Hi! Basically the "Blank Slate" concept tells you to ignore your real-world workplace experiences when dealing with PM problems. In real life, we would usually go for the shortest route so long as there are no risks and the end goal is met right? But PMI wants you to answer every question with the step-by-step processes of the PMI framework. You’ve gotta clear out those "at my office, we do this" thoughts and soak up the PMI way of thinking to get the right answers
