MASTER CAPM MATH FROM EARNED VALUE MANAGEMENT TO THE CRITICAL PATH METHOD!Written
by a best-selling author, this guide covers all the math-based concepts and formulas you will encounter in the CAPM exam, simplifying even the most challenging topics so you can confidently tackle every math-based question and effectively apply this knowledge in your future projects. While many project management professionals are “mah people,”for many others, math can be the greatest challenge when preparing for the CAPM exam. Moreover, there are numerous math-based methods and techniques that even the most experienced project managers haven't heard of but which may be featured in the exam. This resource serves as your complete math guide for CAPM exam success.(Note: This book's content is fully included in the CAPM Exam Prep: Complete Study Guide by the same author, as it is an all-in-one resource for the CAPM exam.)Covers All Math-Based Concepts for Predictive and Agile ApproachesSimplifies Even the Most Challenging CAPM Math TopicsFeatures Extensive Exercises and Practice QuestionsIncludes Ultimate Tips for Exam SuccessThe exam questions are based on predictive, agile, and hybrid project management approaches. There is no chance of passing the exam if you are experienced in only one project management approach, which is the case for most test-takers. This means that mastering only the critical path method (which is widely used for predictive projects) will not be sufficient if you haven’theard of velocity (an agile term), and vice versa. For this reason, this book describes all math-based concepts and formulas for both predictive and agile approaches in great detail, step by step, assuming you have zero prior knowledge of any of them.Most questions on the exam are scenario-based. They present you with various project management situations and ask you what a project management professional should do. To pass the exam, you need to know how to effectively apply project management principles and concepts to real-world scenarios. Therefore, memorizing the exam content will not work, as you will not gain the knowledge required to apply that piece of information to a real-life scenario.In this guide, all the math-based topics (including the ones that most candidates find more challenging, such as the critical path method and earned value analysis) are demonstrated from scratch to ensure candidates with no prior experience can understand the logic and reasoning behind them. This approach enables candidates to learn rather than memorize the essential information for the exam.The book also features Ultimate Tips for Exam Success sections throughout all chapters presenting exam tips that pinpoint the types of math questions you should expect on the exam, key points you need to know, and challenges you may encounter. Upon completion of the book, these sections will also enable you to easily review key points for the
