Increased complexity in communication too, I think.

I feel like communication complexity could increase, but I don’t think that’s the main issue here. Delays seem more relevant based on what we practiced.

This reminds me of a practice question where a similar situation caused a delay. I think the answer might be that it delays activity F.

I’m not entirely sure, but I think if we add a dependency, it could affect the critical path. I might need to double-check that.

I remember studying dependencies and how they can impact the schedule. If F depends on E, it seems likely that F would be delayed.

I'm a little confused by this one. The new dependency could affect communication, or it might not have any effect at all. I'm not sure I fully understand how this would impact the critical path. I'll need to review the chart and the question more carefully.

Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. If activity F can't start until the results of activity E are available, that's going to delay the start of F. And since F is on the critical path, that delay will push out the overall project timeline. So I'm pretty confident option A is the right answer.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure here. The question mentions a "new dependency", but I'm not sure if that automatically means the critical path will increase. I might need to double-check the chart and think this through a bit more.

This seems straightforward - the new dependency between activities E and F would definitely increase the critical path, so I'll go with option A.

As someone who's been on plenty of projects, I can tell you that missing dependencies are the bane of our existence. D is the only logical answer here.

Looks like we need to make sure activity E is completed before starting activity F.

Hold up, is this a trick question? I'm leaning towards D, but I wouldn't put it past them to try and confuse us. Better double-check the chart just to be sure.
