below you can find what I would do if I had to study again (passed with 5x AT and finished 30min earlier). I took the old exam, but I think the approach for studying can be similar.
0) Read this Reddit every day while studying (the experience reports from other exam takers help a lot):
www.reddit.com/r/pmp/
1) Watch the Vargas Video before you start reading a book. After this video I completely understood the connection between all process groups and knowledge areas:
2) Read a book twice (I used Rita and did all useful exercises while reading the book for the first time and answered all the questions (~400) when reading the book for the second time – but reading second time was more skimming)
3) Do the official PMP practice exam (I scored 67% - the result was a wake-up call to study more) - it is very close to the real exam in term of how questions are formulated
4) Practice questions. I bought Prepcast and did more than 1000 questions. I always took 10-20 questions and then reviewed the correct and incorrect ones. This is where I learned the most. The explanations from Prepcast are great and I really liked that the explanations are directly under the questions (so you can study very efficient since you don’t have to read the PMBook for the explanation). On Prepcast I had 81% correct on first attempt.
5) Retake the PMP Practice exam (second time I scored 83%)
