Ready or Not for the test?

Submitted by bonnettja@msn.com on Sun, 12/09/2012 - 20:00

I am less than a week away from my test..here's where I stand with the tests:

Examcentral-used this for each chapter-scored between 70s-90s. 

Brainbok ITTO quizes- 80-90s

Lehman 175 mid 70s

Headfirst:  80s

PM Study- exam 1 76%, exam 2:72

Transcenders exams 1-3 all in the high 70s.

PMZilla free test 70s

I plan on reviewing the concepts this week and finishing 3 tests (rest of PM study, and the last one from transcender).  I took two days prior to the test off to study. 

If you have any other suggestions of what I can do to better prepare, please let me know.

Thanks,

Amy

Have you got confirmation, from prometric centre it comes at the same time, and it is enough to enter. And you will be called sure.

In last days read PMBOK -formula, p 43, notes, glossary, ittos, some thing you want to memorise. practice to write tutorial time - brain dump.

Best of Luck Amy..

Hi Amy


Apart from what Mr. SS pawar has already summarized just ensure you dont give any new tests in last 3 days , it just increases the anxiety level.


The last 1 week is meant for consolidating the week areas


Closure is a small process area but a problematic and confusing area for most so refer to Kim Heldman full fledged chapter on closure process group given on PMI site


Last 3-4 days skim through PMBOK especially  the Data Flow diagram of IITO's of core processes , hope you have your own handmade notes or you can take Rajesh nair latest notes from this site also ..study them thoroughly


Read PMBOK Glossary and definitions on last 2 days and have a full night sleep ..just 1 day before the exam stop studying after 8 Pm ..your mind needs time to register that information


Best of luck and do post your results :)


Regards


Puneet

I have been using Rajesh's notes.  I have memorized the Rita chart for closing and initiating when I realized the small # of questions could make me not pass.  This boosted my confidence in those areas.  I also memorized as much as possible about procurements.  I will go read the Kim Heldman's chapter too.  

Thanks for your advice..I appreciate it!
