How to prepare for PMP exam based on PMBOK 5! – Part-2

Hello Friends,


This post is Part-2 of the series of posts – How to prepare for PMP exam based on PMBOK 5!

Click here for Part-1.


In Part-1, we looked into following points-


1. Pre-requisites – Things you must be prepared for before you head towards PMP direction
2. Study Resources – Books and other resources I found most useful
3. Study Plan – Strategic steps, resources and tips for preparation and clear the exam!!


In this part (Part-2) of this post we will discuss more about the content, topics and areas that are most important and preparation strategy for the exam!!


Alright! I’ll start with a very important point I’ve observed and might be quite helpful for you as well.













Look at the above table. Have you noticed that-


23 processes (in green) have 76% weightage in the exam and
24 processes (in orange) have only 24% weightage.


So, by preparing 23 processes, you can cover 76% of the exam!! 🙂



Needless to say that mastering 23 processes with all ITTOs is much easier then mastering all 47 🙂



How about that?
