Popular Answer Key

How accurate do you think it is? They said for the last exam it got 39/40 correct. Of course that exam was much easier.

Unfortunately for me, #2 & #38 seem wrong. Hopefully 2 more are wrong in my favor. A couple of properly placed thrown out questions (which we'll never know) are in order as well. I am now reduced to begging.

[Bama Gambler]

Ok so there are some arguments for 2 and 38 being wrong. Any others?

It only had 69 responses when I checked it, and about half of the questions had 2 or more answers that were somewhat popular. I think with more responses it will get more accurate, but hopefully I won't have to know stuff like that in November.

When rogerlee was doing it a couple of years ago, it was around 36 or 37 out of 40.

What do you mean 39/40? that whatever was the popular answer was correct for 39/40? i mean whne im checking against that im being ultra conservative...questions that have a breakout that is pretty even between say a and b like 28 to 26 ..im not giving myself credit for even if i have choice a...

there are like 78 responses now..so people seem to be populating it

Yes, since the exam was released last November, it was possible to grade the popular answer key.

Consider, my friend, that the mark was 26 last sitting. Thus, there shouldn't be nearly the random fluctuation that this sitting has. However, there may be more people submitting this time, which may offset that. #27 and #32 seem to have 2 equal responses. Obviously, I would love to know the content of these questions.

Somebody wrote earlier that it was 37/40 and 39/40 for courses 3 & 4 (not sure which) last sitting.

I'm at 21 on the popular answer key. Looks like a 5 for me!!!

Still, that's about how well I thought I did coming out of the exam. Going in, I thought a 30, no problem.

I'm not positive, but as far as I remember, in November the answer that was most popular (including ones that were not MAJORITY, like 25 had A and 22 had B 10 had C 10 had D and 8 had E, A would be considered most popular), were correct for 37 of the 40 Course 4 answers, and 39 out of 40 for course 3. So at least last time it was a pretty good indicator. Of course use results with discretion, as I'm ceratinly making no claim as to their accuracy this time.
