Dear PMP® Student,

My name is Cornelius Fichtner, PMP and in the past 18 months I have helped nearly 2,700 project managers around the world to prepare for and take the PMP Exam. During this time I have seen that there is one factor above all that helps people pass the PMP® exam:

You must know and be able to apply all the PMP® Exam Formulas.
And the best way to do that is with a Guide and a Cheat Sheet.

If you don't know the required formulas you will have no chance to pass the exam. That is why I have created The PMP® Exam formula Study Guide and Cheat Sheet for you. This is a complete approach that will teach you the PMP formulas, values, acronyms and you even get sample questions to test yourself on.

Click to hear me explain the complete PMP Exam Formula Study Guide.

To begin, let me ask you this:

Are you ready for PMP Exam Questions like these?

  • 47 Essential PMP Formulas - Did you know that there were that many formulas to know? We list them all. And you can be sure that they are correct.
  • The Formula Concept - Every formula has a a reason why it exists. We explain this reason to you in everyday english. Knowing and understanding this concept makes it easier for you to use the formula.
  • Formula Variations - Many formulas have variations. For instance the Estimate to Complete (ETC) can be determined in 4 ways. We show you how, explain the differences and tell you when to use which variation.
  • Formula Keywords - Certain formulas are only applicable in specific situations. PMP Exam questions use certain keywords to indicate to you which formula to use. You will learn all keywords. Promise.
  • Result Interpretations - You will come across PMP Exam questions that ask you to interpret the result of a formula. So we teach you how to interpret them

  • 26 Formula Related Acronyms - Do you know what EAC, VAC, CPI, CBR or PTA mean? You certainly will with the help of your Formula Guide.

For easy reference you will find all formulas listed in a table. Here is what the table looks like, what you can expect to find and how we explain each formula to you:

Concept Formula Result Interpretation
The first column contains “The Concept” behind the formula. Instead of just giving you the formula “CV = EV - AC” we want to make sure that you understand what the formula is trying to achieve. And the best way to do that is by explaining its concept. We list the actual formula in the second column. For some concepts multiple formulas are needed, so we list them all. When helpful we also add examples for better understanding. The formula won’t do you much good if you cannot explain what the result is or means. That is why we include an interpretation in the third column. PMP questions may require interpretation.
Example: Example: Example:
Estimate to Complete (ETC)
Expected cost needed to complete all the remaining work for a schedule activity, a group of activities or the project. Helps predict what the final cost of the project will be upon completion. There are many ways to calculate ETC depending on the assumptions made.
ETC = (BAC - EV) / CPI
Assumption: use formula if current variances are thought to be typical in the future.
The planned budget minus the earned value modified by project performance. Result is a monetary value that will tell us how much more the project will cost.

The formula table, the values to remember and the list of acronyms will help you focus your studies on the important facts. There is no wasted time. Put all of this valuable information to work for yourself and order your copy right now...

What Customers Say:

"The PMP Formula Study Guide gave me very good insight into the type of questions that i would encounter. No matter if we study any PMP prep guide, I have come across questions which werent there in my other books and taking the formula guide was the right thing i did. I would ask people to go for it as it explains the principles and how to apply the formula concepts in different scenarios and that will be helpful for the PMP exam."

"I wasn't sure I had all the formulas on my formula cheat sheet. I found the formula materials very helpful to make sure I had all the formulas and values, which I didn't. I also found it great as a review of my understanding at that point. I am doing the PMP Certification in a month, so short cutting the time to ferret out all the formulas was very helpful.
