How many throw out do you think there will be?


Keep in mind last captains test had 7 questions with four answers and 8 questions with double answers.

Only looking for number with four(4)answers.....

No clue. I think they'll be a few more doubles. #100, "between", and possibly the uniform appearance question if they accept the argument, (maybe mv104s question--if biohazard placard was in fact displayed.)  And **** we haven't though of--#4?

from reviewing the spread sheet on excel posted a week ago ... i would guess 5 bad questions and 8-10 double answers.

 

the answers provided by everyone tell the story... there is no way for it to be split between 3 or 4 answers unless the question was poorly written.

what is the MAX amount of toss out questions can there be before they have to scrap the test? Is that even an option?

I think the throw outs will be determined by the amount of people "they" want on the list. If the powers that be want a 600 or 800 person list, they will throw out the appropriate amount of questions. Just my opinion having taken a few department tests.
