Hi Daniel,

Indeed, the link is not working.

In my opinion, to pass the PMP exam is crucial to have done some course/training + additional 100 h of PMBOK thorough read, including doing many tests.

I strongly recommend Rita Mulcahy books - they provide a very wit summarized version of the PMBOK along with many useful tips.

Good luck to all PMP candidates!

I agree Hernandez, Rita's book offers a great summary of the PMBOK. Reading the PMBOK itself is also a must.

Some formal training courses are important too, especially if you don't have workplace experience. There are lots of great training companies out there, as well as courses put on by your local PMI chapter.

Here's a link to some of the books I found useful for studying the PMP: http://www.thisdigitaladventure.com/blog/2...ou-need-to-pass

1.Should have valid hands on experience.
2.Should attend classes? from a tutor who should be working in a project management role.
3.PMBOK, Rita's Book and Google.
4.Prepare your own Q&A on areas where you have gaps.
5.Try to relate the concepts with your project experience and examples.
6.Keep practicing from step 1 to 5 until you successfully fill your gaps.

Best wishes for passing the exam......
