1.0 out of 5 stars Out of date., April 24, 2006

This review is from: PMP Practice Questions Exam Cram 2 (Paperback)

Unless you would like to spend time studying for a version of the PMP exam that PMI no longer administers, stay away from this book (Practice Questions). I will verify what a few others have stated concerning the poor quality of the questions and the ironically spotty quality control in the product, but most relevant to my mind is that it deals with (some) topics that are no longer dealt with in the 3rd edition of the PMBOK. There are much better practice question options out there, but you may have to pay a little more for them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Good Resource for PMP Exam, June 2, 2005

This review is from: PMP Practice Questions Exam Cram 2 (Paperback)

I don't do this often, but the one poor review about this book is a complete surprise to me. I found the book to be a very good resource and it provided the information necessary for me to pass the exam. I particularly liked The PMP Cram Sheet. The CD worked fine for me. I liked the writing style and the concise structure of the text.

I looked at several other books and found the Exam Cram 2 to be a very efficient and effective way for me to study for the exam. In my estimation the best method to study for this exam is to review test questions. This book provides representative test questions and enough supporting information concerning the correct answer that an experienced project manager can easily reconcile why his original choice was incorrect. In my circle, many PMPs agree that this book is an excellent exam resource.

2.0 out of 5 stars Bad and Confusing Questions - Avoid this book, March 16, 2005

This review is from: PMP Practice Questions Exam Cram 2 (Paperback)

Here are the list of problems with this book

1. Very confusing and ambiguous questions

2. Some of the answers are plain wrong

3. The CD based testing software is defective. I specifically found

- The time keeping piece doesn't work on Windows XP for customized tests

- The answers on some questions were mixed up

Overall, I would definitely not recommend this book to anyone who is serious about the PMP exam. There are several other soures that I found, that have better questions and which are less confusing/more in line with the PMP exam questions
