If you took the PMChallenge did you find it aligned with PMBOK 6th edition and was the challenge useful in preparing for the PMP exam?

The questions in a real exam are a little bit larger, but the concept is the same. It can help.

As a mentor I have been recommending that students preparing for the exam combine formal study of the PMBOK (practice exams after each chapter) along with multiple full 200 question practice exams and use the PMChallenge as a way to reinforce the basics they have learned reading the PMBOK. I also recommend Rita's Mulcahy's book, 9th edition to help understand questions missed during practice exams.

please do NOT use the PM Challenge Questions as a prep tool for PMP Certification.
A lot of questions are conducted in a tie, when pm.com has not been belonged to PMI. That questions are not wrong (with some exceptions), but they are not designed to support PMP/CAPM exam peparation.
Also some questions are outdated meanwhile (basing on PMBoK Guide 5th edition or earlier).

There are a lot of reliable resources for mock exams and sample questions out there; even free ones.

I will send you a list of my favorite ones as a private message (since we ra not allowed to post external links here at the discussion board).

I felt the PM Challenge is helpful in the manner of increasing your speed to answer multiple choice questions.
And PMWar helps you to realize others are much more proficient at MC.
