Two PMP Study Tips

  1. Task Exercise
    • Handwrite all the tasks under each domain on a notecard, but DO NOT include the Domain or Task Number. 
    • Shuffle, throw the cards in the air, whatever it is, get them out of order them
    • Pick all the cards up
    • Read each one out loud
    • Now on the floor, so you can see the whole “map” you’re creating, organize them back into the proper order, identify the ones you miss 
    • Do this until it is burned into your head and you know all the tasks and enablers relentlessly
  2. Take the PMI’s free exam once you are a PMI member
    • Take their exam all the way through
    • Once complete, for each question, write out the justification of why that answer is correct in the eyes of PMI
    • The goal here is to acquire the PMI mindset and answer the questions the way they see fit, not the way you see fit
    • You will end up with 180 sentences that transcribe the PMI’s truth and can re-wire your brain to think the same and respond to the exam questions accordingly
