1) Read the PMBOK 6 thoroughly and prepare short notes for each Chapter. I am mentioning PMBOK 6 as I have studied it.
2) Read the Rita Mulcahy Book and Solve the Questions and Answers at the end of this chapter.
Don't judge yourself by how many questions you have answered correctly. Understand the logic behind

Remember for passing PMP Examination you have to think as per PMI standards.
3) Read the Agile Practice Guide thoroughly and prepare short notes for each Chapter

6) Solve the problems and understand the logic behind the answers.
7) Start solving the questions papers. Question paper will have situational question. In first attempt it will be better to take 30 Questions and solve
it considering the time. Don't worry if the answers are wrong and don't get carried away if the answers are correct.
Understand the logic and note it in a piece of paper. These papers should be kept properly as before Examination it should be referred.
Next solve 60 Questions in a go. Follow this process and solve 120 and 180 Questions.
