1. PMP EXAM
SAMPLE Q & A

2. Two team members are arguing over how to organize the work packages in the work breakdown
structure (WBS). One says the work packages should be arranged in the order the work is planned
to be carried out, while the other insists the order of the work packages in the WBS does not
matter. The two ask the project manager for advice.
What is the project manager's best response?
A. Work is decomposed and sequenced in the Define Activities process.
B. Any approach is good as long as the team members avoid the conflict.
C. The chronological order of tasks is defined in the Sequence Activities process.
D. The approach should be defined by the project management office (PMO).
HINT: In what process are project activities sequenced?
Question

3. The Create WBS process provides a framework of 'what' has to be delivered but does not involve
sequencing.
The correct answer is C.
To answer this question correctly, one should be able to distinguish a deliverable and work package
from the schedule and activities. The planned work is contained within the lowest level of the
components of the work breakdown structure (WBS). These components are called work packages.
A work package can be used to group the activities where work is scheduled and estimated,
monitored, and controlled. In the context of the WBS, work refers to work products or deliverables
that are the result of activity and not to the activity itself.
The work packages are further decomposed into schedule activities that are then sequenced to
obtain the greatest efficiency given all the project's constraints.
