Exam simulator helps a lot in studying for the exam

Eric Chan

Passed the exam above target in all knowledge areas 1st time.  Used the PM Exam Simulator to prep for the exam.  Being able to pick questions from a particular knowledge area, a particular process group, or just randomly pick a handful of questions to work on is a really nice feature.  Liked that a lot when I can only spare 20 minutes before bed time to practice some test questions.
The full 4-hour practice exams are good practice over the weekends.  I can honestly say if I didn't try a few of these and went straight to the real thing on exam day … the test probably would rattle me just because the clock keeps ticking.  The simulator trained me to time myself consistently, not to get stuck on any one question, mark it and come back to it when there's time left at the end.  It's an approach I actually used on the real exam.  I had about 20 minutes left after doing all 200 questions and came back to the ones I wasn't sure about and corrected a few answers.
I didn't always agree with the questions and the explanations, but that's probably to be expected with situational questions.  Some of them I thought were kind of vague.  The number of questions I had this kind of problem with wasn't large so I'd say the quality of the questions are good.  Also, I have to commend the team behind the simulator.  They read and responded to the comments I had about the questions providing feedback about the intent of the questions and in some cases changed the wordings.  It's great customer service.  Really appreciated it.
The practice questions did make me think really hard.  They helped identify knowledge gaps really well, which helped me identify what I needed to focus on more.
Overall, I'd say the PM Exam Simulator is a really great tool.  I have to attribute successfully passing the PMP exam to The PMP Exam Simulator.

I strongly recommend PM Prepcast to PMP aspirants

Natarajan Vijikarthik

Passed my PMP on my first attempt. After extensive research, I have chosen PM PrepCast out of other providers. This was my best ever decision and primarily used PMP Prepcast & PM Exam Simulator due to my limited time. The video lessons are awesome and to the point. It covered all the concepts needed for the exam.

I wanted to read PMBOK alteast once, but due to limited time I just read glossary once. Also I just took 3 mocks from PM simulator after listening the videos. High quality questions and explanations for both correct and incorrect choices makes clear understanding of the concepts.

Overall, PM PrepCast & PM Exam Simulator worked well for me and I highly recommend this product.

PMP Exam

Richard Oruche

Take One - Result (FAIL)
- After studying for the PMP exam for one month using Rita Mulcahy's PMP exam Prep & PMBOK Guide, I felt confident that I was ready to take and pass the PMP exam. I invested several hours a day in studying the terminology, knowledge ares, and the sequence of activities. Unfortunately, none of the studying material I have prepared me for the type of questions presented on the exam. I FAILED and had a brief moment of sorrow, depression and despair. 

Take Two - Result (PASS)
After failing my first attempt at the PMP exam using other study material, I was motivated to find study material that will expose me to the type of questions the exam contained. I would highly recommend the PM PrepCast Exam Simulator to anyone that is looking to pass the PMP Exam! The format of the questions provided are the closest to what you will see on the actual exam, and I can proudly say I PASSED my second attempt at the PMP exam!

Best Value PM Course

Geraldine Del Rosario

I purchased the PM PrepCast last December 2017 and took my PMP Exam last February 2018 and it was one of the best decisions I ever made in my life. Prior to PM PrepCast, I also purchased another video course and it wasn't at all helpful. But the PM PrepCast is another story. It was interesting and very helpful, especially the exam tips and sample exam questions given at the end of a video chapter. I listened to all the videos, took notes and took sample simulation exams and all my effort paid off thanks to this video course. I got Above Target for all 5 Domains and its largely due to PM Prepcast.

Passed PMP First Attempt

Bhaskara Rao

PM Prepcast PMP Exam simulator is extremely helpful in preparing the PMP exam and clearing it successfully in the first attempt itself. 
I looked into the most of the other PMP exam preparation resources available in the online market and this is the best choice due to its content presentation and accuracy of explanations provided for both correct and wrong answers etc and also the way quizzes structured for learning phase.
I attempted all learning questions domain wise and marked in PMBOC guide with the explanations provided and it helped me greatly to understand various relations and process flow involved without spending too much of time in reading the entire PMBOC guide word by word.

Great product, PMP certified on the first attempt!

