Testing Formats

Neither. I believe that it should be multiple choice A, B, C, or D.

I like Nevadaref's idea as long as they don't have multilple questions in a question as in the casebook. Otherwise were not going to have 100 Q tests but 400 Q's

Ranjo - like you, I dislike the T/F questions and read too much into it.... confuses the heck out of me sometimes even though I know the situation and it's literally staring me in the face. Multiple choice might be nice. But, I'm sure they could make that confusing too...... No substitute for getting out there and doing it!

Yes/No and True/False are the same. If one set of options appeals more to you than the other, then you are definitely over-thinking the questions.

That's what I was thinking.

To those of you that may not have taken a test using both formats: Generally the True-False test asks questions about specific rules and the Yes-No format asks questions about specific situations and you must use your rules knowledge to come up with the answer. To me they are not the same.

But I do agree the better you know the rule book the less likely you are to be tripped up by one word in the True-False format.
