Hope you have gone through the PMBOK guide 6th edition completely. Review the glossary to make sure you could recollect the key terms and the knowledge areas . This will help to identify knowledge area for the situational base questions in the PMP exam. Additionally review all the formula .

All the best for your exam.

OK, I first recommend to do as many Q&A as you can. Hope you have a set of at least 40 for each knowledge area. If you fail a question or do not understand the solution fully, check in PMBoK or in a book explaining it (like RMC, Rita).

Second, did you summarize the PMBoK by yourself, if yes, review it: the processes and ITTOs might be necessary to understand. Summarize all formulas like for EV, communication paths.

I took mine last Monday and put my tips on my blog:

The course here costs about $100 and it gets you the 35 Contact Hours: Master of Project Academy
Read the PMBOK guide 6th edition
I made these study guide slideshows: Project Management Processes – PMP Study Guides.
This book is an excellent source of information and practice questions for the exam: PMP Exam Prep Simplified
I always like to try and take two different courses, you can get this one from Udemy for between $10-$20: https://www.udemy.com/pmp-pmbok6-35-pdus/
Start studying as early as possible – take a couple of months to study
Take notes during your studying, stop the videos and go back if you don’t get all your notes down – writing it helps to retain it
Read each question carefully and read them twice; don’t rush to answer

You are 10 days away. All of the prep work has probably been completed. Last minute items I reviewed was to go through the formulas right before the test.

The most important thing to do now is get a good nights sleep before the exam, relax and keep telling yourself that you can do it.

Good Luck

Being this close, the hard effort is essentially complete. Now time to focus on test strategy, tying up loose-ends or weak areas and mind-body health. 4-hours/200 questions takes much focus. Good luck. Looking forward to hearing of your success story!
