Review of the free PMP Headfirst exam
The exam that the head first folks have put out is quite nice. The questions are a nicely put though a little on the easy side I thought. Maybe because I am used to Rita Mulcahy's hard questions.
There were a couple of questions that were wrong. By wrong I mean, they clashed with what the PMBOK says. For example, the scope management process, according the PMBOK, its scope management planning, scope definition, create WBS, scope verification and scope control. That is the way that it is laid out in the PMBOK. But according to the head first guys it should be scope management planning, scope definition, create WBS, scope control and scope verification. Well, I assume that PMBOK is right. There was another question that was of the same nature. Overall, I think 4-5 questions were either wrong or they did not make sense. But, I am not a PMP so my opinion could be wrong.
Overall, I would recommend taking the exam, one, coz its free and two, coz its very good. I would rate this exam over the Whizlabs exam. Also, do grab the Head First PMP book, it would not be a waste of your time. It make learning the PMP fun. Keep this as a second book that you should read in the tail end of your preparation.
