Which attribute is described as 'answers the questions: who, what, where, when, why, which'?

• A. Specific
• B. Timely
• C. Measurable
• D. Achievable

Answer: (A)

Specificity means describing details that leave no doubt about what will be done and by whom, where, when, and why. When a goal is specific, it answers who is involved, what will be accomplished, where it will occur, when it will happen, and which aspects matter. This clarity turns a vague aim into a concrete target you can plan around and measure progress against. That makes it the best fit for the description that those questions are answered, because it directly provides the exact scope and context of the goal. Other attributes focus on different dimensions: Timely adds timing and deadlines, Measurable adds criteria to track progress, and Achievable checks feasibility. They’re important, but they don’t define the goal’s clarity about who/what/where/when/why/which the way specificity does.
