While all Head First books teach you how to kick butt at a certain topic, some of them are specifically geared to help you pass an exam. Head First Servlets & JSP helps you pass the SCWCD exam, for example, while Head First EJB gets you through the SCBCD exam. Our most recent test-oriented book, Head First PMP, prepares readers for the Project Management Professional© Exam with tips defeating the trickiest questions.
One of the best ways to prepare for an exam is to practice taking it. If you answer similar questions under an appropriate time limit, you're not only testing your knowledge of the subject, you're also making sure you can represent that knowledge in the way the test demands. Unfortunately, because practice exams are so valuable to learners, they're often really expensive. We didn't like this —so we decided to offer a full 200-question PMP practice exam for free in conjunction with Head First PMP—no purchase necessary. At first we made it available as a PDF download, but now we've gone a step further: now you can take the PMP exam on Head First Labs as if you were taking the real thing. You can take a few questions at a time to warm up, and the 4-hour full exam when you're ready.
We'd love feedback about the test interface. Does it help you learn? What would make it even better? Even if you're not studying for the PMP exam, this test is a fun way to see how much you know about the latest tenets of project management. You can post comments here or to the Head First PMP Forum here.
As we develop more web features for future books, we want to hear from you. How do you prepare for tests or certification exams? What's helped you the most? What was a waste of your time?
