What do you suggest SS?

Hi SS (Saket Sir),


 


Due to my excessive leaning on ITTOs via Brainbok, I consistently score 90%+, reading PMBOK has become little easy. I am relying (till June-end) on TMH's Maths for PMP and then would read PMBOK, Rita and Head 1st in conjunction. I got to know on TMH through few successful candidates on Zilla.


 


My question to SS is what do you suggest, which one should I read first amongst these three books as mentioned above?


 


I want to be thorough through ITTOs and Maths since they might not consider a huge amount of questions but are easy to score. And not to forget what you humbly and aptly said few days back 80% of PMP questions thrive on ITTOs in one way or the other.


 


Thanks in anticipation on your to-the-point suggestions, as always.


 


Kindest regards, KK..............

Hey Kranti,


Your confidence level would dominate even PMBOK knowledge if you continue to maintain the same. Having self faith for 90% is more than enough. Please give PMP exam ASAP. The bad side of beautiful sunrise is that, it does not remain for long. Think about a way to keep these 90% confidence you have gained, don’t try to learn more. As a human it’s more than enough as long as your target is passing PMP exam.


For you, I would not advice anything beyond PMBOK. The research and information PMBOK has, no one would even dare to give even 80% in their publications. Keep reading PMBOK daily and enjoy it like the game you play. If you take your study and goal like sports game, you will play to enjoy it and not to pass. PMBOK is a vast ocean, and if you dig carefully, you will even get gold, diamonds and pearls in it, no other books even knows this hidden treasure.


Yes, in reality around 80% of PMP questions are directly/indirectly from IITO.


For you, that’s all I suggest, keep the confidence you have build up and keep playing and enjoying your game (PMP Exam Preparations). Good Luck!


Regards,
Saket, PMP

KK , if you perfect PMP maths it will help you in your real work also. very Few PMs actually apply it to their projects.

Thats right admin Sir.


 


Its all the more important for me because I work for a Construction company as a SPM and in my company I have realised that running the project managing C and T is very important, the same way as handling the triple constraints.


 


However, running the project mathematical way takes care of C and T anyway which people realise only in the end. Wish they had realised from the beginning!


 


Thanks so much SS and admin Sir.


 


Thanks, KK.....
