By. Mr. Hery Purnama
1. After the project manager has collected the requirements and received approval for the scope statement, what process should the project manager do next?
⚫ Create WBS
⚪ Define activities
⚪ Create scope baseline
⚪ Sequence activities
Explanation: The create WBS process is generally done after the scope statement has been created, as it will decompose the deliverables in the scope statement. You cannot define activities or sequence activities until the WBS is complete, as you will need to know work packages to create the activities. Create scope baseline is a made-up term.
2. When managing a small construction project, the project manager has informed the project team members that they are using too many materials to complete the project work. The project manager feels the team members could utilize a lot less materials to accomplish the work they’re currently doing. What process describes this scenario?
⚪ Manage team
⚪ Develop team
⚪ Monitor resources
⚫ Control resources
Explanation: Control resources is a process that ensures the physical resources are being utilized correctly. Manage team and develop team are used to manage the project team and not the physical resources. Monitor resources is a made-up process.
3. While working on a network upgrade project, a team member installed the network connection and is now configuring the router in order to work with the network connection. The network connection must be done before the router can be configured. This is an example of what kind of dependency?
⚪ Discretionary dependency
⚪ External dependency
⚫ Mandatory dependency
⚪ Internal dependency
Explanation: Mandatory dependency is when activities must be done in a certain order. For example, you must complete A then complete B. Internal dependencies are things that are under the control of the project team, and external dependencies are things that are outside the control of the project team, such as getting a permit. Discretionary dependency is when two activities can be done in any order and they’re not dependent upon each other.
4. While working on a project, the project manager has been inspiring the team members to do the best they can. Also, the project manager has been regularly communicating the project’s vision to the team. What skill does this best describe?
⚪ Networking
⚪ Active listening
⚫ Leadership
⚪ Facilitation
Explanation: Leadership skill is part of interpersonal and team skills. It is used to inspire people and to communicate the project’s vision.

⚪ Downwards
⚪ Sideways
⚪ Outwards
⚫ Upwards
Explanation: Upwards influence is for stakeholders above you such as senior management. Downward influence is for those below you such as team members. Sideways influence is for those who are your peers such as other project managers. Outwards influence is for those who are external, such as vendors.
6. While discussing the benefits of agile with three of the organization’s key stakeholders what would be seeing as the main benefit for conducting the project using agile methodology versus traditional methodology?
⚫ Agile delivers value incrementally
⚪ Agile project requires funding up front
⚪ Traditional delivers values all up front
⚪ Traditional delivers value at the beginning
Explanation: One of the main benefits of using agile over traditional project management, is that agile delivers value incrementally versus getting value only at the end of the project.
7. The agile project team has decided to do one of the features from the product backlog. The single feature will take six weeks to complete and will be reviewed by the customer. What actions should the agile project manager take next?
⚪ Inform the customers of the six weeks duration
⚫ Informed the team six weeks is too long and they will need to decomposed that feature into smaller increments
⚪ Arrange the workspace for the team members to get started
⚪ Inform the team they need to conduct the daily standup meetings
Explanation: In agile iterations should be no more than one to four weeks. Features the takes longer than should be decomposed into smaller features that can fit within a time box of one to four weeks.
8. The risk management plan generally outlines the steps the project will take to conduct risk management processes on the project. Which of the following will the risk management plan not include?
⚪ Roles and responsibilities for the project team concerning risks processes
⚪ A way to categorize the risks
⚪ The methodology used to manage risks
⚫ Positive risks that could affect the project
Explanation: The risk register lists both positive and negative risks, not the risk management plan. The risk management plan includes the risk breakdown structure that categorizes risks, roles, and responsibilities for the team members and the methodology they would use to perform the risk processes on the project.
9. While analyzing the budget of a project, the project manager notices that the current CPI of the project is .93 and the SPI is 1.1. What best describes what is taking place on this project?
⚫ Crashing
⚪ Fast tracking
⚪ Best tracking
⚪ Resource leveling
Explanation: Crashing involves adding more resources to a project to decrease the schedule. In this scenario, the project is 7% over budget but is 10% ahead of schedule. Fast tracking and resource leveling generally do not increase costs. Best tracking is a made-up term.
