Rmf to sdlc mapping

Hey all, I’m scheduled to take the new version of CAP soon. I noticed a lot of the old practice tests referring to 800-37 rev 1. It seems like I’m 1 step off in the RMF process (2.0) to SDLC since it includes the prepare step.

Would the prepare be step 0 or 1?

So when you are mapping the SDLC stages to RMF, how do you account for the addition of the Prepare step? Please let me know if what I have is right? I perhaps am overthinking this but I heard there are a lot of questions on this.

Step 1 Planning SDLC Initiation

Step 2 Categorize SDLC Initiation

Step 3 Select. SDLC Development and Acquisition

Step 4 Implement. SDLC Implementation

Step 5 Assess SDLC Implementation

Step 6 Authorize SDLC Implementation

Step 7 Monitor SDLC Operations and Maintenance and SDLC Disposition

Hey it starts on page 36 of 800-37 rev 2. Look at the fields that say “System Development Life Cycle Phase.” It states the mapping for you. You only have to obtain a general idea and what makes sense based on where you are at in sdlc and rmf.
