Summary: Good study guide
Comment: I found this to be a good representation of the material a PMP would need to know. Its not sufficient by itself (you still need to know the PMBoK inside out). This is also a pretty good reference for PMPs after you take the certification test. Most of the sections are pretty good, but I would recommend reading further on professional ethics and spending some time talking to fellow PMPs about professional responsibilities.

Summary: Phillips PMP text book
Comment: With the exception of a single formula error I found this text to be invaluable. I memorized Table 3-1 on pages 106-7 as I found it to be a key matrix for the 9 knowledge Areas and 5 Processes. I also memorized the formula chart on Page 293. Mr. Phillips crowned his text with a CD complete with all pages of the text which greatly aided in the making of flash cards and special notes. I am now studying for the Project+ certification and have purchased his text book for that study. Thanks to you Mr. Phillips for a to-the-point learning aid.

P.S. The formula used by PMI for the PERT 3-point estimate: P+4M+O/6

Summary: Overview
Comment: The sole weakness of this book is the PMP Exam Simulator. The exam simulator provides no references and no feedback as the questions are answered correctly or incorrectly.

Summary: Best PMP Study Book on the Market
Comment: This study guide is very easy to read and it prepares you 100% for the PMP exam. Prior to reading this book, I was in the dark about all that I needed to know to pass the exam. After reading it, passing the exam seemed much more achievable and straightforward.

The practice exams at the end of the chapters give you instant feedback on how prepared you are.

After reading this book and taking the practice tests over and over, you can take your exam with confidence.

Summary: Great Study Guide!
Comment: If you are studying for the PMP exam, you know how boring the PMBOK can be. This book covers all the same material, but it is a much easier read that includes exam tips, two-minute drills, key terms, and tons of sample questions (with answers and explanations). It also gives excellent tips for exam day. The CD includes many more questions and lays them out in the same format you will see come test day.

This book is a must have if your goal is to pass the exam. That is the goal of the book, and it delivers! I passed the exam on my first try, and I never even picked up the PMBOK, this was my only reference.
