5 out of 5 stars Best review I used...   August 23, 2008
I passed the PMP on the first try using this book and Rita Mulcahy's review. This guide has a great CD of exam questions that I reviewed over and over. Since I believe at least 60-75% of PMP (and most professional certification) exam questions are repeats for each exam, I found that reviewing the CD questions helped me gain confidence during reviews and taking the exam when I saw many of the same questions. The book is great as well, presenting the material in a different format than the other guides I used. This one is worth the money!


5 out of 5 stars The Key to Program Management in Easy to Learn Format   June 28, 2008

If you are working toward becoming a program manager, or a current program manager wanting to pursue certification, this book is excellent. It is well written and has exam preparation software so you can practice testing prior to taking your certification exam. The only shortcoming, which is very minor, is that the entire book is published black and white, which is somewhat boring and not as useful for charts and graphs. I assume that is a cost reduction for publishing and kept the price down.

Worth every penny. Would not have passed the exam without it. Listen to the audio on your ipod and read the book. Excellent


4 out of 5 stars Excellent PMP study resource   February 9, 2008
  5 out of 5 found this review helpful

The PMBOK guide is organized by knowledge areas, and this text presents the material by process groups. Looking at the project management processes from both perspectives was very helpful. The practice exam questions on the CD are close to what I saw on the actual exam, which I passed on my initial try. I also downloaded the audio recaps of each chapter to my iPod so I could listen while commuting. A couple of minor errors/typos, but overall I would recommend this book.
