PM practice questions - frequently asked questions

Plain answers about how PM Exam Prep works: the exam, the questions, pricing, the free trial, and what you actually get.

No - and you should be wary of any site claiming otherwise. Every question here is original, written to mirror the style, difficulty, and judgment the real PM exam tests. Each one comes with a plain-language explanation of why the right answer is right and the others aren't.

The PM exam spans 14 domains: Background Concepts (5% of the exam); Assessment of Pain (5% of the exam); Treatment of Pain: Pharmacotherapy (15% of the exam); Treatment of Pain: Procedural (15% of the exam); Treatment of Pain: Psychological, Physical, and Integrative Therapies (10% of the exam); Taxonomy: Classification of Pain Syndromes (1% of the exam); Chronic Widespread Pain Syndromes (1% of the exam); Acute Pain, Pain due to Trauma, and Procedural Pain (6.5% of the exam); Musculoskeletal Pain (12.5% of the exam); Cancer Pain and Cancer-related Pain (6% of the exam); Visceral Pain (4% of the exam); Headache and Orofacial Pain (3% of the exam); Neuropathic Pain (8% of the exam); Special Cases (8% of the exam). Every practice question on this site is tagged to one of these domains.

The domains are not weighted equally on the exam. By share of the marks: Treatment of Pain: Pharmacotherapy 15%; Treatment of Pain: Procedural 15%; Musculoskeletal Pain 12.5%; Treatment of Pain: Psychological, Physical, and Integrative Therapies 10%; Neuropathic Pain 8%; Special Cases 8%; Acute Pain, Pain due to Trauma, and Procedural Pain 6.5%; Cancer Pain and Cancer-related Pain 6%; Background Concepts 5%; Assessment of Pain 5%; Visceral Pain 4%; Headache and Orofacial Pain 3%; Taxonomy: Classification of Pain Syndromes 1%; Chronic Widespread Pain Syndromes 1%.