Frans Bossert

I came across the PM PrepCast and PM Exam Simulator and placed my order about three months before my exam date. During my daily commute I would listen to a section of the PrepCast and during the evenings I would scan through the PMBok and make notes of the core concepts. During the last week I focused on completing three of the exam simulations and based on the results I focused on any areas I felt were lacking.

The day of my exam I felt prepared and confident, I even came across a few questions on items that Cornelius mentioned during the PrepCast which was nowhere to be found in the PMBok. With the help of Cornelius and the depth of information he shares with this product my road to becoming a PMP was a very smooth one. It was worth every penny and I go out of my way to recommend it to my colleagues undertaking their PMP certifications.

PMP Certified

Venu Madhav

Hi,

I sat for the exam on 25th June 2018, I was through PMP. I will give most of the credit to the PM PrepCast for the simulation exams.
The exams are scenarios based, that helped me in coming up with the strategy, to answer the questions smartly like finding the keywords, selecting the best right choice in the exam.
Thanks from the bottom of my heart to PMP PrepCast for helping PMP-aspirants in achieving their PMP dream.

Cheers!!!

Become PMP Certified on June 8 2018 !!!

ROBERTO MARLEY

Hello everyone,
In order to PASS the real PMP exam, it takes you a whole village because PMP is the toughest exam that you will face in your professional career. I have used the PM PrepCast by Cornelius Fitcher product myself since February, 2018. However, I did not make myself committed enough in order to clear the PMP on my first try. But, it does not matter how many times you take the PMP, and as long as you PASS and that's what matters the most. To make the story short, after I reviewed all the lessons learned from PrepCast and adding more time to my study schedule which made my preparation the crystal clear to me. I am really happy to become a PMP Certified on June 08 2018 because all my hard work has been paid off. Also, I have posted the lessons learned that contributed to my success, too. I want to thank all the stuff that have worked really hard to make this journey possible for me. PrepCast mock exam is the product in the market because it makes you ready mentally to prepare for the worst. And, I became a little nervous because I could never score above 75% on all my quizzes. But, the way their product design is to build your knowledge about PMI tools and techniques. After almost 3 months of hard work, I have decided to take my last chance because I wanted to become a PMP certified so bad, but my dream became true on June 08, 2018 when I went to sit for the exam. After 4 hours sitting and panic on that date, I hit the end exam button and the screen shot on the computer appeared as follow: CONGRATULATIONS !!!! I can never that date which has changed my life. I would encourage anyone that is interested in becoming a PMP certified not to take this tough exam lightly. PMP is made to trick you regardless, but a dedicate plan will make you overcome this challenge. If I make it today it's because of everyone contribution and great thanks to the lessons learned. In addition, all the staff are good in responding quick and PM PrepCast has the best product on the market. I will advertise this product with all my colleagues, friends and families because it has made a big impact in my preparation. Here's a link into my LinkedIn for you to take a look. Also, you can check PMI registry on google to verify my PMP credential, too.  Thanks!!!!!!!

Passed PMP on 1st Attempt with 5 AT

Gary Coblenz
WCG

PrepCast is all I needed. The program is first rate and covers all required content to pass the PMP. I watched all the video lessons covering the Knowledge Areas and used the Exam Simulator to answer about 900 questions. I took one full practice exam and the remaining questions I answered using 10-20 question quizzes. This combination was more than adequate preparation for the exam.  Once I was averaging about 75%, I was confident. Using the PMBOK Guide as a resource to clarify and review content in the Prepcast and doing quizzes five days a week for 2 1/2 months completed prepared me for the exam. Full disclosure, I have been in finance and project management for over 25 years, so any content referring to finance or general business practices were not difficult for me. The main thing I got out of PM PrepCast was learning the vocabulary, processes and knowledge areas contained in the PMBOK Guide. Understanding this foundation is key to passing the exam and Prepcast covers this very well.  If visual learning works for you, I strongly recommend PM PrepCast and the PM Exam Simulator.

PMP Prepcast + Exam Simulator = Success

Mike Wernau

I was able to pass the PMP Exam on the first try using the PM PrepCast materials.  The PrepCast provided the "glue" I needed to stick with my study plan, while managing a busy job schedule and family life.  I listened to the PrepCast videos on my way to work and watched them in the evenings, during halftime, while waiting in line - basically any free moment that came along.

