Passed the PMP exam on 12th of september
Hello World,
Just Passed PMP exam today in first attempt. I started to prepare from Aug 15 rd. with the Rita book in order to understand the core of the PMBOK. Then I concentrated my study on PMBOK and made some link between the process areas.
End of august, I started online questions with pmstudy (1,2,3,4) and also focused on testing chapter which helped me even more than the real exam simulation. I also tested http://www.oliverlehmann.com which after all is over skilled for the exam and doesn't match with the real one.
I decided also to reprint the PMBOK PDF by initiation, planning, execute, M&C, closing. This is maybe the best action I took for this prep.
In addition i made some math exercises from “PMP certifications mathematics” from Vidya Subramanian. This is book is more helpful than Rita for the math part, especially for EVM, critical path, PTA,…. It goes deeper in the matter.
Last day I read the Rajesh Nair's note version ABHISHEK'S ‘:see in PMZILLA documents.
Thank you to the PMzilla community for the LL and material.

Congratulations on your pmp
Congratulations on your pmp certification.
I would like to add that for those who need extra help with Maths, I have heard from few people that “PMP certifications mathematics” by Vidya Subramanian is really a good book. But I would only recommend to those who are afraid of Maths, normally the Math questions in other materials is sufficient. and mock tests will cover for gaps.
