• process flow chart [understand & be able to draw]
• outputs by process groups [memorize them with their processes]
• project document descriptions [memorize them & what process they belong to] ⇒ flash cards with definitions & process along with document name

Study tips

• 6-20 hours per week of study time → need to study 60-100 times. try to study every day
• Read the PMBOK at least once
• the day before the exam → review formulas and process table
• during exam, → write down formulas in the first 5 minutes [16 formulas] as well as a process chart
• first - means u have to prioritize, when it says best means all are good, but choose them wisely
• drag and drop can include answers that don’t belong anywhere
• drag & drop can include processes into process groups
• drag & drop can be ranking, linking process to process groups, linking outputs to process groups, ordering & organizing different theories & hierarchies & their motivations, linking approaches, different diagrams to their tools & processes

Most PMP questions align with a logical process flow:

1. Identify the Problem:
   • What is happening? Which process group is this in?
2. Evaluate the Impact:
   • How does this affect scope, schedule, cost, quality, or other constraints?
3. Take Action or Escalate:
   • Can the PM handle this, or is escalation required?
4. Document the Outcome:
   • Ensure that decisions and results are formally documented.
