For the last several decades the PMI has been using Prometric for its exams. If you wanted to pass a PMI exam then, in most cases, you needed to do so at a Prometric testing center.
PMI announced that beginning July 1st 2019 it is moving to Pearson VUE for all its certification examinations worldwide (except for China).

A. Fund the project with equity since there are no dividend obligations

Lessons Learned from Hector Pureco, PMP
"...I was very clear that the BEST tool in my box was the PM Exam Simulator. Even 10 question quizzes. It was evident that as valuable as the videos and the books were, the concepts and everything were better ingrained after seeing them on exams. So, I went ahead and started quizzing on the Simulator as
often as I could. 10, 20, 30, 50 questions at the time. In fact, after getting comfortable that the 4 hours were going to be plenty for me based on all the exams I had done to this point, I preferred to do quick ones, so I could get feedback and review the explanations on the wrong answers faster..."

recommend Rita's book. By combining Rita's book with the PM Simulator, students will be fully prepared for the real exam..."
