I vaguely recall a practice question about project success rates, and it seemed like those without clear goals had a higher risk of failure, which makes me think C is the answer.

I think I read that projects disconnected from organizational objectives can lead to wasted resources, so maybe A is a possibility?

I feel pretty confident about this one. The question is clearly asking about projects that are not linked to organizational goals, so the answer has to be D - they should not be approved.

Okay, I've got a strategy here. The key is to focus on the connection to organizational goals. Projects not aligned with those goals are riskier and more likely to fail, so the answer is probably C - they have a high risk of failure.
