Hi Louiesa,

Congratulations on your CAPM certification. For the PMP exam, I read the PMBOK guide cover-to-cover and then followed it up with Rita Mulcahy's PMP Prep Book as well as the mock tests that are available for purchase with the book. Her book will help you understand the type of questions that may come up on the exam.
Good Luck!
If you need any more help...feel free to reach out! :)

Thanks!

Regards,
Bhagyashree

Well I would leave that upto you! :)
Generally Rita's book and her mock tests will prepare you pretty well for the exam - but it never hurts to look around for new options right? :D
I will let you know if I find something new on the PMP prep! :)
Good luck!

Hi Ma'am,

Rita Mulcahy is definitely good than other authors...but the situational Questions are not wordy...In Real PMP Exam Mostly Wordy questions will be triggering.

Congrats Louiesa, great achievement. Like others did recommend, I would go for PMBOK 6th Edition and Rita Mulcahy Exam Prep + The Fast Track for simulation exams.

I am just curious about something: If you are planning to take the PMP immediately after CAPM, why did you do the CAPM ? It is more or less the same exam study material and you do not CAPM to do PMP. Normally, individuals who pursue their CAPM, do not have the required years of experience but in your case, I assume you do.
