RE: How many passed?


How accurate is his answer key if we don't know which questions will or will not count ?

The only way to know for sure is by going to the protest session...his key for me was off by 5 points...gamblers key  It's calculated by a distinct formula which was accurate for most part... I believe every 12 questions he considers 2 wrong... protest session I saw as many as 3 being blacked out in a row...and that's why I had ended up gaining few more points...

Nothing thrown out in the 2014 Captain in basket, research questions were spread out in the test and there were a few in a row.  When u go to the protest you won't even see the questions or correct answer choice.  I'm "assuming" the research questions were questions from prior exams to see if the question was challenging enough to be used on future exams without the help of our department writing all new questions, but that's just a guess.  Who knows.  These schools make a lot of money and their format and questions rarely change.  With the testable material so vast on our job it was too easy for them to go left field.  I feel bad for my guys they are bummed out, but I tell them just wait and see.  If u guys go to the 2011 forum we were in the same disgruntled upset boat.
