Going to appear for the PMP certification exam soon. Suggestions on prep?

Rajan Shah Project Management| Infosys Langley, BC, Canada

Hi All,

I'm soon going to appear for the PMP certification exam. I want suggestions from people who have recently appeared for the exam.

I've recently (2 days ago) completed the 35 hours online training from UDEMY (Andrew Ramdayal).

Filled the application form. Waiting for it to get approved, so that I come to know about the next steps.

I've heard from the people that following preparation would be required:
1. Read PMBOK 7th edition
2. Read PMP exam preparation book by Rita Mulcahy
3. Read Agile practice guide
4. Learn by heart the EMV, EVM, PERT, communication channels, etc. formulae. Let me know if I've missed any formulae?
5. Practice questions from simulations (any suggestions?). Are there any free simulators available? or do we have to pay a hefty amount for that too?

Thanks.

Rajan Shah Your prep plan looks solid! Focus on practice tests—they help the most. Try free mocks on ExamTopics or paid ones like PrepCast. Memorize key formulas but also understand concepts. Rita’s book is great for real-world scenarios. Stay consistent, and you’ll ace it!

Hi Pavan,
I am trying to get some guidance on preparing for the exam as well. Is there a link to the free mocks on ExamTopics? How can I access that?
Thank you
