Phillips CAPM is obsolete,
By
This review is from: CAPM(TM) Certified Associate in Project Management All-in-One Exam Guide (Hardcover)
Do not buy this book unless you are being retested on the old PMP or CAPM exam. This book is based on the 2nd edition (2000) of the PMBOK and is therefore obsolete. The current exams use the 3rd edition (2004) of the PMBOK. Much has changed so this book will mislead you and you will answer exams questions incorrectly. The processes, process groups, some definition have changed. As a result, many of his test questions will be wrong also. I am a PMP and I teach PMP and CAPM test prep sessions.

"All in One CAPM Exam Guide" a Bust,
By Frankie (Des Moines, IA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: CAPM(TM) Certified Associate in Project Management All-in-One Exam Guide (Hardcover)
This is a good overall Project Management book - but it is not a good CAPM Exam guide. I scored 93% on the chapter tests in the book and failed the CAPM test. There was only about 10% of the information from the book on the actual exam. Buyer beware.

Good supplemental reading, but rely on the PMBOK!,

This review is from: CAPM(TM) Certified Associate in Project Management All-in-One Exam Guide (Hardcover)
This book provided some good information and presented some of the stodgy content of the PMBOK in a matter-of-fact approach. I would not rely on this book, however, as it delves into a lot of material not covered on the exam. If you get caught up in the complex formulas in the CAPM guide, you are likely to miss the key 4 or 5 formulas that the CAPM exam actually covers. I passed the exam, although I relied principally on the PMBOK. For an entry-level exam such as the CAPM, the PMBOK is really all you need. For those with little to no PM experience, a couple of supplemental readings such as this one may be helpful. Good luck!
