Thanks for sharing your LL and congratulations

Congratulations, good to see you are cleared in frist attempt.

 

Did you memorize ITTO's?

Nope I didnt memorize all ITTO's.

I just tried to remember outputs of all process like 

Output of Define Activity is - Activity List, Activity Attributes and Milestone List.

Also

I tried to remember ITTO only for Devop Project Charter, Identiry Stakeholders, Close Procurement 

and Close Project - as this 4 processes cover Inititaing & Closing

 

Thanks for the reply, it helps a lot.

I am struggling to remember them, it seems to almost impossible.....just curious how many of them are direct questions related to ITTO's.

Hi Arun,


Congratulations!!
