Is studying only the PMBOK® Guide enough to clear the PMP® Exam?
Although the PMP® exam is ‘based on or with reference to’ the PMBOK® Guide, it goes way beyond the understanding of only the PMBOK® guide. The questions are designed and created in such a way that it assesses the examinee on multiple domain-based (People, Process, Business) tasks and associated skills in the implementation of the best practices. Hence, the study and thorough understanding of project management skills, interpersonal, leadership skills, along with business strategy skills are essential.

What are pretest questions in PMP® examination?
PMP® examination contains a total of 180 questions out of which 5 questions are pre-test questions. Pre-test questions do not carry any weightage (marks). Having pretest questions is a practice implemented by PMI® to gather statistical information on the validity of the questions and those are deliberated as experimental questions. You never come to know which question is pretest question during the examination or even at the end of the examination. Hence you must treat every question as a weighted (gradable) question.
What is the PMP exam pattern?

After answering, reviewing, and submitting the 60 questions, one can avail a break. Next break is allowed after next 60 questions answering, reviewing submitting.

| People | 42% |
| Process | 50% |
| Business Environment |
8% |
These questions are mapped against the PMP Examination Content Outline to ensure that an appropriate number of questions are in place for a valid examination.
PMP certification will be reflective of this and will incorporate approaches across the value delivery spectrum. About half of the examination will represent predictive project management approaches and the other half will represent agile or hybrid approaches. Predictive, agile, and hybrid approaches will be found throughout the three domain-areas listed above and are not isolated to any particular domain or task.
What are the terms ‘Domain’, ‘Tasks’ & ‘Enablers’?
PMI® has conducted the Role Delineation Study (RDS) and has defined these terms as follows:
Domain: High-level knowledge area that is essential to the practice of project management.
Tasks: The underlying responsibilities of the project manager within each domain area.
Enablers: Illustrative examples of the work associated with the task. These should not be an exhaustive list but rather offer a few examples to help demonstrate what the task encompasses.