In addition to the PrepCast, I purchased a good study guide (Rita's), as well as the PMP Exam Simulator and Flashcards.  I studied 1-2 hours on weeknights and roughly 6-10 hours on the weekends, for a period of two months before scheduling the exam.  Definitely schedule the exam, as Cornelius suggests - do not wait!  Scheduling the exam will change your outlook on studying and provide some additional motivation, especially when you know the exam is only several weeks away.  

In the final weeks leading up to the exam I followed Cornelius's advice and took at least three practice tests using the PMP Exam Simulator.  Looking back, I wish I had taken the practice exams sooner.  The practice exams narrowed in on the areas I needed to focus on and also taught me how to best pace myself.  Take as many practice tests as you can. The Simulator's interface makes it very easy to review wrong answers and at the same time provides explanations as to why the right answer is THE BEST answer.  PM PrepCast is THE BEST!  

Thanks Cornelius!

Passed PMP Exam

I passed my PMP exam on the second attempt. The reason I failed the first time is because I used the wrong practice test software. The questions that I was giving was very easy and not like the PMP exam. After taking the exam the first time, and looking for more test like practice I found this PrepCast. I couldn't have passed the PMP exam without it. Cornelius is very good in the videos, but the most important thing the Prep Cast offered me was real life simulation exams. I took about four of them before my test, and I aced the PMP exam. My results when from barely passing to, all above target.

Great Practice Exams, Course Detailed

Matthew M

I took the Agile Prepcast for my PMI-ACP. I found that the video course was very detailed, but almost too detailed for the purpose of passing the test-- the knowledge was good. I had to skim through and skip certain parts, but it's nice that you can do that since the videos are broken out into sections. The real value I found was purchasing the practice test/exam simulator. The questions I found were ever so slightly harder than the actual PMI-ACP exam questions. If you can get a 75%+ on the exam simulator, you will pass the PMI-ACP no problem. I was above average in knowledge level when my results came in from the PMI-ACP test. Make sure you take the exam simulator in quiz mode so you can review as you go!

Fantastic Prep Course!

I searched around the web and found hundreds of sites with sample exams , tips and tricks for passing the PMP exam however nothing compared to the PM PrepCast. The online exam similator is the closest thing you will get to the real thing when it comes to concepts, timing and content for the PMP exam. The ability to learn at your own pace while to taking the sample exams was a real bonus. The videos were great as well . It was easy to follow along and Cornelius explained the concepts in a way that made the entire program interesting which kept me fully engaged the entire time. I can honestly say this course really helped me pass my PMP exam. Cornelius, my PMP certificate is now proudly hanging on the wall in my office for all to see. Thank you for your regular communication and for offering a fantastic program.  I would highly recommend this to anyone preparing for the PMP exam.

The PM PrepCast and the PM Exam Simulator were great products!  I would not have passed if I didn't use them!

About a month from the exam, I shifted my focus to using the exam simulator every day and taking short timed or learning quizzes.  That helped me get into the exam taking mode.  The quizzes helped identify the areas that I needed to focus on.

I found PM PrepCast to be a useful tool that truly helped me pass my PMP exam.  Not only did I gain the benefit of passing my PMP exam, I also have knowledge about how a project should be managed and what I need to do to remain a successful PMP. 

The training videos are lengthy, with a lot of repetition.  This can be both a benefit and a hindrance.  At first, I was getting frustrated with the repetitions at the beginning of each video. But along the way I started repeating the same materials and in no time I was understanding the video trainings much better.

If anyone is not interested in the repetitions, skip over, but I would advise not to.  Repetition helps it stick!

SANJEEV K SURAM

Thank you Mr. Cornelius Fitchner,

I passed PMP (PMBook5) in my first attempt with above target score, but got little late in writing this review. I started off reading only PMBOK5 initially for a couple of months and then one of my friend referred about this wonderful site which changed my way of preparation. Normally I prefer to read than watching the videos, but in this one the way Mr. Fitchner explained each topic was interesting. The best of the course package is the Simulator exams. They are pretty close to the actual exam. Treating each simulator exam as an actual one and referring to the material for the incorrectly answered topics immediately has helped me tremendously in my preparation. And the concise format of all the formulas put together was very handy and saved my time.  And just one week before the exam, I have completed the self-assessment questions in all the topics successfully which boosted my confidence. Thanks again Mr. Fitchner and the PMPrepcast team.

