Book Description

October 22, 2006
Product Description The PMP Exam Success Series: 3rd Ed. PMBOK 3500 Question Exam Simulation CD-ROM is complete with over 3500 questions, 26 different tests including Professional & Social Responsibility, Framework, nine knowledge areas, five process groups and eight complete four hour 200 questions that emulate the PMP Exam environment. The PMP Exam Success Series: Exam Simulation CD-ROM is an exam simulation application that provides you with three different test modes (Simulation, Learning and Flashcard) for 26 different tests. It also allows the opportunity to create your own test formats by selecting what topic areas to include and quantity of questions including the randomization of questions and answers for each test. You can analyze your areas of understanding and strength (or weakness) by taking tests in framework, scope, time, cost, quality, human resources, communication, risk, procurement, integration, professional & social responsibility, initiating, planning, executing, monitoring & controlling and closing. Also included are eight complete 200 question four hour PMP Exam style tests. The exam simulation application provides the opportunity to see how you perform under the pressure of a four hour computerized test environment with the built in timer. The application automatically scores your test and the reporting at the end of the exam shows pass or fail, an overall score and breaks down your score by exam topic area. It also keeps track of your scores over time to track progress. This is perfect for that last minute study time or when you get a few minutes to see where you are at, without having four hours for a full 200 question exam.

3.0 out of 5 stars helpful but you need to do more, January 2, 2007
By 
PK "SS" (Tennessee, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: PMP Exam Success Series: Exam Simultion CD-ROM (3500 questions, 26 tests) (CD-ROM)
I passed the PMP exam in my first attempt recently. I used this software in addition to Rita's software. Although this software is useful and the type of questions, wordings and interface are similar to the actual test but the difficulty level of the questions on Rita's software is closer to the actual test.
Hence, use the questions on this CD to start off and gain some confidence but you must buy Rita's software to make sure you prepare well for the actual test. and obviously you HAVE to read the PMBOK.

1.0 out of 5 stars Bad experience, June 8, 2007
This review is from: PMP Exam Success Series: Exam Simultion CD-ROM (3500 questions, 26 tests) (CD-ROM)
my feedback after buying this software:

pros:
-cheaper than rita's (but still expensive)
-number of questions (BUT WAIT... i'm not sure, read below...)

cons:
-the same questions are repeated again and again (shuffling problems?)
-many questions are very similar (some words like company name are changed)
-a very useful feature is missing: only show unread questions
-software crashes when too many questions (more than 150) are selected. crosswind's technical support advised to select fewer questions)
-software not very user friendly

hope my feedback will help future PMPs, and make the vendor enhance the product.

1.0 out of 5 stars Nothing like the test, May 18, 2007

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: PMP Exam Success Series: Exam Simultion CD-ROM (3500 questions, 26 tests) (CD-ROM)
I studied this almost exclusively and was completely surprised that the test had no questions remotely like this. It is possible that the test has radically changed over time, and if I'd known, this wouldn't have been on my list of study guides. Maybe 6 questions out of 200 on the math (where you didn't have to compute the EV, AC, etc.) -- but had to know how to apply it. Also, lots of questions on inputs into stages and resolving conflict. And much more detailed problems. Fortunately, I passed (I suspect by the skin of my teeth), but not before a lot of panic in the testing room. I feel strongly enough to come back, months after I bought this, to give it this review. If you take the PMP online PMP class, study the chapter questions. However, this won't be nearly enough at 10 questions per chapter -- instead, you'll get an idea as to how the test questions are structured.
