Question regarding how the list number is effected by throwing out a question.


If a question is "thrown out" after a question is protested, how does that affect the score of the test taker? If the applicant got the question correct, do they lose the point? In other words, if an applicant got a question correct that is later thrown out, how does that effect their score?

if you originally got it right......nothing changes

What we all mean by throwouts is that all that answers in the question are correct therefore if you got it right the first time nothing changes but if you got it wrong you get that point

I'm sure there is a cop in your command that could explain to you this elaborate and complex answer to your question.

hb , thanks, some guy at command i work at, keeps telling me, that when they throw questions out, your score is now out of a less number, for instance, he says if they throw out 8 questions, the test is now out of 92 , but than the person that already for the question right is getting more than 1 point. I never heard of this before.