Awesome Test Prep Material

I spent a week preparing for the CAPM exam, with the last three days using the CAPM test simulator program...awesome.  I cannot imagine how anyone could pass the simulator exams and not pass the real test, because the simulator truly ensures you understand the PMBOK.  I will most definitely utilize PM PrepCast when I sit for the PMP exam.  If you're on the fence about whether or not it's worth the money, don't be...it was the best investment I made to ensure I would breeze through the exam.

I was scheduled to take the PMP exam on 3/22/18. PMI/Prometric cancelled the exam and did not provide any possible reschedule dates before the exam was changed over to PMBOK 6. Many people were affected by this and after spending $100's & 100's of hours prepping for the exam on PMBOK 5, I now have to re-tool and rededicate myself to pass the new exam.
I went to PMI for assistance and they offered no relief...
I emailed Cornelius and the PM Prep Cast team and they immediately understood and upgraded my PMBOK 5 premium access so that I may prepare for the new test!
As if that is not enough, PM Prep Cast is a stellar product! 
The content and delivery is robust. The material is logically presented in a manner that easily aligns itself with creating a study plan to achieve your certification goals. The lessons are packed with relevant information and are arranged in such a way that  they accommodate any schedule.
Thank you Cornelius Fichtner and thank you PM Prep Cast!

PMP Success with PrepCast

Shervin Monemjou

I am a Clinical Research Project Manager and I have been wanting to get my PMP for quite some time. After deciding to begin my journey, I did lots of research on which online courses offer the best comprehensive lessons and practice material. Time and time again, PM PrepCast came up so I decided to go with it. I give large credit to PM PrepCast for my success in achieving the PMP. 

The courses are broken up into manageable units which makes spacing out the studying very easy and accessible. Cornelius approaches each chapter with real-life examples, so it makes learning the concepts much more simple. I studied these courses for about 1 month and spent my last month of studying working on the exam simulators offered through PM PrepCast. The PMP exam simulators were one of the biggest factors on why I achieved my designation. The content matched the real PMP exam more than any other full-length simulators I did during my studies (and I did many!). The responses were also accompanied by detailed description of why the answers were correct or incorrect. This was a great supplemental learning tool to the courses. 

I will absolutely be using PM PrepCast moving forward on my other Project Management endeavors. Thank you to Cornelius for making this otherwise dry journey a memorable and easy one!

Good Exam Prep Questions

Melanie

I found the videos to provide a very good informative overview of Agile. However, what helped me the most with studying and passing the PMI-ACP exam was the Exam Simulator. The questions are much more like what is on the exam than what you find in free prep exams online. Very situational and make you think of how to use the ideas of Agile rather than being remember and regurgitate style questions.

I used the PM PrepCast to prepare for my PMP exam.  I studied for about 3 months, using the online tutorials.  I downloaded the tutorials to my phone and played them via Bluetooth in my truck while driving to work.  The tutorials were very thorough, almost too thorough at times.  I also purchased the exam simulator which is a must.  Taking the full 200 question exam over and over really prepared me well for the long exam. In all, I would certainly recommend this product to others.

I passed with PM PrepCast

Wendi Short
Advanced ICU Care

One year ago, I failed my PMP exam...for the second time.  I was utterly frustrated with the level of training from a local bootcamp that I had paid a lot of money for.  Five days of constant information being thrown my way, and I tried very hard to disseminate it all.  At the end of the third day, my brain was numb and overwhelmed with the amount of information and speed it was being given.  Suffice to say, I did not pass and earned Moderately Proficient and/or Below Proficient in all areas.

When I realized that the Sixth Edition was upon me, two months before I was to take the exam I re-read Cornelius' website and began listening to the  PM PrepCast!  This is by far, the best information I have received to understand the topics tested in the PMP exam.  The consistent nature of the podcasts and the wonderful way I was able to listen either at home on my computer, on my phone with headphones or in my car through my phone (on the drive to/from work).  This was an amazing way to learn the information on a speed and level at which I needed.  The PM PrepCast reviewed all terms and items I saw in my exam, and did so with such a fundamental and easy-to-understand way of teaching that it did not even feel like teaching.  It felt like one large process that Cornelius was able to explain in terms and steps I could understand.

