At PPM, we have a simple mission: Treat people right, do the right thing, and do it with passion. Unfortunately, we frequently hear PMP Prep Course nightmares of companies that are not as focused on doing the right thing.

If you are researching PMP prep courses or materials, here are some immediate give-aways that you are not dealing with an honest company:

1. They quote student scores on the PMP exam. Although percentages were provided in the past across the multiple domains and subdomains evaluated on the exam, there was not a "175 out of 200" score provided. Because of pre-test questions, this would be impossible to calculate based on the percentages. In addition, as of last year, the PMP score report only reports your proficiency level: Below Proficient, Moderately Proficient, Proficient. If the provider has "scores", you might want to validate the testimonials.
