What is the most effective method of preparing for the PMP certification examination?

One of the most challenging certification exams in the corporate world is the PMP - Project Management Professional. It is also one of the most weighted. PMP is serious. It requires more than textbook knowledge to get it. In short, decide you have to earn it and instill the discipline, and you do your best to close the gap in your understanding. However, the fear caused by passing this exam is unmatched.

The difficulty is that PMP exams are designed to eliminate candidates who do not have the qualifications to become project management professionals. Most of the questions on the exam are scenario-based. There are only a few theory and math problems. Answering scenario-based questions require applying your experience as a project manager under the PMBOK and for theoretical and mathematical questions, definitions of processes, tools, and methods, as well as several project management jargon and practices. It can be found in the latest issue of PMBOK.

There are 200 questions in the exam, and 25 of these 200 questions are not reflected in the final grade. Your results are based on 175 questions. But the problem is that we don't know which questions are scoreable and which ones aren't. You also don't know your final grade.?

Your score is ranked according to a four-step non-metric scale.

?Need improvement | under target | Purpose | Goal or higher?

You will only pass if your final score is either target or above the target level.

You will have 4 hours to complete the exam. It looks easy, but it's not that easy for exams like the PMP.
