If you have basic questions related to the PMP exam then you have come to the right place.

The Project Management Institute was founded in 1969. The goal of PMI is continuous growth and development of the discipline of Project Management. PMI started the PMP exam in 1984. PMI has chapters all across the globe. These chapters provide extensive help in preparing for the exam. PMI offers four types of services/products. These are Project Management certification, Project Management Research and Standards, Project Management Professional Development programs, and Project Management publications.

The certificate requires that you have at least 4500 hours of experience in Project Management. Also the candidate should have attended at least 35 hours of class room training on Project Management. PMI explains the eligibility criteria in detail in the PMP certification handbook.

If you meet these criteria, then you can file the application from PMIs site Certification section . You also have to submit the application fees when you submit the application. After you have submitted the application, PMI will review your application. If everything goes smoothly, in a few days you will receive an acceptance letter/e-mail from PMI. After this you can schedule the exam by visiting Prometric Center.

PMI offers now six different exams related to the discipline of Project Management. These are -

1. PgMP: Program Management Professional
2. PMP: Project Management Professional
3. CAPM: Certified Associate Project Manager
4. PMI-SP: PMI Scheduling Professional
5. PMI-RMP: PMI Risk Management Professional
6. PMI-ACP: Agile Certified Professional

Among these PMP certification is most popular. This site focuses on PMP certification. PMI provides a handbook for each of these exams.

The PMP exam is a computer based exam conducted in the Prometric centers. The exam has 200 multiple choice questions. Each question has exactly one correct answer. You will get four hours to answer these questions. Most people find four hours to be more than sufficient for the exam. Out of these 200 questions, 25 questions are pretest questions. These are randomly places through out the exam and are used for research purposes. These questions are not evaluated while computing exam results. You will only be evaluated on the basis of 175 questions.
To pass the PMP examination, you must answer a minimum of 106 of the 175 scored questions correctly. After you finish and submit the exam, in the Prometric center you will immediately receive the overall mark-sheet for the exam in the Prometric center.

There is no negative marking in the exam. Unanswered questions are treated as wrong questions. Exam is preceded by 15-minute computer tutorial on the format of the exam.
After clearing the exam, you will receive the PMP certificate by mail after 2 months. Examination scores are confidential. About 80% candidates clear the exam.

The PMP exam is based on PMBOK 5th edition. The PMBOK 5th edition was launched in January, 2013. The PMBOK 6th edition will be published in October, 2017.
Exam results are divided in six areas. There are no minimum marks in separate areas. There are now 14 knowledge areas in which to be proficient.

You can view your PMP credential status at PMP application status. You can also view certification status of other individuals at PMP registry.

The two important tips that I suggest are -

• Sleep well the night before the exam.
• After you enter the exam room, spend the first five to ten minutes to write down some key notes on the rough sheet, before starting the exam. This will be like a brain dump of what you have memorized. These notes can include Earned Value Management (EVM) and other formulae, list of processes and their inputs, outputs, and tools and techniques. Later in the exam, these notes will act as a good reference for you.

The program is mainly based on the PMBOK. PMBOK stands for Project Management Book of Knowledge. When you become a member of PMI, you get the PMBOK on a CD. PMBOK is very short and concise. Most people find it a bit difficult to read. The current exam is based on the fourth edition of PMBOK.
The approach that we suggest is the following:

1. Read the PMBOK
2. Read EdWel's Free PMP Textbook.
3. Read the tutorial on PreparePM
4. Take a few mock exams.
5. Revise the sections of the books and PMBOK on which you are not scoring well.
6. When you start scoring above 80% in the mock exams, you are ready to visit a Prometric center for the exam.

As an additional note, for many students, text-based learning can be extremely difficult and/or time-consuming. To fast track the process, we recommend taking a classroom-based preparation course, like the one we offer (see sidebar for details).

The amount of time it will take you to prepare for the PMP certification exam will depend on how much experience you have as a project manager, how familiar are you with PMI's terminology, which book you use to prepare etc. Because the exam is expensive, you should spend enough time so that you feel comfortable. I think you should plan to spend four to eight weeks spending one to two hours per day before you take the exam.

Opinions vary on this one. The most important thing is to understand the meaning and concepts related to all the inputs, tools and techniques, and outputs. You do not have to memorize the inputs, tools and techniques, and outputs for all the processes to clear the exam. You may get few questions that directly ask the inputs, tools and techniques, and outputs for a process. So if you can memorize a few key ones that will be helpful too.

More and more Project Management related jobs in today's world require PMP certification. Getting PMP certification is not a guarantee for a successful job search. But it can help you get those elusive interview calls. In today's competitive job market if you are looking for a Project Managers position, then getting PMP certified can significantly increase your chances of getting a job. Also many organizations use the terminology and tools that you will learn as part of PMP certification. The certification will certainly help you do your job better.
