A lot of them are now outdated since the new exam that is based on PMBOK 6th Edition started in March 2018. Make sure you are purchasing the most up to date material. If you research on how tests are implemented you will find that anytime a new version of the test is rolled out it takes time for the PMI to calibrate the complexity of questions. In some sense, you as a candidate are also doing the User Acceptance Testing for the PMI. Therefore, taking the new test is a challenge in its own regard.
What are the constraints? Pick two from cheap, fast or good. Two out of these three will define the third factor. "You get what you pay for!" old saying is still valid and also applies when it comes to prep tests. The amount of time you invest in prepping is directly correlated to how well you perform on the actual test. However, you can still find tons of free or trial versions of the sample test.
Stay tuned, will post the testing material soon.
