6000+ Best Free PMP Certification Exam Sample Questions

Posted by Harwinder on Monday, March 23, 2009 - 19 comments  |  Readability Mode


Practicing lots of sample exam questions is a key to passing the PMP Certification exam. During my preparation (in 2007), I attempted about 3500 questions. I recommend all PMP aspirants to attempt at least 2500 sample questions before they go for the real exam. Here's a list of more than 6000 sample PMP Certification exam questions from more than 50 sources around the web.

Note: Apart from these sources, I still recommend investing in a good commercial exam simulator.

  2. @ Anonymous:

    Thanks for sharing that link.

    I had a quick glance. I saw terms likes "Quality Planning", "Quality Assurance", which tells me that the questions have not been updated for PMBOK Guide, Fourth Edition.

  3. Hey Everyone,

    I was just solving some questions from http://www.tutorialspoint.com/pmp-exams/pmp_mock_exams.htm and either the questions seem convoluted or the answers seem wrong. Is it possible for someone to validate if these questions are representative of the actual PMP exam and also if the quality of the questions are good?

  4. Hi Harwinder,

    I tried few Voight project solutions random 10 questions test and noticed that their references to PMBOK in answers is not correct. Just wondering if these questions are updated for 4th version. Can anyone please validate it?

    Regards,

    Jagjit

  5. Hello Jagjit,

    The Voight Project Solutions exams have been around for several years and it's likely that some (or all) questions have not been updated to the PMBOK Guide, 4th edition. If you don't feel confident about them, just give them a pass. There are many other good sample exams in the list above. I'll try to review the VPS exams again, and if they are not up to date, I'll drop them from the recommended list.

    I'm also keen to know what others think.

    Thanks for bringing it to my notice.

  6. Hi Harwinder,
    I did PM study exams 1 free and 3 paid and scored 86-88% in all the four exams. But i found their questions are pretty easy to answer with the good reading knowledge of PMBOK. In the most of the LL people have stated that PMstudy exams are very close to real exam. Are there any reliable sites like pmstudy

  10. I'm sorry but cexams was not a good link, it had a lot of errors in it, and a lot of the questions were written wrong.

  11. Thanks, Anonymous for your feedback on the exam link. I really want to implement a rating system for each sample exam set, but I'm concerned that it might encourage spammers to promote their own links (by giving them high ratings).

    I invite feedback from all the readers on how to best implement a system that will allow genuine exam aspirants to rate the sample exams and bring the best sets to the top.

    Looking forward to some good feedback.

  14. Hi Harwinder,

    I have couple of doubts in Oliver Lehmann 75 sample questions:
    19 - collocation for global spread virtual team. is it possible?
    22 - was there any dispute at this stage? detailed IA may be required
    23 - Not clear

    Please can you clarify?

  15. Hello Nitin,

    19 - Co-location seems to be the best option among the given options. Whether it's possible is not clear from the question.

    22 - I don't quite agree with the given answer. There is not much indication of a dispute. The change can be handled through a change request if both parties agree. Even though it's a Fixed Price (FP) contract, it can have changes. This is what the PMBOK Guide, Fourth Edition says for FP contracts:

    "Changes in scope can be accommodated, but generally at an increase in contract price."

    23 - The wording seems ambiguous and I have no explanation for the correct answer.

    I encourage other readers to pitch in.

    BR.

  16. As a project manager, you are responsible for managing changes to the project scope. If, at the end of the project, a customer wants a major change in the scope of work, you should:



    Choice 1 Reject the change

    Choice 2 Make the required change

    Choice 3 Escalate the matter to senior management

    Choice 4 Let the customer know about the impact of the change


    Correct Choice : 4

    Justification :


    If there is a major change to the project, the project manager should try to influence the change to minimize the impact on the project. Usually the project manager is advised to do the following:

    1. Evaluate the impact of the change within the team.
    2. Help the customer (or person requesting the change) understand the impact of the change.
    3. If changes are in fact required, then open a change control and get the request approved. Obviously, you will have to inform the management and the change control board about the impact of the changes.
    4. If the change control board approves changes, then make appropriate changes in the project plan.

    Reference: PMstudy.com study notes


    Choice 1 should be appropriate as customer is requested change at the END of the project.
