Practice Tests for Backward and Forward Pass, EVM
Dear all,
If i may share some LL's from my 1st attempt :
I missed some of the followings, which is my LL and thus wanted to share it with all of you.
Before the exam:
#1: Never underestimate the 4hr exam,need to build the endurance with practice tests as much as possible.
#2: Dont just read ITTO's, try and practice ITTO's as Rita suggests visualizing how it happens in real world.
#3: Give ample time to read Rita's Sixth edition (1st time - read it thoroughly)
#4: Take an assessment (200 questions) - which will help u identify the gaps.
#5: Study the gaps and go after the answers, read it well.
#6: Revise Rita's 6th edition - 2nd and 3rd time - skimmed through the chapters.
#7: Follow-up with practice tests as much as possible (1000+ questions atleast)
#8: Refer to glossary (MUST) a day before the exam.
#9: To be safe - you MUST score "80-85" in practice tests - I tried PMStudy, but my scores were approx 70-75%, Oliver - 60% (75 questions), didnt take much practice tests - which was the primary reason i got exhausted during the exam!!
During the exam:
DO's:
* Relax yourself a day before the exam.
* Plan to start early during the day of the exam - avoid last minute rush.
* During the exam - make a note of the second best answer for the q's you mark for review later
* In 1st 15mins - put down the formulates (key formulaes).
DON'T:
* DON'T assume you'll be able to answer all the questions from the set "go".
* DON'T be suprised if u see MOST difficult one coming up 1st.
* DON'T give up if you've not had a good start, you always can finish up with well.
All the best!
Kris

Kris,Thanks for great
Kris,
Thanks for great suggestions, some of them were unique like noting down second best answer. I find you brave and "BIG" hearted. Good Luck in your second attempt.
One quick question: Do you think glossary can be read once everyday ? Also how do you find quality of PMStudy questions ?

Re:
You may not need to read it daily as its fairly straightforward, even if u start a week prior to the exam - it should suffice, unlike the formulaes and process chart which may require frequent revisions.
In personal opinion - PMstudy free tests and Test Set 2 was okay, i wud rate it 6/10, not sure of other question sets - language was very simple, had good maths q's and ITTO, I will most likely go for pmzilla test, liked the sample one.
Good luck!
