Examples of ambiguous T/F questions from the NF exam
Hi guys,
Just wondering if I could get some help here...can anyone provide examples from past NF basketball exams of true/false questions that was considered poorly worded and/or ambiguous? Of course, "poorly worded" and "ambiguous" may be subjective, but our association has had some pretty interesting discussions on certain questions over the years, so I would imagine that there are other officials that may have felt the same way as our guys might have. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Fred Byon |

T/F: This statement is False.

I had one that annoyed me to no end --
Basically it had to do with the score being final and the game over when the official (singular) has left the visual confines of the court. It should've been plural and probably included the word "all" officials... because while that statement could be true, it could also be false depending on the 2nd/3rd official. |

As you also know, nobody is supposed to get 100% on the test; errors are supposed to spark further study of the rules. So poorly worded questions are to be expected as a means to an end. |

This was probably the easiest question in the history of the test.

Of course, maybe that's what makes it fit the thread. |
