Free PMI CAPM Actual Exam Questions - Question 2 Discussion

D feels right because it’s about locking in key people promised upfront, unlike the others which are more about funding or logistics rather than team member timing.

B/C? I get why D sounds logical, but B might also make sense since if you can get staff externally, you might pre-assign them early to secure their availability. C seems less connected since travel expenses don’t directly impact team member assignment timing. So between B and D, I’d say B could be valid if pre-assignment is about confirming outside hires early.

Probably D again. Pre-assignment is about locking in certain team members early, which makes most sense when specific people are promised as part of a bid or proposal. The other options don’t really address why you’d assign people beforehand—especially B and C, which are about staffing availability and costs, not promises. So D feels like the only one that clearly links to pre-assignment.

Option A sounds off-capital expenditures don’t really relate to pre-assigning people. I’m thinking it’s probably D since promising specific people fits with pre-assignment.
