Lack Of Attention To Details ...

I've been taking the IAABO Refresher Exam (open book) for almost forty years, and I've never got 100% correct. Some problems are due to clerical or typographical errors in the creation of the test questions, or answer sheet, but most of my errors are not due to a lack of rules knowledge, but in my test taking skills, or lack of, i.e., not noticing a key word in the question that leads me down the wrong road so that afterward I say to myself, "Stupid BillyMac".

My goal every year is to get 100% correct. I'm not sure that I'll ever achieve it, in some cases due to poorly worded questions or wrong answer sheets, but in other cases due to my lack of attention to details.
