%X Using Excel or any form of spreadsheet for project scheduling is a convenient approach. The approach is dynamic compared to traditionally manual computations. It is also less complicated and mechanistic and rather straightforward compared to advanced programming languages. This paper intends to investigate numerous implementations of spreadsheet modeling ever worked and resulted for generalized critical path method. The approaches produced have significantly contributed to the advancements of teaching and learning and computerized applications in management science and industrial engineering. The approaches are comprehensively discussed, the advantages of respective approaches are thoroughly reviewed, their limitations are carefully addressed, and significant findings from the approaches presented are evidently derived. Key words: Critical path method; Spreadsheet modeling; Project scheduling; Operations research; Management science; Quantitative method; Industrial engineering
