PCI's Online PMP® Practice Exam
PCI Global's Online Project Management Professional (PMP®) Certification Exam is modeled after the Project Management Institutes' (PMI®) certification exam. In terms of difficulty and rigor, the sample exam is like the real thing! Obtaining PMP® certification has become increasingly important in today's marketplace. And the demand for test preparation tools are at an all time high. PCI's Online PMP® Exam is used in conjunction with PCI's Project Management Certification Curriculum (PMCC) - an extensive six module course designed to fully prepare all prospective PMP® candidates for the certification exam. See the PCI Global website for more about PMCC.
Online PMP® Exam Design
The exam database includes a total of 400 multiple-choice questions. Each exam provides 200 randomly selected questions that cover each aspect of the project life-cycle and combine all nine (9) Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBoK® 3rd Edition) areas; Integration Management, Scope Management, Time Management, Cost Management, Quality Management, Human Resource Management, Communications Management, Risk Management and Procurement Management. The sample exam was designed according to PMI®'s "Role Delineation Study" which provides a roadmap for project management roles, responsibilities, knowledge and task proficiency. The "Role Delineation Study" is often referred to as the PMP® Exam "Blueprint" since it outlines the "domains" of essential project management knowledge and the tasks where each would be applied. PCI's sample exam follows this same "blueprint" and contains the same distribution of questions by "domain" as PMI®'s genuine certification exam. See below for how the exam content is distributed:

In addition, PCI's Online PMP® Practice Exam was developed and independently validated by Project Management Professionals (PMP®s).
Fully Documented Explanations
In addition to covering all knowledge areas, PCI's delivery is supplemented by a detailed explanation of each correct answer (and explanations for why the wrong answers don't apply). References throughout the discipline of project management were used in developing each question - it's more than just what's in PMBoK®. Each question includes one or more references that were used in highlighting the learning objective and categorizes each question by "domain" (see above). These useful notations help the student pin-point weaknesses and facilitate further study for greater depth of knowledge and preparation for the actual exam.
Dramatically Improve Test-Taking Performance
Taking practice exams is one of the most effective ways to prepare for PMP® Exam - each question reinforces important test-taking techniques such as "process of elimination", "picking the best answer" and reading into "scenario-based" questions that often underlie the answer. PCI's 200 question multiple-choice Online PMP® Exam is guaranteed to prepare any prospective exam-taker for the real thing!
