General suggestion
There could be no greater time than now. On the off chance that you need to get PMP guaranteed, at that point begin concentrating immediately and plan on taking your test before June 30th 2013. You need to move your test at any rate one month before the genuine test change, on the grounds that the most recent a month prior to the changeover will see a "distraught surge". PMP up-and-comers everywhere on the world will scramble to "crush" their test dates into July, so situates at the testing places will be difficult to get.
You are taking the PMP test before July 31st 2013
On the off chance that you are taking your PMP test before the changeover, at that point you are taking the "current" PMP Exam Rajasthan PTET 2021.

You have recently done an incredible help to PMI and any remaining PMP test takers coming after you. Much obliged to you.
