Tips and advice on current exam prep plan

Submitted by zxbane on Wed, 04/01/2015 - 14:23

Hey all,

 

I am glad I found this website, tons of wonderful information. I am currently preparing for the PMP exam and I am hoping to test around mid May. I have been reading Rita and I am currently in the final couple chapters (procurement etc) I have also been working my way through the PMPrepCast. I plan to use the PMBOK as a reference for topics I am struggling on as exam time gets closer.

 

After reading Rita I was going to circle back and do a quick read through Head First and then re-read Rita leading up to the exam. I am also attending a PMP Bootcamp from trainingcamp.com on May 11-15th and hoping to test shortly after that.

 

I have purchased all 4 exams from pmstudy.com, although I haven't taken any of the practice exams yet I have been doing the Chapter Questions for each chapter after I finish reading the chapter from Rita. I also took the free 75q from Lehmann and scored 69.3% which made me feel pretty good since I am only now getting through my first pass of Rita.

 

If anyone could recommend any other study material, quality free tests or anything of that nature it would be greatly appreciated! I am hoping my study plan is good enough and I can be successful on the exam after the bootcamp in May.

All the best for you exams.

I have started my studies now and completed first 3 chapters. I am planning for May end exams.

I follow pmprepcast, pm exam simulator, pmbok5, pmp training kit(book) by sean whitaker. I will use RITA and headfirst only for chapter end pratice questions.
