The structure of the test questions and the difficulty of the test
The first subject in the afternoon is case analysis, which is generally considered to be an easier subject to pass. I basically agree with this. I scored 50 points in the first test, and in the second test, although I capsized in the gutter on the first major topic , but I also got 51 points, and I didn't spend a lot of time preparing, so it's really not difficult. Because the test content of this test is relatively stable, and it is easy to grasp the rules.
2. Exam Content and Exam Method
The case analysis is basically carried out in the nine major managements of project management, including the whole, scope, progress, cost, quality, manpower, communication, risk, and procurement. It's not big, so we just need to prepare for these nine managements. Here is a test-taking strategy that I introduced:
1. After completing the first stage of review, you should have a general understanding of the content of the entire book and some professional terms of the nine major management of project management. , then at this time, you can go to the case analysis guide that I introduced earlier, and look at some answering modes and methods.
2. When you look at various question types, you find that case analysis is actually very rule-based. First of all, the content of the test questions is fixed, so we only need to focus on the knowledge areas of nine major project management. Secondly, the way of asking questions is basically similar, such as giving you a case (usually describing a series of things and work done by a project manager after receiving a project), and then asking you what is wrong with the case, What is the cause of the problem? If it were you, what should you do? Or ask you directly, what should the management process of XX be like?
The questions at that time were simpler than now, because the title of the question already told you what he was taking the test (..., from the perspective of overall project management and configuration management,...), but now it is not so It's easy, you need to judge for yourself what knowledge points it involves in a certain topic, such as a question in 2009:
3. When many people answer these questions, the more they write, the better, and a lot of slobber and nonsense are actually not meaningful. Although they do not deduct points, they basically do a lot of useless work. Be sure to get to the point when answering the question. To get a high score on this, you must first analyze the test sites of the test questions, and then answer the questions according to the test sites and questions. Try to use professional terminology and describe points and lines. In addition, you must keep the surface of the paper clean and neat in handwriting, so that the grading teacher will definitely Impressed by you.
4. In addition to some subjective analysis, the mastery of some calculation formulas and graphs will also be examined, such as the drawing method of single-code network diagrams in progress management, and the candidates are required to calculate the earliest start time and latest start time, and find the shortest Critical path, calculation of advance, delayed construction period, cost, etc. (this was taken in the first question in the second half of 2011, I was planted, this question basically gave points, but I made a mistake, and I kept going Wrong, fortunately, the last two questions are estimated to be able to be answered). There are also earned value calculations in cost management, which are also tested a lot, such as calculating CV, PV, etc.
