project management
• Till you obtain your PMP certification, you will see the
world of Project Management through “PMBOK 5th
Edition”.
• Never forget the first two rules
• Always look for best fit answer

How to pass the Exam?
• Easy:Easy questions can be answered
right away: all others may be skipped
and mentally classified as “recall”,
“deduct”, or “compute” challenges.
• Recall: Recall questions test your
ability to memorize definitions so you
can select the correct answer in
accordance with the definition in
PMBOK V5

• Deduct: Deduct questions test your ability to
rationalize the selection of the correct answer,
such as in a context of ethics, for example.
You will be given a situation to interpret and to
rationalize which of 4 answers best covers the
situation in the question
• Compute:Compute questions can be time-
consuming, yet are no more valuable than easy
questions. As for deduct questions, postpone
the “poser questions” until later in the test: you
can easily get lost in the complexity of the
questions and lose track of time.

these questions in order to determine whether they may be used on
future examinations. These 25 pretest items are included in the
200-question examination, but will not be included in the pass/fail
determination; candidates will be scored on 175 questions
• To pass the PMP examination, candidates must answer a minimum
of 106 of the 175 scored questions correctly (i.e. approximately 61%
