Hello Everyone,
I have cleared my PMP exam on 20th March 2018 with score –
Above Target ( in Planning , Executing , Closing processes ) and Target ( in Initiating and Monitoring & Control processes) .
Few tips to share , based on my experience –
• Prepare your own Study plan based on your (day or week) routine .
• Regular and focused study is must .
• Read and focus on Exam objectives/outline from PMI website .
• Read PMBOK at least 2-3 times .
• Read any one reference PMP Study guide ( from author like Kim Heldman , Rita Mulcahy , Head First or any other you like ) .
I personally like Kim Heldman’s book , as it was to the point and professionally illustrated concepts with case study + processes wise Questions + Audio clips .
• Take IMP notes when you read study material or solve questions - This will be handy reminder/reference notes during your last review & before exam day .
• Regularly revise this note & as per plan you have prepared.
• Solve maximum questions and real time mock exam tests –
I personally used PM-Prepcast Exam simulator and it provided strong question banks to prepare and to get ready for passing PMP exam .
It provides flexibility to learn on our own space ( learning and time mode questions ) , As per area of improvement / focus ( i.e. as per domain or knowledge area wise )
and 9 full length tests with detailed answer explanation ( which is more than enough ) – to gauge your readiness for PMP exam .
Great work done by PrepCast Team and Cornelius Fichtner !!!
Thank you so much for this great tool , exam LL forum , sharing tips and tricks over mails etc - it was worth decision to purchase PM-Prepcast Exam Simulator quality tool .
I will defiantly refer to PrepCast products to others and myself for other product Certifications .
• Total preparation durations 4-5 months .
Final Exam –
• Take enough rest day before exam . Do not over read or exert yourself .
• Confidently appear for exam .
• Exam question were short , but complex & situational base .
• No direct ITTO based questions , but embedded in situational conditions ( you can easily pick right answer , if you understand ITTO concept and its real use ) .
• 3-4 mathematical calculations ( from Time , Cost , Communications ) .
• Understanding PMBOK concept and answering them on same way in exam or on situational questions is very important .
Good luck & All the best for all PMP aspirant !
