Hello Guys,

I need expert advice on my current situation.
So far, i have referred to the RITA's book 3 times after my failed 1st attempt on 30th April.
I am quite confident about all the Knowledge Areas. And i have been testing my knowledge over the free mock tests available online. So, i was thinking about re-attempting the Exam on 20th June.
But amongst these free tests i find many tests to be very simple and do not have situational questions like the PMP exam has.
So, could anyone please suggest me a paid online PMP exam simulator that is very good and has situational questions similar to those that are faced on the actual PMP Examination?

I used Kaplan IT -- but there is a fee ($149), which is based on 180 days of access.

Regardless of what you ultimately choose, you should take several seatings of the 200 question exam (with questions being different for each test) … and successively improve your score -- into the 80 percentile.

Review all questions answered incorrectly and understand how you missed choosing the right answer (lessons learned that can be applied in your next seating). Use your time wisely for each test. If you are finishing in less than 3 hours you are probably rushing yourself unnecessarily.

From my side, I do recommend:

- RMC Fast Track
- PM PrepCast

Great sources for simulation exams that mimic the real exam and they are worth the investment. I do not advice practicing lots of free exam as in my experience, they either do not mimic the real exam or are a bit misleading and confusing.

Good Luck.

I recommend you to find the PMISM that is just like the core principles to take exam for better selection. When you get stuck in exam, PMISM will lead you to choose the right one. Good luck.

Can you update us how do you find PM Prep Cast Niraj and how it is closer to actual PMP exam in terms of situational questions?

Replying to Sharon Collins
...
Don't be discouraged, I have met many that have failed the first time. I did not, I was referred to Rita and to Andy Crowe. I am a more visual learner, that needs to picture the question in my mind. Andy's book does that, attached to the book is a trial of his online course that includes access to two practice test that were very helpful as well as an introduction to the online training. Had I not waited until two weeks before the test, I would have selected his online course in its entirety (I think). I passed so I did not have to go looking for another resource. Good luck!
Hello Sharon, did you pass after only 2 weeks of studying? I am trying to optimize my perp startegy since I need to pass the test in 1 month. What would you recommend to be the best way to prepare?
I am looking for optimized preparing strategy. Current situation:
- read PMBOK (not memorizing, just reading) once
- now reading Ritas book in parallel making notes on most important things, and then doing tests to each chapter. So far - so good, though worried by the end of the book, the info will be mixed. I am kind of worried on ITTOs part especially.
- after completing Ritas book, will do the Fasttrack simulation
- also plan to do pm prepcast.

Since I am limited in time to roughly 1 month further preparation, would you be so kind as to recommend a list of what needs to be memorized 100% (e.g. fromulas, ITTOs, etc)? I mean what is the most important thing that you really crammed (e.g. my ex-collegaue, with whom i have no contact anymore took test around 5 years ago and said it was really useful to write down in the beginning of the test a list of most important concepts/formulas on a paper provided by the test center and then refer to that during the exam). What would you learn to put on that paper? What would you really cram?
Thanks a lot
