Gloosary in PMBOK

[ajaynit]

how important it is to mug-up gloosary ( terms given in PMBOK) for PMP exam?
while its obvious that we must understand its meaning and concept but sometimes we tend to forget specific words or terms with specific definitions
...
i know its kind of open question or rather vague question but any free flowing opinion from/to any direction will be appreciated.

It is better to read it one time and to understand the difference between different tools. For example what is the difference between assumption analysis and checklist analysis or between QFD and JAD.

Glossary is meant to revise important terms. You can read it 2 days before the exam to refresh your memory.

Mugging will not help you here. Instead you need to visualize each and every term. It may sound farcical to visualize so many terms however with practice you can visualize atleast the key terms.
