Customer Reviews

Don't buy this!1 Don't buy this software! This software is a waste of money! There are 50 real PMBOK questions that they repeat over and over and the remainder of the questions don't represent the real test. Not sure what software the reviewers with all the great reviews were using - maybe they wrote the software and are looking for customers. I hope Amazon will take this back. Good Simple Study Guide for Input, Tools, Outputs3 I bought this book to speed thru the review of the PMP processes. I have Kim's other book (PMP Project Management Professional Exam Study guide), but needed a way to quickly see the inputs, tools and outputs without the surrounding verbiage found elsewhere. The book delivered this need for me. The PMBOK Guide will serve the same function as this PMP exam review guide if you have it on your shelf. The CD on this book does not include as many tests as found on the one in the PMP Study Guide. The book met my expectations but did not exceed them. PMP Project Management Professional Exam Review Guide Concise Quick Review5 I would peruse this review guide before tackling any other reading on this subject. This gives you an overview of project management from beginning to end. What I especially like is the glossary of terms. Learning the language first will help you with your reading of the more in depth books (this is not a substitute for you in depth reading). There are also flash cards which are a good study aid. If you begin with this book, the concepts of project management will not be as overwhelming because the material is clear and understandable. Very well written. This will also help you if you are straddling the fence concerning whether you want to become certified or pursue a degree in this area.
