I read recently that the most important document to use for prepping for the PMP exam is the ‘Examination Content Outline’. It describes the types of questions you can expect. The exam is split about 50/50 between predictive and agile or hybrid.
Be prepared to answer questions about:
- Managing Conflict
- Leadership
- Empowering Team Members
- Training
- Negotiating Agreements
- Collaboration
- Virtual Teams
- Mentoring
- Emotional Intelligence
- Managing Communications
- Budgeting
- Engaging Stakeholders

- Scheduling
- Quality Management
- Scope Management
- WBS
- Procurement
- Artifacts
- Governance
- Project Issues
- Knowledge Transfer
- Retrospectives
