Practice, Practice, Practice - is the Key!
If there is one phase that you must NOT skip, it is this one.
Would you board a plane knowing that the pilot only has a theoretical knowledge of how to fly a jet?
Would you agree to go under the knife knowing that the surgeon only read a few books on how to do surgery?
No, of course not.
You would choose a pilot or a surgeon with practical experience.
The same principle applies to your PMP exam:
You should not attempt to take the exam without first having some practical experience of what the questions will be like.
Now it’s time to start taking the quizzes and exams of the simulator, where questions are not tied to a specific task but rather cover the broader spectrum of Domains and Knowledge Areas.
You do still not have a PMP Exam Simulator at your hand? Well, then, now is the time to get one. Invest in your career! It will pay off a thousand times, promised.
Of course, you can try to manage this practice with free sample questions and mock exams. But a professional PMP Exam Simulator is like your swizz knife to handle your practicing. As you already know, our #1 recommendation is the PM Exam Simulator by Cornelius Fichtner. A $149 is affordable, and you get soooo much value for your money.
(watch out at www.projectmanagement.plus for regular discounts!).
The PMP Exam Simulator consists of two question pools: the Quiz pool and the Exam pool. The Quiz pool consists of over 1,200 questions. The Exam pool consists of 930 questions organized into 4 full length, 180-question exams and one 210-question ITTO exam.
This section assumes that you are familiar with how to use the PM Exam Simulator.

After you have completed the learning content-wise, the next step is to assess your knowledge.
Taking a few short random quizzes is the best way to accomplish this task. Your results will show you how familiar you are with the ECO Domains and/or PMBOK®Guide Knowledge Areas.
Taking random quizzes partially simulates the real exam experience for you because you will not know the topic of the question presented to you.
In the next lesson, we will give you a step-by-step guide on how to utilize your PMP Exam Simulator and get the maximum out of it ...
