“iStudy PMP Exam” is an iPhone application helping you getting your PMP certification by practicing simulated PMP exams.

You can use the application is several mode:

With the “Exam” mode you will be running a dummy Exam: you’ll have 4 hours to answer to 200 questions.

Use the “Stress Test” mode you’ll set yourself the number of questions and amount of time allowed for each of the questions.

There is a “Knowledge area” mode if you want to test yourself against a particular Knowledge area.

Finally the “Normal” mode lets you go though all the questions in the applications database, 335 in total…that’s a lot to go through.

As in the real exam you can “mark” questions and review them later, useful if you are not sure about your choice. At the end of the exam the application will display your score and you can review each of the questions’ right answer together with an explanation. If the 335 questions are not enough then you will be able to purchase bundles of 50 questions, through in-app purchase.

Verdict

If you are serious about taking the PMP exam then you will need at some stage in your study to take practice tests, iStudyPMP certainly is a great way to achieve this. I find the “Stress Test” mode and “Exam” mode to be most useful. One small improvement I’d like to see: when finishing an exam before completing all questions then it would be useful to get the report based on the number of questions you answered as opposed to the whole set of questions.

iStudyPMP is available on the App Store for £5.99.
