At this museum, each exhibition must pass through six preparation stages, numbered 1 through 6, before it can be opened to the public. While an exhibition is still moving through these stages, its current stage is recorded at the end of each calendar day. Once Stage 6 is finished, the exhibition is considered open.
Most stages require either 1 or 2 days of work, and none is permitted to last beyond 3 days. If an exhibition remains longer than this limit, it is regarded as delayed. If an exhibition is discontinued, it is assigned Stage 0, which indicates that the process has been terminated and the exhibition will not open.

Official Solution:
• Stage 1 is directed by the Operations Department.
Incorrect. Tab 2 shows that Stage 1 is handled by Curation, not Operations.
• The final stage before an exhibition opens is overseen by the Administration Department.
Incorrect. Tab 2 indicates Stage 6 is managed by Operations, not Administration.
• Stage 3 generally requires at least 4 days to complete.
Incorrect. Tab 1 states that no stage can exceed 3 days, so Stage 3 cannot require 4 or more days.
• Stage 3, on average, requires the longest time to be completed.
Correct. Supported. From Tab 3, Stage 3 requires 5 days for Ancient Coins, 2 days for Modern Sculpture, 2 days for Medieval Tapestries, and 2 days for Impressionist Paintings. This totals 11 days across 4 exhibitions, or an average of about 2.75 days. Since this is longer than the averages for other stages, Stage 3 is the stage that, on average, requires the most time to complete.
• An exhibition that is discontinued always stops during Stage 2.
Incorrect. Tab 1 explains that discontinuation (Stage 0) can occur after any stage, not only Stage 2.
