Protest session


How many questions do we feel will be protested?

Hard to tell until we actually sit and review the ones we got wrong. At least from what I remember, there was a good 3-4 that had all the choices wrong. Can we talk about questions yet ?

Dont discuss anything including PM. Could be people fishing for clues and questions

My protest session is scheduled for tomorrow. How many protest sessions did they schedule? Are they all tomorrow or do they extend into next week?

My protest is done. I could only find faults in 11 questions but did like the enthusiasm in the room. Lets see what comes of it. Subject matter was the same but questions were slightly different so essentially it was the same test for everyone.

How many do you guys think were legitimately throw outs or double answers?

 I gave 5 legitimate throwouts from the protest today. They were 100% throwouts. I submitted patrol guide procedures with them.

Wow that many? I shouldve gone to mine just out of curiosity what I got wrong but unfortunately couldnt make it. Seems like theres a handful of legitimately bad questions. Should be interesting to see how many get thrown out.

Do you get points for throw outs only if you got that question wrong or do they add points even if you got the throw out question right as per their answer key?

A few ways it can happen

-1,2, or even 3 different answers can be awarded the point (example: A was chosen by DCAS for test day, but B was proven to also be correct on review) (Example: A was chosen correct by DCAS on test day, but B&C were proven to be correct on review)

-If there is no possible correct answer, the entire thing gets thrown out and everyone gets the point (rare)

Note
-You cant get deducted the point if you got it correct originally and they decided to change it
-You dont personally have to go to the protest and protest the question in order to get the point back. If one person successfully submits a protest, it stands for all
-If you got it right, you got it right and thats it.. no extra points

Thats really terrible if you get point deducted for a messed up question they wrote and you got it correct as per their original answer key. On the other hand if you got it wrong you get rewarded with a point. No one should be loosing points.

Just for clarification, you CANNOT go down in points. If something is thrown out, everybody gets it automatically. If something is a double or triple answer, then whoever chose one of those gets the point. No one will get deducted a point.

Re reading those questions were insane! I was able to protest 6 questions on my end. 4 out of those 6 are highly throw aways.
