Passed 1st try - Sept 12, 2012
All,
I passed the exam on my first try this morning. This site helped me to prepare so I wanted to give back and share my prep and lessons leared.
Study prep:
-Read Rita's 6th edition through to ch 12 (did not read social responsibility chapter).
-Did all questions in Rita's book after the chapters, scored 70-85% depending on the chapter
-Skipped certain areas of the PMBOK (max 2 hours were spent with PMBOK)
-Did a sample test with Rita's Fastrack (200 question test), scored 82%
-Did the first 100 questins of Lehman's 175, scored 76%
For my braindump I wrote down math formula's and pg 43 of PMBOK. It was not very helpful.
I did not memorize ITTO, but it would have made the exam much easier if I did.
I passed with 3P's 2MP's.

It took me about a month, I read a Rita chapter every 3 days or so, and then spent the last week with the sample questions.

Congrats sir
What is ITTO,
I tried reading PMBOK and Rita at the same time, I am unable to continue as it is pretty boring...
Could you please guide me with the sequence of study
Thanks
