To add to my previous post about bad test questions

for example:  What is 2 + 2

obviously the answer is 4

 but wait

"for the question "what is 2 + 2" you answered 4, but the correct answer is 9"

so this gets reported to the CF rep in the forums and quite often the response is "reported, will not affect your accuracy"

but every so often the response is "Most contributors did fine in this job"

Now put on your thinking cap.  Think real hard.  I know you can do it.


Maybe reports of bad test questions should be taken a bit more seriously even though it appears that there are contributors doing fine in a specific job.  That is, if CF is TRULY concerned about bad data

And they are, right?  RIGHT?
