I went ahead and did it. I scheduled my RMP exam for February 22nd. I now have almost 4 weeks to get my practice test scores up from the mid 70s to the mid 80s. That is where I like to be before taking the exam.

So far I have taken 2 online classes, went through one prep book and am working my way through the second one, have an app with questions, have 4 online practice exams (part of the one course) that I have taken and retaken, and have a practice exam in the back on one of the books that I am working my way through.

Wish me luck.

Dear Dinah,

Good Luck! I passed my exam on this Thursday.

The most important points to focus on for PMI-RMP from my perspective are:

1- Read the Practice Standard for Project Risk Management and PMBOK5 CH11 four times.

2- Read the Exam Content Outline many times until you understand it perfectly.

3- Read Communication Management PMBOK CH10 and Stakeholders Management PMBOK CH13 two times.

4- During the reading of the materials solve questions for refreshing the knowledge.

5- Practice Standard CH1, CH2 and CH3 are important chapters to know the risk concepts.

6- ITTOs For the 13 processes in PMBOK (H10,CH11,CH13) save it in your mind with the perfect understanding of the contents.

7- Critical success factors for project risk management and the six processes
save it in your mind with the perfect understanding of the contents of the Practice Standard.

8- Control Risk process very important.

9- Save the five points of the Status Meeting in your mind, available in the last pages of the Practice Standard.

10- Appendix D very important, you have to know and understand the definitions of all tools as well as you have to know the tools of each process.

11- Role of the project manager very important in Practice Standard Ch2.

12- Lessons Learned very important, you have to know what and when to update, available in the Control process.

13- Risk Response plans very important.

14- Difference between Contingency and Management Reserves.

15- Attitude, appetite, tolerance, threshold and Attitude types very important.

16- Probability and Impact matrix.

17- Strategies for Positive and Negative risks.

18- Monte Carlo & Latin HyperCube
