92.5% on PMP (185 out of 200)
4 Feb 2005
Format:Paperback
This is an excellent book that covers all aspects of PMP exam. But make sure you read this in conjuction with PMBOK. After reading each PMBOK chapter and I read the corresponding chapter in this book. The author has done a great job in explaining the concepts presented in PMBOK. You don't need any more study materials than these two books. Make sure to do all the practice tests. The practice tests with this book has some very good collection of questions. The questions on the final exam was interestingly on the very similar lines.
Addtion of few subjective questions at the end of each chapter may further help. As a matter of fact, I created a list of subjective questions of my own based on this book that really helped me solidify my concepts and during the last hours before the exam.
My final result 92.5% on PMP (185 out of 200); Here is the break up.
Intitating Project: 94%
Planning the Project: 91%
Executing the Project: 90%
Controlling the project: 93%
Closing the project: 100%
Professional Responsibility: 93%
Thanks

Great study aid to help in studying for the PMP exam!
22 April 2004
Format:Paperback
I limited myself to buying on one study book for the PMP exam (in conjunction with the PMBOK). At a local bookstore I compared this book with Rita Mulcahy's book and several others. I found Joseph Phillips book to be the most to my liking. I was impressed with the "exam tips" that were buried throughout the book to point out important info. I took the PMP exam today and passed on my first try. The format of the exam and the questions on it were very similar to those exam questions in this book and on the free cd. This book helped explain many concepts to me that I felt the PMBOK did an inadequate job of doing. My biggest complaint with the PMBOK is that it doesn't dedicate any time to explaining concepts or stressing their importance.
I would STRONGLY recommend this book to anyone looking for a study aid for the PMP.

Good book
30 Nov 2004
Format:Paperback
I prepared myself for the exam using PMBOK with this study guide (and I completed ESI's PMP Exam Prep course). Reading a chapter in PMBOK, then reading related chapter in this book, then practicing test (from ESI's PMP Exam Prep course material). It worked for me, I succeded on my first try.
This book helps to "interpret" the PMBOK. Well written, easy to read, the exam watch sections are unique. However my opinion is that the practice test questions in the book and on the companion CD are too easy.
