<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Just curious .. can you have
two critical paths of exactly the same length (or I am just playing about with
words and splitting hairs)?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Both are true. The minimum time to complete all tasks
is also the longest path from start to end.<br>
<br>
Just depends on which way you look at it.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Dear All,<br>
<br>
a critical path for a project is the series of activites that determine the
earliest time by which the project can be completed.<br>
<br>
Emphasis on "earliest time".<br>
<br>
In a trial exam my students did some put that the "critical path is the
longest path which a project cannot be delayed wthout delaying the entire
project"<br>
<br>
Emphasis on "longest time". Would this answer be accesptable in an
exam?<br>
Is it "earliest time" or "longest path" or both is ok. <br>
Thank you for any replies. <br>
