuses more on weak areas
  • Gives instant feedback
  • Avoids unnecessary repetition
  • Works without friction

Why I built it

I wanted a study flow that felt more like deliberate practice.

Not:

Take a full mock exam. See a score. Repeat.

But:

Practice. Understand mistakes. Focus weak areas. Improve faster.

What I am working on next

  • Better explanations
  • More question variety
  • More personalized study paths
  • Exam simulation mode
  • Progress insights

Try it

You can try Pretty Scrum here:

I would love feedback on:

  1. Does the positioning make sense?
  2. Would adaptive practice help you prepare for an exam?
  3. What would you expect from a good PSM I prep tool?
