It is important to save the original schedule baseline and schedule model before
creating the new schedule baseline to:


A Prevent loss of historical data for the project schedule.
B Ensure that the project progresses according to the original schedule baseline.
C Prevent any changes to the project.
D Ensure that the project progresses according to the new schedule baseline. -
ANSWER-The reason to save the original schedule baseline and schedule model
before creating the new schedule baseline is to protect the integrity of the baseline
and the historical data of past performance. PMBOK® 4.5.3.3, pg 100


A Monte Carlo analysis is an example of a __________.


A Simulation technique
B Cause and effect analysis

,C Critical path method
D Critical chain analysis - ANSWER-Simulation involves calculating multiple
project durations with different sets of activity assumptions, usually using
probability distributions constructed from the three-point estimates to account for
uncertainty. The most common simulation technique is Monte Carlo analysis, in
which a distribution of possible activity durations is defined for each activity and
used to calculate a distribution of possible outcomes for the total project.
PMBOK® 6.6.2.5, pg 180


The four types of dependencies used to define the sequence among activities are:


A Mandatory dependencies, dummy dependencies, and external dependencies.
B Mandatory dependencies, external dependencies, discretionary dependencies and
internal dependencies.
C Mandatory dependencies, discretionary dependencies, non-critical dependencies,
and critical dependencies.
D Mandatory dependencies, external dependencies, internal dependencies and
dummy dependencies. - ANSWER-The four types of dependencies used to define
the sequence among activities are mandatory dependencies, discretionary
dependencies, external dependencies, and internal dependencies. PMBOK®
6.3.2.2, pgs 157-158


Stanley's construction project was scheduled to complete a new office park facility
in the spring. Unfortunately, foul weather made it impossible to start construction
on time and the project seems to be delayed by at least six weeks. The team has not
been able to make up the lost time and it's time for Stanley to update the board of
directors on the new target completion date. To prepare for the meeting, Stanley
changes the schedule to reflect the delay and project the new completion date.
What kind of change has Stanley made?


A. A variance.

,B A project schedule update.
C A requested change.
D An approved request. - ANSWER-A project schedule update (Choice B) will be
generated from the updated schedule data to reflect the schedule changes and
manage the project. PMBOK® 6.7.3.5, pg 191


Jeanna's project report reflects an SPI of 0.68. She and her team are recommending
a corrective action and are preparing to present it to senior management. Jeanna
was surprised when her boss told her to make sure that the Monte Carlo analysis of
the remaining schedule for the project is included in the presentation. What is
likely missing from the presentation?


A An analysis that shows the probability of the remaining deliverables meeting the
relevant standards
B An analysis that shows the project will not vary from the original cost baseline
C The Gantt chart
D An analysis of the probability of when the project will be completed -
ANSWER-The SPI value of 0.68 indicates that Jeanna's project is currently
progressing at only 68% of what was planned. Even though Jeanna may have
determined the root cause of the variation and how to recover from it, she also
needs to present how the corrective action will impact the project completion date.
A Monte Carlo simulation (Choice D) is a process which generates hundreds or
thousands of probable performance outcomes based on probability distributions for
cost and schedule on individual tasks. The outcomes are then used to generate a
probability distribution for the project as a whole. PMBOK® Glossary, pg 547


All of the following are tools and techniques used with the Control Schedule
process EXCEPT:


A Variance analysis.

, B Project management software.
C Statistical sampling.
D Resource leveling. - ANSWER-Statistical sampling (Choice C) is the only
outlier as a technique used with the Control Quality process, rather than with the
Control Schedule process, and is therefore the correct answer. PMBOK® 6.7.2,
pgs 188-190


The four types of dependencies, finish-to-start, finish-to-finish, start-to-start, and
start-to-finish, are used with the __________ technique.


A Logical relationship
B Calendaring
C Precedence Diagramming Method (PDM)
D Workflow Diagramming Method (WDM) - ANSWER-PDM includes the four
types of dependencies or logical relationships listed in the question. PMBOK®
6.3.2.1, pg 156


One tool that can be used to determine if the project schedule has changed is:


A cause and effect diagram.
B A Pareto chart.
C Project management software.
D RAM. - ANSWER-Project management software (Choice C) for scheduling
provides the ability to track planned dates versus actual dates, and to report
variances to and progress made against the schedule baseline, and to forecast the
effects of changes to the project schedule model. PMBOK® 6.7.2.2, pg 189
