Myths about PMP® Exam® Aspirants need 35 PDUs to apply for the PMP® exam

» Contact hours are required to apply for the PMP® exam and PDUs are required to maintain the PMP® credential once you clear the PMP® exam

» The minimum score needed to pass is determined by the overall difficultly of your individual exam

® Passing score for PMP® exam is 61%» There is no documented set marks or percentages to pass the PMP® exam» From November 2005 onwards, PMI® stopped publishing the passing percentage and adopted

psychometric analysis to calculate the passing score hence this assumption is not valid anymore

® You must memorize the Inputs, Tools & Techniques, and Outputs (ITTOs)» There are more than 500 ITTOs in The PMBOK® Guide and to the key is to fully understand the

concepts of each process not the memorization of the ITTOs» Most of the questions relate to how or why a specific ITTO is used in a process and

memorization will be of no use to you when answering those types of questions
