Just do as many test bank questions as you can.
Yes you need to understand the pmbok, but the questions are structed in a very specific manner and I think it's best to focus on how questions are presented and how best to answer them. Then, focus on weak areas. You really only need like a 70% or so to pass, at least as if a few years ago

Deloitte offers a free weeklong in-person PMP boot camp, or did in pre-COVID times. Might still be available virtually. They drill the information for 4.5 days and give you a voucher for exam fee, plus a bonus if/when you pass.

Addendum - study how PMI wants you to answer the question, not what you would logically do in the situation or what the real world would demand. These are often quite different...