Between the PM PrepCast and Cornelius' PMP Test Simulator, each went hand-in-hand teaching the basic parts of the processes, terminology, order of knowledge areas and even great work on understanding the ITTO's without memorization!  I committed a full two hours of study 5 days/week with 3 hours of study on weekends, and the addition of taking one full 200-exam one time each weekend.  I did add a tutor, closely aligned to Cornelius' teachings to this study plan, the PMBOK for referencing all of my Q&A's I missed and Andy Crowe's book.  This training plan progressed for nine weeks before taking the exam.  I passed with Target in all areas and one Above Target!!  Thanks to Cornelius' PM PrepCast and Exam Simulator, I was able to feel 100% better when taking this exam, felt confident with the large majority of my answers and finished with plenty of time to review!  I KNOW this was due to the PM PrepCast and PMP Exam Simulator.  Many, many thanks for your help in getting me across the finish line!!

Best Way to learn for the PMP Exam

Thomas Oberrauner

I can highly recommend to use the PMP PrepCast to learn for the PMP Exam. It is really the best way to learn where you want and when you want. It is easy to allocate some time every day to go through the lessons. 

The Simulator is also very realistic and everybody should use this opportunity to simulate a 4h Exam under realistic conditions. Afterwards, you have to chance to go though the wrong answered questions.

I Passed because of your help

Geri

So excited to say I passed the PMP exam on my first attempt on Friday March 23 thanks to PM PrepCast. I felt pressure to “get it done” since the exam was changing on Monday March 26, 2018. The thought of starting over on PMBoK 6 edition was not a path I wanted to take. Who wants to be the guinea pig on the 1st exam. 
To prep for the exam I purchased the PM Prep-Cast on January 4th with the exam simulator. I watched the core PodCast during my morning walks or when driving to work and took 8 out of the 9 test and saw my scores continued to better. I found the best feature was to see the results sections in the exams which showed areas (knowledge or process) that I was struggling in to re-watch PodCast and then retest. 
If I were to do it again (thank goodness I don’t need to) I would not just listen to the PodCast but instead watch and listen to them together which was a useful way to remember the concepts. I also found the simulator test through PM PrepCast to include more detail than the exam which were more vague and if you didn’t understand the concept, there were multiple answers that would fit. Understanding the process is key. 
The weekend of March 10 & 11 I signed up for Weekend Coaching session with Dan Ryan and he simplified so many of the concepts and help me prioritize what information I should focus on. He also shared some worksheets and excel document with Knowledge Areas and Processes that linked to each other which helped me sort out in my mind the process and connections between inputs, outputs and ITTOs. This training was invaluable. 
Good luck to you, hope this helps.

Proud new PMP

susan pistacchio

I just got my PMP certification and I am so proud of myself.  This was the most studying I have had to do in many years.  The PM Prepcast was such a huge help.  It is tailored in nice size packages that are easy to digest.  I came up with a schedule to review the videos and then read through the corresponding PMBOK section.  After I was done with all I read through the PMBOK a 2nd time.   The best advise I could give is to purchase the simulator exams.  I took all 9 and felt very comfortable going into my test.  I knew my pace.  The simulator was extremely close to the real deal and I wasn't hit with anything unknown on my test.  Doing the simulators also helped me determine my weak areas.

I thought the cost module would be my tricky area so I memorized all the formulas.  Doing the simulator test I determine ITTOs were a weak area so I also created an excel spreadsheet of all the ITTOs and created a scramble game for myself.  

I passed with an above average score in all areas.  Yeah me.  I'm giving myself a break of 2-3 weeks and then starting on my ACP certification.  I will be using PM Precast.  Thank you Cornelius.

Incredible

Mathias Stanley

With PreCast simulator I took only 4 complete exams and I have never passed all these exams the marks I got it was 57%, 63.5%,65.5%, 66% respectively. I was afraid if I am going to pass the real exam since many of the sites recommend to pass above 71% marks for mock exams, and I have a little time remained to sit for exams I didn’t have time to attend the remained mock exams, since it was switching to Sixth edition. No way out I needed to sit for exams.

