Appendix: Study Matrix

Overview

Periodically, the Project Management Institute (PMI®) publishes a Role Delineation Study (RDS) and uses to define the responsibilities of the recipients of the Project Management Professional (PMP®) credential In 2009, PMI® commissioned a new RDS for the PMP®, which then was published as the PMI® PMP® Examination Content Outline (ECO) and issued it in July 2011. It serves as the foundation for the PMP® exam and for our 200-question practice test in this book and in our on line test.

The ECO identified five broad performance domains and determined how the 175 questions on the PMP® exam would be distributed according to these domains*. The distribution is as follows:

I	Initiating	13%
II	Planning	24%
III	Executing	30%
IV	Monitoring and Controlling	25%
V	Closing	8%

The matrix beginning on page identifies each practice test question according to its performance domain and its knowledge area in the PMBOK® Guide.

The matrix is designed to help you—

Assess your strengths and weaknesses in each of the performance domains
Identify those areas in which you need additional study before you take the PMP® exam

Here is an easy way to use the matrix:

Step 1 Circle all the questions you missed on the practice test in Column 1.

Step 2 For each circled question, note the corresponding process in Column 2.

Step 3 To determine whether any patterns emerge indicating weak areas, tally the information you obtained from the matrix.

Step 4 To ensure that you have a good understanding of the major management processes that define a particular knowledge area, including the input, tools and techniques, and output, refer to the appropriate knowledge area in the PMBOK® Guide.

The last column in the matrix is provided for your notes.
