PMP Exam Cram 2 (2nd Edition) (ISBN 0789734621)

Categories:


Too many typos and factual mistakes:
This book is okay for a secondary (or tertiary) review tool, but only if you've done your real studying with a better study guide, such as PMP In Depth by Paul Sanghera. Exam Cram 2 (2nd edition) has enough factual mistakes (such as referring to "the five knowledge areas" of "initiating, planning, executing, controlling, and closing," when these are actually process groups, and there are nine, not five knowledge areas) that I don't completely trust the other information I'm reading. Another example is that this book sometimes uses the terms "process tool" and "process input" interchangeably, although they are completely different concepts under PMI. And one potential answer to a test question about Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs was "self acquisition," which I think was a spellchecker's attempt to correct a misspelled "self actualization."


Useless ebook:
I've downloaded the ebook only to find out that you can only print 20 pages each time within 30 days. So it will take more that 15 months to print this 304 pages book. I check the amazon description before purchasing - it says the ebook was printable ... It's shear cheating and I demand my money back!!!


Full of errors - find another guide:
This book is simply horrible. I can forgive the occasional typo or poorly worded sentence, but there are multiple parts of this book that are inaccurate. I guess in a way it helped me study because I would read something and then say "um... that sounds wrong" and look it up online or in the PMBOK and find that it was wrong - so all the extra research correcting its errors helped. The publisher should be ashamed.


Must have:
If you plan to take the PMP exam, this one of the books that will help you. It was one of two books I used to pass the exam in 2005 (did not study the PMBOK) and it prepare you for the exam ... it focus on passing the exam