I passed real PMP exams, with BT, AT,T,AT,AT in the respectively domains on the first try!  I recommend this tool to anybody who has a dream to certify for PMP.  It explain different tricks for exams questions and concepts!!! Try it and I am sure you will come back to this site to give testimony for your success!

Amazing content and simulator

Akhil Khandelwal

I used PrepCast simulator for almost 2 months and gave 5 simulation exams. I covered almost 70 percent questions on the simulator. Simulator questions are close to the real questions which would appear on the exam. I actually reviewed multiple simulator before buying this one and  I am glad that my decision was right.

Few things I found very useful. Among them was the feature to review the question which were answered wrongly. So I had two passes on the exams, one the real ones and one with the wrong questions. 

Also, you can mark tough questions and visit them later on.

Language is simple and there are very minimum errors and typos. Quality is a big plus point with this simulator. It will not confuse you as many others can do with you. 
Overall I am quite satisfied.  I cleared the PMP exam on first attempt and had "Above Target" in all the domain areas. 

Thank you team PrepCast for coming up such a wonderful product.

Incredible

With PreCast simulator I took only 4 complete exams and I have never passed all these exams the marks I got it was 57%, 63.5%,65.5%, 66% respectively. I was afraid if I am going to pass the real exam since many of the sites recommend to pass above 71% marks for mock exams, and I have a little time remained to sit for exams I didn’t have time to attend the remained mock exams, since it was switching to Sixth edition.

Excellent start to my preparation for the PMI-ACP Exam

Bill McDonough

The Agile PrepCast was an excellent beginning to my studies for the PMI-ACP Exam. I found the content to be well organized and clearly presented, with plenty of real-world examples. The style was consistent throughout most of the episodes, except for (understandably) those included from the PMP PrepCast. As my first formal Agile training class, I found the series to be an excellent introduction to and explanation of all the component parts of the PMI-ACP certification. I appreciated the opportunity to gain not only the required contact hours of training, but the 37 PDUs I earned were a huge bonus that enabled me to renew my PMP certification early!

Ultimately, the Exam Simulator was key to my success in passing the PMI-ACP Exam on my first try. I scored 75% after completing the course, then studied from the Mike Griffiths PMI-ACP Exam Prep book and workbook to expand my understanding. Afterwards, I repeated the Exam Simulator test 3 times until I got my score above 90%. That built my confidence and enabled me to pass the exam on my first try.

Cleared PMP exam in first pass

Bhushana PMP

Hi,

I cleared my PMP exam today. Your daily  free PMP Sample Exams helped a lot. The exam was intense, complex and surprisingly had a much higher difficulty level than all the online tests available. Your questions were closest to the actual exam. I would suggest to increase the number of situational questions in your mock exams just as the real exam.

Regards,
Bhushana

Meh

Michael Popovich

Interface: Pretty similar to the actual exam, minus the ability to highlight sections within the question or strikeout answer options.

Question Bank:  I passed the PMP exam today (23MAR2018) and I thought questions in the PM Exam Simulator were worded extremely close to the how questions were presented in the real exam.  However, where I think the Exam Simulator falls short is the specific difficulty in answering.  I found the exam to generally have 2-3 plausible answers for a large portion of questions that required thorough understanding and/or analysis.  The simulator, on the other hand, had too many direct questions with one very obvious answer.  Rarely did I have to perform any typical test taking strategies, like eliminating 2 answers on the exam simulator.

Retrospect:  I passed, but I can't quantify how much this software in fact helped.  I guess it certainly prepared me for the reading/comprehension of questions, but I don't think it helped much towards answering them.

Must Buy: real time simulator, Cleared in first attempt

Chetan Arora

 I gave my exam yesterday , on 22nd March 2018. I didn't know about this simulator until 15th March 2018, YES until a week before my exam. My good friend from USA, who also recently cleared PMP in the year 2017 asked about my progress and suggested to purchase this. 

Till then, I was trying solve free exam questions available online. Honestly I was worried to spend another $100 as I was only 6 days away from PMP exam. I knew I won't be able to solve all 8 exams, which come with the package.  But after reading reviews and going with friend suggestion I bought it. 

