Q1 · CommunicationsCorrect
A project sponsor asks for a status update in the middle of a sprint. Which artifact best communicates overall project health at a glance?
A. The risk register
You ✓B. A status dashboard
C. The stakeholder register
D. The work breakdown structure
Why: A status dashboard rolls up schedule, cost, and risk into a single at-a-glance view — ideal for a sponsor. The other artifacts are detailed working documents, not summary communications.
Q2 · IntegrationCorrect
Which of the following are outputs of the Develop Project Charter process? (Select all that apply)
You ✓A. Project charter
You ✓B. Assumption log
C. Risk register
D. Work performance data
Why: Develop Project Charter produces the project charter and the assumption log. The risk register comes from Identify Risks; work performance data is collected during execution.
Q3 · CostIncorrect
On a project, BAC = $100k, EV = $40k, and AC = $50k. What is the Cost Performance Index (CPI)?
CorrectA. 0.80
Your pickB. 1.25
C. 0.40
D. 1.00
Why: CPI = EV / AC = 40k / 50k = 0.80. A CPI below 1.0 means the project is over budget for the work performed.
Q4 · StakeholdersCorrect
A key stakeholder is resisting an approved change. What should the project manager do FIRST?
A. Escalate to the sponsor
You ✓B. Seek to understand their concerns
C. Update the change log
D. Proceed per the plan
Why: Engagement starts with understanding. Listening to the concern surfaces the root issue before escalating or overriding — which preserves the relationship and often resolves the resistance.
Q5 · AgileCorrect
Which of the following are characteristics of an agile delivery approach? (Select all that apply)
A. Scope fully fixed up front
You ✓B. Iterative, incremental delivery
You ✓C. Continuous stakeholder feedback
You ✓D. Change welcomed, even late
Why: Agile delivers in iterations, invites continuous feedback, and welcomes change late in development. Fixing scope entirely up front is a predictive (waterfall) trait.
