This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams.
In this episode you will learn:
- The CAPM exam structure (150 questions, 3 hours) and the critical domain weightings, with PM Fundamentals (36%) and Business Analysis (27%) being the most significant.
- How to tackle high-yield calculation questions, including Earned Value Management (CPI/SPI), the communication channels formula, and identifying the critical path.
- The key differences between agile methodologies, focusing on Scrum events and artifacts, and traditional predictive project management.
- Common exam traps, such as the distinction between Validate Scope and Control Quality, and understanding risk allocation in Fixed-Price versus Cost-Reimbursable contracts.
- A simple mnemonic for EVM formulas: 'PV plans, EV earns, AC spends — EV over AC is CPI, over PV is SPI,' to quickly solve variance and index questions.
