Questioning techniques

  • Select one or more responses that best complete the statement or answer the question. Distractors, or incorrect answers, are response options that an examinee with incomplete know ledge or skill would likely choose. However, they are generally plausible responses that fit in the content area defined by the test objective.
  • Unanswered questions are scored as incorrect; there is no penalty for guessing.
  • Unscored content
    • Your examination may include unscored items that are placed on the test to gather statistical information. These items are not identified on the form and do not affect your score.
