PMP Exam study Tips

Hello Everyone,

 

I have 3 more weks to go for the exam. I have read PMBOK and Rita 7th ed 2x times and initially gone through PM prepcast by Cornelious. So far, I gave 3 mock tests ( olverlhman 75 question -62%, PMSTUDY free exam - 70% and RMC fastrack PMP 75%) so far. I am filling up my knowledge gaps before taking next exam to improve the score.I am planning to take PMstudy paid, PM Zilla, fastrack super PMP, examcentral 100 questions, Headfirst 200, Oliver lehman 175, Simpilearn free and Paid mock tests(total 8 more) before the exam.

Since I read Rita book and chapter exam more than 2 times, I see some of the questions repeated in fast track PMP which were in end chapter exams. Can you please suggest whether I should read Andy Crowe also(atleast for chapter exams in these 3 weeks) to understand the different view of the PMP exam. I am not sure whether I should read Rita and PMBOK one more time to fill any gaps which I think I can finish quickly but if it is important to read Andy Crowe also, I don't think I have enough time to complete all these.

Your suggestions much appreciated !!

 

Thanks and Regards

Vivek

Hi,


I dont think you have to read any other book, just take the practice tests you have lined up . I think you are doing well so far

Hi

Seems like you are crusing well and have a good handle on the time and prep plan. You may like to aim for 5P's.

Since you are fairing well in exam scores as well probably just continue with filling gaps, review questions you got wrong. Its iterative process till you feel confident. List down knowledge areas which you feel less confident about and you may like to quickly browse through those.  Read last chapter from Rita. 

You may want to go through some quiz, flashcards from brainbok, which will nothing but acts as an reinforcement. 

Lets us know how it goes.
