Exam in 10 days
Hello Experts,
I am going to write my exam in 10 days time. Here is my preparation and Mock scores, Can you tell me if I am good to go or areas that I should focus on in the next 10 days?
Books:
Rita 7th Edition, PMBOK, Kim Heldman, Head First, Revision with Chris Scordo 24 hr book on pmi
Dont plan to memorize ITTOS, understanding the flow of processes, Just Pg 43 and all formulas memorized
Mock Tests
1) Rita FastTrack - KA tests average 75%
2) Rita Fastrack - Full 200 - 68%
3) Examcentral - 76%
4) Pmstudy 1 - 68%
5) Chris Scordo 14-17 - Avg 73%
8) Oliver 175 - 66%
Also, I would like to bump my scores a little bit, can you give me some tips and tricks please?
Thank you in advance

During the last week of prep
During the last week of prep i found downloading my copy of pmbok on my phone and reviewing ITTOs whenever i got a chance to be helpful. there were a lot of ques on Ittos on the exam even like org process assets is an input of type questions. if u review ittos multiple times it will save u time on ur exam.

Good to go
My last week, I looked at my tests and attempted to concentrate on my weaker areas. I read the PMBOK to go over these areas. I also read material from this site.

ITTO
Here's my lessons learned:
http://pmzilla.com/exam-21st-dec
See item 6. The notes in this forum are the best ones that I came across so far. Memorize/understand as much as you can and understand the flow between the processes. Use Brainbok, they have great quizes.
Good luck,
Amy

I think you are all set. I
I think you are all set. I found the actual exam to be easier than some of the mock tests ( i took only few of the free mock tests). The only difficult thing with the exam was that I found some of the questions to be wordy and sometimes you had to read all the lines to get all the relevant information. I had a lot of questions on fast tracking vs crashing, QA vs QC, what comes next type ques (Rita's tip on the Project integration chapter about analyzing the imapct first helped me answer these ques), Again if you have time the day before the exam just try to recreate ITTOS ( i had a few direct ques like "what is one of the input of acquire resource mgt"?, "Org process assests in an input of"? type ques).
Wishing you all the very best. Waiting to see your LL post.
