Great Study Tool Jan 16, 2006
By T. Gibbs
When I saw this book, I wasn't quite sure about it but figured I would try it. I used it to prepare for my CAPM exam and found it to be an invaluable tool to test my knowledge of the PMBOK. Using this guide in conjunction with reading the PMBOK really helped ensure my success on the CAPM exam. I have since recommended it to others as part of their study.

 Not for PMP Feb 21, 2007
By F. Barrancos
"PMP"
Be warned that it doesn't contain the same type of situational questions that you will find in the PMP test. While these simple questions about concepts in the PMBOK might help you to practice for the CAPM test, the author doesn't even claim that the book will help you prepare for any test.
I bought this little book because I wanted to practice a little more, and because it was on sale. I finished it in less than two hours and never touched it again. A 100% success rate with these easy questions doesn't mean that you are prepared to pass the PMP test.

Execellent Resource Jul 08, 2007
By Chad Shea
This is an excellent resource that will help you understand and review several concepts in the PMBOK Guide. The only problem is that the answers provide quotes from the PMBOK Guide and no explanations. The questions are simplistic: may be good for the CAPM exam, but not for the PMP exam.
To prepare for the PMP Exam, I used the PMP Exam Quicklet by Paul Sanghera, which contains very realistic questions.

 Nothing Better Than The Source! Jan 09, 2007
By Hendrix Moore
I started off taking the classes to get my 23 credits to qualify for the CAPM exam. After I finished the schooling and started taking practice test I found I wasn't getting enough of the answers right. The second thing I did was order the Aileen exam prep guide and some flashcards but I ran into the same problem as before lol.
I always heard that the PMBOK is so hard to understand etc. When I actually took the time to read it for myself I found it informative. It's not something you read in a sitting but it's not impassible. I was reading a little each day and as of this writing on the last the chapter of the book.
Buying test prep materials is tricky because some authors give you their watered down version of the PMBOK but when the test comes they are testing on the words phases and process from the PMBOK not someone else's rendition of the book.
It's worth the investment. You can finish it in a month there are only 12 chapters. I recommend you do nothing but read the book first. Second take the classes/training. Third order a test prep book and flash cards.

Reading this book on Kindle Aug 01, 2011
By SAIFUR RAHMAN
In summary, its a nightmare. Its not the book's fault, rather than the media. Here is how it works -
You answer questions from the book
Now you need to scroll to the answer to verify if they are correct (Scroll/Search/TOC - tedious)
When you get to the answer, you will notice that the questions are not part of the answer
So now you need to go back to refresh your memory on what the question was (again scroll/search/TOC)
You need to do this for over and over again
Again, its a good book but buy the hard copy not the kindle format.
