Question regarding PMBOK 5th Edition

Submitted by subirrastogi on Mon, 03/04/2013 - 10:57

Hi,

I am beginer and just started reading PMBOK 5th edition.

My question is if I am planning to take the PMP exam in July 2013, should I read PMBOK 5th edition or PMBOK 4th edition?

Does it really matter?

It's a vey basic question but I just wanted to be sure.

Thanks in advance.

 Hi Subir,

If you are planning to give the exam before 31st July 2013, do read from PMBOK 4 and related books like Headfirst and Rita. 

If you compare PMBOK 5 with PMBOK 4, there are lot of changes and if you are planning to give the exam, give it before July 31st, rather I think it will be complete waste of time.

Regards,

Vaibhav

Hi Vaibhav,

thanks for the information.

I will refer PMBOK 4 only.
