Passing the PMP exam is a serious study project, and the first decision is whether to assemble a full video course or find a single book that works like a course. The challenge is getting a structured guide you can actually afford and follow. Rita Mulcahy's PMP Exam Prep, subtitled 'Rita's Course in a Book for Passing the PMP Exam,' is one such book, and this listing offers the 7th edition in a Trade Paperback format for USD 8.99.
Quick verdict
If you want a self-contained, author-driven study text rather than a video subscription, this is a legitimate candidate. You get a 7th edition Trade Paperback by Rita Mulcahy and Laurie Diethelm, sold by hpb-red. The main thing to accept is that you are buying a used copy, not a new one.
Who it suits
This works best for a self-directed learner who prefers reading, annotating, and working through exercises over watching long video lessons. The 'Course in a Book' phrase in the title signals that the text is meant to be a complete study path, and a Trade Paperback is easy to carry and mark up.
What stands out from the listed details
The edition, ISBN, format, and authors are clearly spelled out. This is the 7th edition, ISBN 9781932735413, in English, with Rita Mulcahy and Laurie Diethelm as authors. The seller hpb-red describes itself as selling quality books and media since 1972, which gives a small amount of context for a used-book purchase.
Meaningful trade-offs
The meaningful trade-off is the 'Good' condition rating. Because this is a used copy rated Good, normal wear is likely. If you need pristine pages or an unmarked workbook, this listing doesn't guarantee that. Also, this is the 7th edition, so make sure that's the version your study plan calls for. The book's density is both its strength and its demand: it's a complete course in one volume, but you'll need time and active reading to work through it.
Rita Mulcahy's PMP Exam Prep: Rita's Course in a Book for Passing the PMP Exam
This 7th edition Trade Paperback is priced at USD 8.99 and comes in Good condition from hpb-red. The concrete reason to choose it is the course-style framework promised by the title, along with a full author-led structure in a single physical book. The concrete limitation is that it's a used copy in Good condition, so you should expect normal wear and possible prior-owner marks.
Bottom line
If you're looking for a low-cost, book-based starting point for PMP prep, this edition fits the bill. Just be sure you're comfortable with a used copy in the condition described and with the 7th edition as your study source. If both of those work, you have a substantial course-style text at a modest price.
