PMP Study Guide Overview

The Missing Single Source Needed to Pass the PMP® Exam on Your First Try! — 600+ Pages of Complete Coverage

Written to produce the missing single source that completely covers the exam scope, the PMP® Exam Prep: Complete Study Guide offers the most extensive coverage of the PMP exam on the market (600+ pages) and is designed to be the ONLY SOURCE a candidate needs to pass the exam. Written by best-selling author A. Togay Koralturk, a globally recognized educator whose books are taught at top U.S. universities, this game-changing PMP exam prep guide simplifies even the most challenging topics and helps the reader learn (rather than memorize) the essential information for the exam. This approach equips candidates to successfully pass the PMP exam on the first try and effectively apply this knowledge to real-life projects.

  • Aligned with the PMBOK® Guide – Seventh Edition and the latest PMP Examination Content Outline—every section of the book is mapped to both
  • Includes a one-month free subscription to the PMP Fast Forward e-learning course, a crash review course that provides the 35 contact hours and certificate of completion required by PMI® to sit for the PMP exam
  • Covers agile, predictive, and hybrid approaches
  • Includes 1,500+ realistic practice questions with detailed answer explanations (360 in the book + 1,200+ in the e-learning course)
  • Features nearly 1,000 ultimate tips for exam success

The PMP exam includes predictive, agile, and hybrid project management approaches. There is no chance of passing the exam if you are experienced in only one approach, which is the case for most test-takers. Therefore, this guide teaches all approaches and exam topics in great detail and is aligned with the PMBOK® Guide – Seventh Edition and the latest PMI PMP Examination Content Outline.

As project management practices have undergone dramatic changes in the last decade, PMI introduced a radical transformation in its standards as well as the PMP exam content, which is no longer structured around the PMI’s Process Groups model. Therefore, this book is not an update from a previous edition. Instead, it has been written from scratch to reflect this significant transformation, as it would not be feasible to create a guide that properly addresses this crucial shift in project management practices otherwise.

The book features Ultimate Tips for Exam Success sections throughout all chapters presenting nearly 1,000 exam tips that pinpoint the types of questions you should expect on the exam, key points you need to know, and challenges you may encounter. Upon completion of the book, these sections will also enable you to easily review key points for the exam and eliminate the need to read the book multiple times.

Includes PMP Fast Forward E-Learning Course

This book features a one-month free subscription to the PMP Fast Forward e-learning course, designed to complement the book with interactive learning. This crash review course includes over 400 engaging video lectures and 1,200+ realistic practice questions—including five full-length practice exams with detailed answer explanations—and is designed to guarantee first-time exam success. The course offers targeted review and ample practice and provides the 35 contact hours and certificate of completion required by PMI® to sit for the PMP exam.

"This book transformed the way I studied for the PMP exam. I’ve used other prep books before, but none came close to this level of clarity and organization. Each topic builds naturally on the previous one, and the language is refreshingly straightforward. The author explains the reasoning behind PMI’s way of project management, not just what to memorize, which helped me truly internalize the material and pass my exam above target."

"I've passed my exam above target and I only used this book as my study material. This book is by far the most comprehensive and thoughtfully written resource I’ve ever used. It’s not just a book full of facts, it’s a complete roadmap that explains the why behind every concept. The author manages to take complex PMP topics and break them into logical, easy to understand sections. What stood out to me most is how well the book connects theory to real-world project management. The explanations are crystal clear and the examples are relatable. I walked away not only as a PMP but also as a more capable project manager."
