Reader Reviews From Amazon (Ranked by 'Helpfulness') Average Customer Rating: based on 8 reviews. Less than expected, 2009-05-14 Reviewer rating: Product is not as described. Software is difficult to load with no support available. | Excelent book, 2009-03-04 Reviewer rating: The book is exactly what I need. It is the perfect combination between certification prep and experience to manage Projects in Project 2007.
Furthermore, the book is written with the best practices of PMI.
I really recommend it.
| Don's Review, 2008-12-16 Reviewer rating: The first edition of this book has some errors that are not yet covered by the errata from August.
The book helps a person prepare for the certificate exam, but the practice tests on the included CD are not aligned with the Chapters.
There are good exam tips included, but the flow of the text needs to be reviewed and edited for the perspective of someone learning MS Project in-depth by verifying that the steps for the user to follow are correct. | Great tool but...., 2008-12-11 Reviewer rating: This book is really great if want to get prepared for to the exam. I used it and passed the exam on my first try. The only problem that I exeperienced was that the real exam questions were different than in this book and in the training simulator that comes with the book. First of all there are 55 questions on the exam not 45. Secondly the questions are (or were for me) tougher than these in the book. It is better while preparing for the exam to combine this book with the other set of exam questions (i.e. IT Exams King - which Microsoft recommends on its web site).
| Material good, questions maddening, 2008-10-24 Reviewer rating: This is a well-organized, step-by-step guide to preparing for the exam, but the practice Q&A and the exam simulator need some work. On many questions, the book neglects to tell you how many answers it is looking for, while the actual MCP exams are always very specific (Select one, Select #, Select all that apply). Some of the questions are also poorly worded: "You want to use Project's standard working times for tasks with defined start and finish dates but not defined times. Which two options offer a place where can you [sic] make all the changes?" The word "its" or "the" being omitted prior to "defined times" makes this question confusing if not unintelligible. (Frankly, I didn't notice the "can you" until typing this just now).
The exam simulator, for concentrating on specific objectives, doesn't work well either. The provided objectives don't map directly to the book, so if you want to review the material from a specific chapter, you're out of luck.
A plus is where the book specifically highlights differences between MSP 2007 and 2003, which, as an expert MSP user, is the main reason I selected this book. |
