To end the Self Assessment section, we recommend that you answer the following questions. These questions are intended to help you measure your knowledge of fundamental project management concepts and techniques. If you don't score well on these questions, we recommend reading some books on fundamental project management or spending some more time on the job to gain the fundamental knowledge you need to begin your pursuit of the PMP exam. Some fundamental project management books are cited throughout this book in the "Need to Know More?" sections of each chapter as well as in Appendix B, "Additional Resources." Answer these questions:

  • Do you know the difference between a project charter and a project plan?

  • Do you know the difference between initiating and planning a project?

  • Do you know the difference between backward pass and forward pass to find the critical path in your project?

  • Do you know when scope verification is performed?

  • Do you know how to develop and utilize a WBS?

  • Do you know when to apply a change control system?

  • Do you know how to use schedule network analysis?

  • Do you know the difference between earned value and planned value?

  • Do you know what a Gantt chart is?

  • Do you know when to fast track a schedule or when crashing would be the better option?
