CAPM · Learn
6 guides beyond the syllabus: strategy, test day, scoring, section guide, overview and planning.
Strategy
Where CAPM points are won and lost: how to master PMI definitions precisely, why Business Analysis (27%) decides top results, the few calculations worth drilling, and a mock-driven loop that lifts all four domains to 80%+.
Test day
Checklists for a Pearson VUE centre and for OnVUE online testing: ID and check-in, the optional tutorial, reaching question 75 on time, the no-return rule at the break, and how results are released.
Scoring
How the criterion-referenced standard works, what the 15 pretest items mean, what the four performance ratings mean for each domain, why no pass mark is published, and how Courselo mock percentages map to each rating.
Section guide
How to handle each item type (multiple choice, drag-and-drop matching, hot spot, animation video and comic strip) and a 72-seconds-per-question plan with checkpoints at questions 25, 50, 75, 100 and 125.
Overview
Every calculation on the CAPM with a worked example and the usual trap: forward and backward pass, total and free float, triangular and PERT estimates, CV, SV, CPI, SPI, EAC, ETC, VAC, communication channels and velocity-based release forecasts.
Planning
A week-by-week plan through the four domains, weighted by the 36/17/20/27 split, with daily question targets, when to take the diagnostic and the full mock, checkpoint scores and a 3-week fast track.
