Hot Topics Flashcards for Passing the PMP and CAPM Exams (Audio Version)(5th Edition)

The answers on the back are really poor at answering the questions on the front; they just lead one to ask more questions. You never get the oh yeah, I knew that. If you've read and reviewed, "The PMP Exam: How to Pass On Your First Try" (I'd say 4-5 times) and taken a couple practice tests, you shouldn't need anything else. Especially not these note cards. Just one guys opinion. I did passed the first time with this strategy, but that's no guarantee.

This was great purchase for me. I'm able to listen to at work as I prepare for the exam. Worth the money.

this is a great product for when you are in the car. I drive about 35 minutes to work and it I'm able to review two chapters during that drive. Rita gives you a great suggestions on what you need to focus on. I also have her printed flash cards but I don't use them much. This is a much better resource if you commute to work.

I found this book very helpful to pass my PMP, I completed all the excercises in the book and read this book thoroughly.
I did a lot of other online research and readings as well including Villanova PMP prep materials but this book primarily was what i completely relied on.
Honestly i did not even read the PMBOK. ;-) don't tell anyone ... and i don't recommend you do that ..

While the PMBOK is a necessary and important resource for PM knowledge, it can be fairly cryptic at times. Additionally, it can sometimes be challenging to apply it to your particular industry due to its well-intended obtuse tone.

Rita uses her insight and years of experience to answer all of those little questions that came up while reading the PMBOK. She cuts to the chase and give you real-world examples that you can apply right away.

Highly recommended for any current or aspiring project manager.
