I’m a bit confused between back scheduling and front scheduling. I hope I remember correctly that back scheduling is the one that starts from the due date.

I feel like I saw a similar question in our last mock exam, and back scheduling was the answer there too.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. The question mentions the department is often under pressure and feels understaffed, which doesn't sound like a strength. But I guess the fact that they have authority to investigate everything and are independent could be seen as strengths. I'll have to weigh the pros and cons carefully.
