I've been using this book with my PMP® and CAPM® students for several years now, and they all agree it is great - much better than another study guide that is perhaps better known. This new edition, aligned with the 5th edition of the PMBOK®, is even better.For folks preparing for PMI's PMP® exam, Crosswind's study guide does several critical things: first, it explains the material found in the PMBOK® Guide with enough context to enable much better comprehension. Second, it includes the additional material that you need to know for the PMP® exam that is simply not covered in the PMBOK®. Third, it does all this in a clear, thorough way without excessive verbiage. Finally, it has 30 practice questions at the end of each chapter which are representative of what you can expect to see on the actual exam. The questions were good before, but they are even better now, in the 5th edition. They are one of the most valuable things about this book. Be sure to work through all of them.You will want to study the PMBOK® Guide itself, also. You are likely to see questions on the test where the word-for-word language found in the PMBOK® Guide needs to be recognized.Crosswind's Bootcamp Manual is the cat's meow. I recommend it to all my students. If you are trying to pass the PMP® exam, I recommend it to you too.Bill B.
The study guide itself is good. The test interface/software is really terrible. When you take the practice tests, there's no way to see a list of the questions you got right and wrong - you have to go through each individually to find the ones you missed, with the explanation. You can't test on specific chapters or knowledge areas. I guess that if you buy the exam set separately it might be better? I don't know - I'm not willing to spend that much money to find out, and I can't easily tell if what came with the book is the same thing or something more.It's inexpensive compared to some of the competition, that's true, but very annoying to struggle with the software. The study guide is good, though - I like the layout and the coverage of the material. Maybe use this book and someone else's question software.
I can tell you that this was the best decision I have made during my PMP Prep. This book makes it a lot easier to deal with PMBOK and the questions are of top notch quality - the closest to the ones I saw during my exam. A must have for anyone preparing for PMP.
For me, the best material to prepare PMP exam!!! I know "Crosswind" since 10 years ago and I used to prepare project managers in the PMP exam, and always I found that is the most complete in the market!!Edna
The Kansas City PMI chapter uses this for the PMP exam prep Study Group. Now that I am teaching the prep classes myself, I find Crosswind indespensible.
Ended up using more as a resource than reading but was helpful
I like the book, it helped to pass the PMP exam.
Our study group loves it
