How to Study the PMBOK® 7th Edition | PMP (In-Depth Review of Principles in 15 Minutes)

[@GeodeLaVillette]

Max, I followed your study guide and prepared the PMP exam in 4 weeks, I passed it with all ATs today. Thanks a lot !

[@themaxmao]

Congrats!! Glad the guide helped

When you say you followed his study guide are you talking about this video and the 6th edition video?

[@GeodeLaVillette]

@@90daydifference No, I used this video as reference. I read the Rita Mulcahy PMP book (the "Bible"), the PMBOK 7th edition (as a reference to integrate the Rita book), and "Becoming a PMP Certified Professional" by Packt Publishing for a final review. It helped that I've been working as PM for 15+ years and being a fast reader (700 words per minute), so I zoomed through all the books before focusing on the chapters where I had gaps. Hope it helps. BTW: now I'm preparing the PgM exam, and that's another beast.

hi, i'm going to try out the study hall, was the practise exam questions realistic to the exam questions (consists of 15 questions each) then go for the study hall mock final exam a good to go?

Max, this is phenomenal. Have you covered the 6th edition process mapping workflow in a video? If not, can you? That would be the best!

@@themaxmao you're the best!

Helpful explanation and real-life examples of the content from the 7th edition PMBOK! Please make another video going over the process mapping for the 6th edition. Thank you!!

[@themaxmao]

Glad you found the video helpful, planning to do a full review of the PMBOK 6th edition soon

[@bobslave7063]

Thanks for sharing knowledge in such a simple way! Pls, keep up the job.

[@themaxmao]

Dropping another gem tomorrow - stay tuned!

[@nassernader9185]

Max, did you memorize all the formulas for the plan cost management for the exam?

[@themaxmao]

i learned the basics, would recommend you understand all the cost & schedule equations

[@patwong6]

Hi Max, do you recommend purchasing both the PMBOK study guide 6th and 7th edition or is going off your study guide and practicing exam questions sufficient? Thanks

[@themaxmao]

Hey Pat - IMO the PMBOK has a lot of good info, but it’s more extensive than what’s on the exam. The videos I created explaining the 6th & 7th edition should be sufficient with proper exam question prep. Goodluck!

[@vitalinagaburak8415]

Great video and work! Thanks!!!

[@themaxmao]

Glad it helped!!

[@jdabramson]

Thanks Max. I'm using your guide.

[@themaxmao]

Great - hope it helps Joshua!

Awesome staff, man, btw, what's your background? Can a Marketer do this even though a marketer is half a PM managing all the time, but do you need to be analytical to pass? I've got BA in Bus Admin with major on Marketing. Keep it up

[@themaxmao]

My work experience is in PM (tech industry). You can def develop PM skills from other industries (marketing, etc.). The exam is just like another standardized test, I just created a guide to make it as easy to follow as possible. Thanks for the support!
