What CAPM actually tests
The official PMI blueprint (CAPM Exam Content Outline (2023)) splits the exam into 4 domains, weighted as below. Skarp maps every question and every study guide to one of them, so a weak domain is something you can see and fix rather than guess at.

How Skarp gets you to 70%
Step 1
Free diagnostic
About a minute. You get a score for every domain, not a single number — so you can tell whether the gap is in “Project Management Fundamentals and Core Concepts” or somewhere narrower.
Step 2
A study guide from your wrong answers
Not a generic chapter. The guide is written against the questions you actually missed, and it explains why each wrong option was wrong.
Step 3
Mock exams at real conditions
150 questions, 180 minutes, same domain weighting as the real CAPM paper.
Step 4
Repeat, re-weighted
Each retake over-weights the domains you struggled with, until your readiness score sits clear of the 70% pass mark.

Which blueprint version does this cover?
Skarp maps every Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) question to the official CAPM Exam Content Outline (2023) blueprint from PMI, across 4 exam domains. Questions are dated to their blueprint version, so you are never studying a retired syllabus.
Is the Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) diagnostic free?
Yes. The diagnostic is free and needs no card. It takes about a minute and reports which of the 4 exam domains are already solid and which are not. Full prep — adaptive study guides and unlimited mock exams — needs Plus.