This exam gives you real exam feeling as you have to spend 3.5 minimum hours to complete and level is similar to what I got yesterday in PMP exam, 
Strategy: 
My plan was to give 5 exams and go through all questions, I mean all questions whether it is correct or wrong ( Correct question :You have go back back  and understand again why you marked that and see if it aligns with your thought) . Its a real time simulator. From exam 1st till my last PM-simulator 5th exam I was ranging between 80 to 90 %. I was happy with my progress. But as said I was still sitting another 2.5 hours in analysing both correct and wrong question and putting notes in my notebook where I lacked the gaps. 

Certainly, this is a must buy.

Great Program!

Michelle K.

I was fairly new to the official ways of project management and the PrepCast gave me the best foundational understanding I could have asked for. The videos were easy to understand and entertaining to listen too (not dry like the book). The videos took the very technical terminology and made it easy to comprehend and relate to my everyday life.  Being able to listen to them on my very long commute helped with items I needed a refresher on or needed more clarification. Thank you!!

BEST PMP TEST TOOL

tony

I took my pmp exam today 3/21/18. and i passed above target in all domains. Bottomline, the prepcast made me pass.
i started studying in Jan 18. i read the Rita exam prep cover to cover and i took notes. i later purchased the prepcast early feb and went through all the test scoring 67% on the first one i took and averaging 80% in all subsequent test. anyones i got wrong i went back to review and also read through the answers. it gave me a good insight on how to answer the questions especally the tricky ones.
for anyone that wants to take the exam in the future, i suggest purchasing the prepcast and go over all the test. questions in the real pmp exam were very similar. asper the ITTOS, you dont need to memorise them, just understand the relationships. I will like to say a BIG THANK YOU to all the prepcast crew.

Take the exam simulator...if you want to pass !!

Maria Soerensen

I just passed my PMP with overall mark Target. It was my first attempt. I got Target on planning and closing, all the others Above Target. The difficulty is this: In most of the questions, the 4 choice answers ARE NOT stated directly as it is written on the PMBOK. Example: if you read on the book that the PM has to closely monitor a high-power high-interest stakeholder, you won't find in the choices this statement, instead you may find: "send weekly performance reports", "always invite him to the  focus group meetings"...and so on. You have to figure it out the synonymous of the phrase, this added to the fact that you only have 1 minute per answer, is the main challenge. The exam simulator is so crucial that I would say don't even dare to sit at the real exam if you haven't gone thru the simulator !

Passed my PMP-1st Attempt

Grace Kinyua

My PMP journey started 5 years ago having purchased the PMBOK which 'patiently' gathered dust in my shelves.
In 2016, I paid for some classes which in all honestly left me more confused. I then applied for professional development training scholarship from pmief towards the end of 2016 and was successful. I enrolled and watched the prepcast videos which were very insightful and gave me a better understanding of the Pmbok. Cornelius is an amazing teacher. I have to admit though that I  didn't do much studying in 2017. (Let me digress abit, I have missed out on 2 eligibility periods between 2015 and 2016 mostly out of fear)
Finally I went into panic mode when I realized the standard was changing and I had to take the exam before March 26th.... So I paid for the exam in January and set the date for my exam as 16th March.
I started studying very seriously in Mid January 2018.
2 weeks before I sat for the exam, I took 2 weeks off from work and spend 4 hours studying and 4 hours doing a simulation exam. My results rated between 80 and 89....average I think was 82 or 81.
On 15th of March I took the last simulation exam and was confident I at least had the endurance to answer questions for 4 hours. Please do not underestimate just how long four hours can be.
On the exam day I went through my notes and went for the exam and I was super excited to have scored Above Target on 4 Domains and Target on one domain. I finished answering the questions in 3 hours and spent the next hour reviewing all my answers especially those ones I had marked.
My  overall score was above target which is something I am proud of.
I wish anyone who is taking this PMP journey the best of luck. Make the PMBOK your best friend.
Best of luck,
Grace

PMP PrepCast

Vijay Sangolli

The PMP simulator mocks tests very helpful. I took 5 tests before final PMP exam and cleared. As most of questions in PMP are scenario based and mock tests will help understand scenarios rather remembering ITTOs.
