I actually got both grammer questions correct, yes the second one on luck.

All in all that is the perfect protest question, its a win for for everyone and a very big win with people like me who got a 69, it would actually mean 2 points cause the map would have to be thrown out as well, i hope there are others out there in my boat or people looking for 2 additional points cause here they are !!!

Im looking at the pink sheet. I believe it says that to attend a protest session we needed to mail in the request no later than 1 week after the test.

Everyone who chose the stadium for the mobilization pass or failed this test should be protesting the incorrect questioning of SOUTHERLY winds. The word southerly means the winds are blowing up from the south heading in a north direction, why would you put a mobilization into a park or anywhere else that the wind at 35mph will be blowing into you. This ridiculous wording to this question eliminates both answers and should be 100% thrown out.That question being thrown out gets everyone 2 additional points.All in all that is the perfect protest question, its a win for for everyone and a very big win with people like me who got a 69, it would actually mean 2 points cause the map would have to be thrown out as well,for those who got it correct you dont lose points you just keep it. I hope there are others out there in my boat or people looking for 2 additional points cause here they are !!!

The protest session has already started...everyone still has a chance, BUT YOU HAVE TO PROTEST QUESTIONS! You can't let others do the work for you. I did not sign up for the walk-in protest session, but YOU CAN STILL SUBMIT A PROTEST BY MAIL! Look at the back of your "candidate's record of answers", and it will tell you how to send it in through the mail. You have to send in your original protest, with three copies of it. There is an example of a sample protest letter on the discussion board already...use it as a resource tool. Good luck!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justification_%28typesetting%29

that was the format of #97

I'm not here to argue if it's a throw out or not. The above link is just info for those wondering why it was spaced the way it was. The actual body of the question was spaced using justified alignment and so were the answers. The reason why options A,B,D did not have any extra spaces was because justified alignment does not apply until something goes to a 2nd line.

If you don't know what I'm talking about, use your Word program and type some 1 and 2 line sentences using the justified alignment feature.

I don't know if it's actually considered grammatically correct.

Also, YES, I do know that wikipedia is NOT an official source of info. I got the question right. I'm putting this up for those that got the question wrong to use as a basis to start writing a good protest. You will have to find real sources that say that justified alignment is grammatically incorrect or it will not get thrown out.

That question is not going to be thrown out. When you write, not ever word is equally spaced.

Skiguy works for Dcas arguing our protest. If you noticed other 98 questions that had multiple sentences were written with regular format. Plus the word Alot used improper spacing as well why should one be better than the other:)

The point Scammer makes which you are all missing is this: Every one of you who picked the park quickly assume that because there was a concert IN THE STADIUM that was also overflowing meant that the parking lot must have had no room for the mobilization.

Scammer is right when he says that the test writers never told us how big the parking lot was and how much of the space was used or available. Since they were never specific enough, you cannot just make assumptions based on the fact that a concert was going on.

For all we know, the parking lot could have been so big that half of it was empty.

He is right and all of you who don't understand that are tree-hugging libs.
