•             Question 1          When completing a forward pass, you carry the early finish to the next activity where it becomes its early start unless the next succeeding activity is a merge activity. In this case you select the smallest early finish number of all its immediate predecessor activities.                                

•             Question 2          ________ activities are to be completed immediately following a particular activity.                       

•             Question 3          An activity cannot begin until ALL preceding connected activities have been completed.                               

•             Question 4          Which of the following correctly calculates the late start for an activity?                                

                Question 5          Which of the following is true about hammock activities?                                             

•             Question 6                          Which of the following will correctly calculate the total slack in an activity?                                           

•             Question 7          ________ activities must be completed immediately before a particular activity.                                             

•             Question 8          A merge activity is one that merges with other activities into a succeeding activity.                          

•             Question 9          Which of the following is provided by both the project network and the work breakdown structure?                                          

•             Question 10        If a project has more than one activity that can begin when the project is to start, a common start node should be used to indicate a clear project beginning on the network. Without a common start node, each path is a                                               

•             Question 11        The critical path is the shortest path through a network and indicates activities that cannot be delayed without delaying the project.                                   

               

•             Question 12        If a network has more than one critical path but noncritical activities have very little slack, the network is considered to have a high level of sensitivity.                                              

•             Question 13        The likelihood the original critical path(s) will change once the project is initiated is referred to as                                               

•             Question 14        If the project has a duration of 13 days, the project should be completed 13 days from the day it starts.                                  

•             Question 15        An activity that has more than one dependency arrow flowing into it is termed a(n)                       

•             Question 16        When completing a backward pass, you carry the LS to the next preceding activity to establish the LF, unless the next preceding activity is a burst activity, in which case you select                                               

•             Question 17        The amount of time an activity can be delayed and yet not delay the project is termed                 

•             Question 18        The backward pass in project network calculations determines all of the following EXCEPT           

•             Question 19        Which of the following correctly calculates the early finish for an activity?                                            

•             Question 20        The minimum amount of time a dependent activity must be delayed to begin or end is referred to as                                           

•             Question 21        Lags can be used to constrain the start and finish of an activity.                                 

•             Question 22        Arrows on an activity-on-node (AON) project network represent                                            

•             Question 23        Activities which can take place at the same time are termed                                       

•             Question 24        Experience suggests that when there are multiple starts, a common start node should be used to indicate a clear project beginning on the network. Similarly, a single project end node can be used to indicate a clear ending.                                

•             Question 25        Gantt charts are popular because they represent an easy-to-understand, clear picture on a time-scaled horizon.
