Summary: Over 1300 practice questions. Similar to the actual test.
Comment: After comparing some of the most popular PMP preparation software programs, I found this software to be one of the better ones in the market. There are a few limitations to this software but in my opinion, the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages.
The main advantage is that PM Fastrack takes a Process Group approach as opposed to a Knowledge Area approach and this alone can single-handedly influence whether you are going to pass the PMP. In addition, PM Fastrack is probably the largest repository of exam practice questions you can find in any product. I have looked at several products (software and books) and not found any that has more questions than this product.
The thing I liked the most about PM Fastrack is that the questions on the CD-ROM very closely resemble the actual test questions. The resemblence is in more ways than one - nature of questions, phrasing of questions, length etc. In a couple of instances, I even saw an exact repeating of the questions from this product. I don't know how it happened, but it did.
There are a few things I didn't like about the software. If you are into software development, you will instantly recognize that good HCI principles were NOT followed in designing this software. In one instance, I lost the results of 3 hours of work that I did because I clicked on a button that had misleading instructions. In case you are wondering, I am not new to using computer software.
But I am guessing you aren't looking for good HCI or usability when evaluating a software to buy that will help you pass the PMP. So, I think if you mentally prepare yourself for not liking these aspects of the software, then you may not find these problems as annoying as I did. Ignoring the disadvantages, you can't go wrong with this software in preparing for the PMP. The software is more useful if you use it along with 'PMP Exam Prep' by Rita Mulcahy also. Good luck with passing the PMP!

Summary: Very good test simulation tool !!
Comment: Gave me all the confidence I needed to take the exam. Didn't had to waste much time understanding the format of the exam. A very comprehensive set of questions. Helped me tremendously in passing the exam with 82.5% !!
The wording of the PMI exam questions was different. But looks like Rita Mulcahy's products had prepared me adequately to deal with it. I couldn't have passed the exam without all the practice this CD offered. I used PMP Exam Prep (4th Edition), and Hot Topics by Rita Mulcahy in addition to the PMBOK. Did not attend any classes.

Summary: Best PMP exam preparation tool
Comment: With about 1300 questions, this covers all the topics thoroughly and gives you the practice you need for the PMP exam. Best resource out there. Complements the PMP exam prep book. Provides simultated testing to give you the "real" exam feel.
The question in the book are included in this CD ROM.
If you buy this CD, you dont need to buy the other publication "Professional Responsibility and Situational Qanda: Sample Questions on the PMP Exam"
