Multiple Choice Question (MCQ) Tests
Zitat von lovewithdiamonds am 16 Oktober, 2006, 1322 UhrNow I know I'm not a stupid cookie, and I can bullshit my way quite efficiently through any regular test or exam....but the one thing I cannot do is multiple choice...
Those fuck me over - for my Bioethics test I got 42.5%, because, not only was it the dreaded MCQ format - but it was negative marking. For every wrong answer you get, the person marking the test subtracts marks.
Not cool - I should have aced that freaking test. I am gnerally an A symbol stusent - how on earth could i have got such a LOW mark??

hmmm .. I see .. tell me more .. how long have you been a A stusent ?
Negative marking is one of the lovely ways in which students get rewarded for not disturbing the class by sleeping ... I did not even see it coming.
Though break LoveWithDiamonds, I`m sure you will more than make up for it in tests to come.

Zitat von insidedistuo am 16 Oktober, 2006, 2105 Uhri'm sorry you did poorly on the test.. I am suprized you were not warned before hand it was a multiple choice.. those do seem to be the hardest...
and the reverse scoring is really a bitch.. 😥
most of my Cisco tests were multiple choice as well... Ugh....
I can give you a tip my professor gave me ... see if it helps..
on a 3 choice MCT...
one answer is totally bogus..
so the other two are pretty much the ones you have to worry about..
if something clicks in your brain on one answer go with it. don't go back on it..
my problem was always going back to rethink ...LOL..
I missed more questions by changing answers... 🙄
which REALLY pissed me off..
if you have another test like that.. try it and tell me if it helped...

Excuse me for not checking my spelling - I was busy doing a thousand other things - like learning for the test I had this morning. Which was not multiple choice...and which I am sure I nailed....
Exam period soon - time of no sleep, lots of stimulants (caffeine and nicotine) lots of stress....and being very very grumpy and very short-tempered...
final exams - then i have my degree....wow, these four years have gone by quick...

Zitat von navre am 20 Oktober, 2006, 1818 Uhrand four years from now when you look back you will wish you were still in school instead of being part of the world's daily grind. 🙂

Zitat von lovewithdiamonds am 21 Oktober, 2006, 0531 UhrNah - I'll probably still be studying...
Doing my Masters in Law next year, and from there....we'll see....
But I am putting off the working thing for as long as I possibly can.
I'm way too irresponsible to have a 9-5 job and deal with clients and their problems.
I mean, I can barely look after myself. I'm nowhere near being responsible enough for the whole career and motherhood and being a grown-up thing.

Zitat von maestro am 22 Oktober, 2006, 0951 UhrNo Kobayashi Maru for me either. Which is basically why i changed from my "0 or 1" subject to something more "discussable"

Zitat von lovewithdiamonds am 28 Oktober, 2006, 1345 UhrI have an innate ability to bullshit...I need to be able to make use of that in tests/exams....so i therefore hate MCQs - and apparently they're going to be in at least two of my exams. how the hell can it be a true reflection of testing the work we've done in the semester....?
so not cool.
very unimpressed.

Zitat von maestro am 29 Oktober, 2006, 1913 UhrWe seem to get those in "multimedia applications"

What do you need to manipulate graphics?
o Adobe Premiere
x Adobe Photoshop
o WinZip

Zitat von necromancerza am 31 Oktober, 2006, 1050 UhrI have recently had a look at a test sheet for forklift opperators.
All multiple questions .. all funny.Q: When should you speed with a forklift?
o When the manager is watching.
o When the manager is not watching?
x Never.This is a 2.5 ton piece of mobile machinery, I mean .. come on.
Should the questions not be a bit harder?
(I like forklifts .. reminds me of mecha 😀 )