10. The project team is currently having disagreements about the program and methods they would use to implement a few of the features in the product backlog. What role should the agile project manager be doing during this scenario?
⚪ Delegate tasks to find a resolution
⚪ Inform them the resolution can only be approved by the agile project manager
⚪ Direct them to a resolution
⚫ Coach them to a resolution
Explanation: During the storming phase of the Tuckman’s letter, the agile project manager should be coaching the team to support constructive disagreement. Let the team find the best methods to resolve their issues.
11. A project manager has completed the project status report. The report states the CPI is 1.1 and the SPI is 1.14. The report was given to the project sponsor, who has become very upset about the project’s progress and has requested an immediate meeting with the project manager. What should the project manager report in the meeting?
⚫ The project is progressing on schedule and budget
⚪ Their has been many changes to the scope that has cause the project to be behind schedule
⚪ Their has been many changes to the scope that has cause the project to be over budget
⚪ The project is behind schedule and over budget due to scope creep
Explanation: A SPI and CPI of 1 and greater tell us that the project is actually under budget and ahead of schedule. All other choices are reporting wrong information.

The customer has already checked the completed part of the software and has accepted it. The team has refused to deploy the software. What work best explains the team’s refusal?
⚪ The iteration took too long
⚪ The iteration needs to be closed
⚪ The iteration has many errors
⚫ The iteration is part of a release
Explanation: Iterations are part of a product that is inspected by the customers. An iteration may not be something that can be released to users since it only represents a few weeks’ worth of work. A release usually includes multiple iterations that are releasable to the customers. In this
13. A project manager is having a very difficult time negotiating with a functional manager. The project manager would like to have Peter, the system administrator, work on the project full time, but the functional manager needs Peter full time to work on the servers throughout the day in case one goes down. After a few days of negotiating, the project manager has determined that he will have Peter from Monday to Wednesday, and the functional manager can have Peter on Thursday and Friday. Although this solution is not the most ideal scenario for the project manager and functional manager, it will have to work for now. What conflict resolution technique was used?
⚪ Forcing
⚪ Problem solving
⚪ Smoothing
⚫ Compromising
Explanation: Compromising is when both sides in a conflict give up something to come up with a solution. Smoothing is when the problem is pushed aside, and forcing is when one side completely wins and the other side completely loses. Problem-solving is the best way, but that would require both sides to come up with a solution in which they both win.
14. The project manager has been informed that the cost of building a new room in the office will be $15,000, +/- 65%. The project manager wants to know why there is such a large variance in the estimate. The builder said they have not seen the space and it’s just a high-level estimate. What kind of estimate does this best represent?
⚪ Definitive estimate
⚫ Rough order of magnitude estimate
⚪ Materials estimate
⚪ Detail estimate
Explanation: A rough order of magnitude estimate has a variance of -25% to +75%. It is usually done in the early phases of the project. Definitive estimates are between -5% to +10%. Detail estimate and materials estimate are made-up terms.
15. The project manager and team have decided to hire a contractor to complete building out the remaining section of the datacenter. They have the requirements listed in detail and would like to use a contract that would present the smallest amount of risk to the project. The project team members would like to purchase the materials themselves since there are very familiar with the work. What contract is best for this project?
⚪ Cost plus project fee
⚫ Cost plus fixed fee
⚪ Cost plus contractor fee
⚪ Time and materials
Explanation: A cost-plus-fixed-fee contract is where the buyer pays all the work expenses and then pays a fixed price for the work. A time and materials contract is where the buyer pays all the work expenses and then pays the sellers for the time they spent doing the work, and this contract has the highest risk to the buyers. All other choices are made-up terms.
16. In what process does a project manager determine the approach they will use to involve the stakeholders to meet their expectations?
⚪ Plan communications
⚫ Plan stakeholders engagement
⚪ Identify stakeholders
⚪ Manage stakeholders engagements
Explanation: During the process of plan stakeholder engagement, the project manager will develop an approach to involve the stakeholders to meet their expectations, interest, and potential impact on the project. Identify stakeholders is establishing who the stakeholders are on the project and what their interests will be their interest. Plan communications is to create a plan to ensure that all stakeholders are receiving the correct communications.
