I selected zero. The paragraph was grammatically incorrect but had no spelling errors... another DCAS trick ya question
An error in grammar can manifest itself in a spelling error. If I was to say "On Halloween all the ghouls came out, but oddly this year I saw no which." I have committed a spelling error by spelling witch; which. The question was not a trick question, instead it sought to garner whether (here weather would be a spelling error) or not the applicant had a full understanding of academic pettifogging.

They couldve gave the exam at the same time in multiple test sites ( Javits , Both Academys, MSG ). They didnt have to give the same exam both days. Then again they didnt want everyone to pass anyway.
Also, not sure if the people in my row had diarrhea but they kept going to the bathroom( like 3 or more times)

Same exact test, same exact question, u got half the candidate that have 24 hours window to just study the answers or the exact procedure that's leaked everywhere including identical question and answers from the day before.How is this different than the 2017 Lt test scandal where military people took it later and got way better score than the people took it day one. That was at most few hundred then, but we talking about thousands possibility 8000+ ppl all went in blind day 1, but day 2 went in knowing more than half or more of the answers on the test. This is a joke, do DCAS never saw this coming!? When they give two test on two separate days with same exact answer. It's like buying lotto when I know what's coming. Or they just don't care and do whatever they want? If there is a lawsuit before for people complaining have different test and it's unfair, I think this can be applied here just as much, having same test but on different day is just as unfair. You are creating this unfair test result and all the time and effort people put in gets a lower list number, die on this list, or even not making it just because they signed up and took it first. To simply put it, this is F**k Up.

Supposedly the questions were not all the exact same, some modifications were made but similar enough. Its completely unfair to day 1 test takers though because rumor has it that the info was leaked
