Why buy Rita if you have the PMBOK Guide to study from?

When I found out my company required me to get certified as a PM, I panicked! I already had the PMBOK and I thought I'd just have to memorize all those processes with their inputs and outputs and the process groups and knowledge areas. Then one of my colleagues mentioned Rita's book as a book...

I Liked this book but it could be better

what I liked about this book is that it is pmp-exam focused. This book puts you closer to the exam environment. As an assistant to PMBOK guide, I think it is one of the best books in the market. However, I found this edition closer to PMBOK 3rd edition more than PMBOK 4th edition. Moreover,...

So far so good...

I bought this book two weeks back and so far I have completed 2 chapters. Based on the time I've spent and read this book I think it is really good. Obviously, I need to spend more time, but, so far so good.

Smooth trade; Received item on quickly. However, why the CD missing?

The description on the product is not so correct. It's saying the book is like a new. However, I found it should be around 80% new only. Also, CD missing from the book was also not mentioned.

Good once you get passed all the self-promotion

This book is very good, but you first have to wade through pages of the author telling you how wonderful the book is and how you should buy all of her other wonderful products. I don't mind promoting your other work at the end of a book, but it is offensive after having spent $65+ on this book to...

Great Book

I started my study process with this book and got frustrated with enormous amount of details and memorization needed since the very beginning. Then I purchased Andy Crowe's book and read it cover to cover twice. I was thinking on taking the test when I decided to try Rita's book again. That...

pmp-review

the disappointing part of this book is the dull and boring tone of the text. with respect to the exam this book is good and gives quite a good context. i did not find the rita's process chart to be very helpful, instead pmbok was much simpler to follow. In terms of coverage and clarity and...

Must Have For The PMP Exam

Although the exam will change July 1st and you'll have to purchase Rita's new study guide for the 4th Edition PMBOK, I found the 5th Edition vital to passing the current exam. I passed yesterday by reading her book 3 times and reviewing as needed. The book has a very "tough love" philosophy...
