Nice book, helped me significantly in getting my certification.
Good book. Concise and too the point. One shop for all things related to PMP mathematics. A quick run across it and you wont find it hard to crack mathematical problems on PMP. Few errors here and there but nothing that could degrade the overall experience. Highly recommended.

Perfect - Must have
These questions are perfect for the test (which I have now passed). Granted, some of the math problems in this book were not on the test, it still provided me with enough hands on practice to whip through the math problems in less than 60 seconds.I would highly recommend buying this book and going through every single page of it.

Decent - better than most other PMP Math options
Some of the explanations are a bit confusing and there are some typographical errors, but overall this is a pretty good resource. I am using this towards the end of my study for the PMP and it is helpful in refreshing my memory on hopw some of the calculations are performed. It is better than the other resources I used

PMP Mathematics
I chose PMP Mathematics because it covered only math for the PMP certification exam. I liked it because it allowed me to focus on only the areas I was having trouble. It is easy to use, and the practice questions were easy to follow. It is also an excellent reference to have. I would reccomend it for exam prep and as a reference. Rufus A. PMP.

Good for learning the PMP math portions
I used this book learn the math for the PMP exam. It's simple and easy to follow, but has mistakes. Thanks the source for YouTube. One equation in the book is backwards and I watched a video that taught me the correct way to do it. Plus to be honest I only had two math questions on my exam.

Great product however I can think of some improvements
Great product however I can think of some improvements. There are a couple flaws in the softwre where you provide the correct answer and is shown as wrong or the question does not provide the choices for answer. Need better "control quality" and an update! These are minor quality errors, flaws none the less and I expected more from McGraw Hill, however I found the product helpful and did not find anything similar available and was reasonably priced. Several explanations to solve a particular problem for me, required additional research on youtube so I could grasp, but that's me and math was not my best subject. Again, overall, this was very key and helpful to me

PMP Mathematics
The PMBOK and other books do not have the details needed to get the formulas in order to remember all 15 formulas for the PMP exam. This has step by step instruction on how to figure out the problem and why it matters. Math is not my strong suit so this was extremely helpful. I'm sure I'll sure this book even after the exam -- real life application.

Not a book for PMP Certification
There is a lot of chapters that do not add value to the PMP examination. I picked up the book to do EMV and EVA the week before my exam date for a day and chose not to go back to it. If you want to learn Project selection methods to calculate Present and Future values and other financial terms, please refer to a Financial Accounting book rather than this book.The book is filled with errors. Some of the facts are misleading. I was shocked as I read EMV problems where in a make-buy decision analysis all of the reference is to select the highest value. There are several errors with the schedule network analysis section. Problems are not even close to the exams on Earned Value Analysis.PMI does not test an individual on just applying the values into an algebraic expression formulae. Its tests what you know about Earned Value Analysis definitions and how it is applied(i.e. What is EV, PV, BAC, AC, etc..) Memorizing the formulas is just not enough because you need to understand what the problem is asking you to solve. Just understanding this artifact will help you correctly answer all of the 10 to 15 questions on the exam. I know this cause I passed the examination by referring to the Earned Value Analysis & Risk Management topics from PMI.I would definitely not recommend this book to any one studying for the PMP examination. Just stick with one exam prep book of your choice (Rita Mulcahy) and go with it rather than referring to multiple books.
