JITEEN’S PERSONAL CHOICE
Disclaimer: Just because these resources worked out for me, does not guarantee they will work for you. Please use your personal decision-making ability to select the most appropriate resources consider the following PMP course comparison:
Udemy course: I started the preparation with this Udemy course. Every day during my commute to office, I would go through this. I NEVER made any notes at this stage as it was to dip my toe.
Rita Mulcahy: I read the Rita Mulcahy book cover to cover. And made notes in parallel. My aim was to read 50 pages every day or 1 knowledge area – whichever comes first. This helped me complete the book with proper knowledge in less than 2 weeks. While I read one knowledge area from Rita Mulcahy, I would then go back to Udemy course to watch again the video for that respective course. It was worth it.
PMBOK: I DID NOT read the PMBOK as I found it boring and dry. However, 95% of the aspirants have read it at least once. For me, it was not worth it so I avoided it – and still managed to clear PMP in first attempt.
Mock Test: I never opted for any paid mock test. I had 6 mock tests by SimpliLearn and I stick to them. Though I did only 2.5 mock tests but I recommend doing at least 5
