PMP Exam Preparation experience, seek common ground while reserving differences, and successfully pass the exam

One 、 Prepare for the online training course

The preview is divided into two parts .

First , Watch the video of previous courses . no need 100% understand , Just listen carefully , It's best to try to do the corresponding exercises after class , You don't have to worry about the accuracy when doing questions . Search for relevant knowledge through other online channels , Mark the content that is really incomprehensible , In order to focus on listening later .

Two 、 Watch the video carefully

Although the teacher recommended that we watch the live course on time and on time , But limited by overtime 、 Travel or network reasons , Most of my courses are videos I watch . The disadvantage of watching the video is that you can't talk to the teacher in time 、 Students interact together , But I think watching the video is quite suitable for me . Because I personally like to take notes while listening to classes , I can pause at any time when watching the recording , I can step back at any time if I don't understand .

3、 ... and 、 Avoid superficial questions

Simulated exercises are arranged before the exam , Some people may pursue the speed of doing questions , Or pursue to do more questions , Blindly accelerate the speed of doing questions . But I don't recommend that , I choose to do the question seriously , Read the questions carefully 、 In depth understanding of , Whether you do it right or not, check the problem analysis , In this way, we can better achieve the purpose of writing questions . Respect every problem , Avoid superficial questions .

Four 、 Read the training materials twice after brushing the questions

Doing exercises is the best test of our mastery of knowledge , We will also find our weaknesses and deficiencies in the process of doing questions . At this time, you should brake in time after finishing twoorthree sets of questions , stop , Look back and read the training materials carefully again , In order to reorganize and supplement the knowledge system in the brain . Then continue to brush questions , My personal experience is that the correct rate of questions is from 60～65% Immediately improved to 75～80%.

5、 ... and 、PMI Coupling of ideas and practical work experience

Many people think that PMBOK Our knowledge system is far from the actual work , They are also trying to urge themselves to cut off the connection with actual work , structure PMI thinking . People with project management experience are learning PMBOK Knowledge is still helpful , For example, the earned value management mentioned in the book , The translation I encountered in my previous actual work is earned value management , It is consistent in theory . Another example ROI、NPV、IRR The calculation of such indicators will also be encountered in practical work , At the same time, I also studied in the engineering economics course of the University . In addition, the matrix management of projects is widely used in our large engineering companies , And the concepts of procurement management will also be involved in practical work . therefore , I personally think it is feasible to couple some project management knowledge with actual work , It is also conducive to better understanding and learning , Not to violate PMI The idea and original intention of .
