Hijacking the thread because I do not think this deserves its own thread and it is related to test wording on the test we took in our state.

True or False:
Players removed from the game for displaying symptoms of a concussion shall not be permitted to return without authorization form from a health care professional. Rule 3-3-9.

I answered False, because authorization does not need to be in writing.
Use of the word "form" in the question, indicated to me that the authorization would have been written. I mean, how can you have a form and it not be written.

I got dinged on the test, because the answer was supposed to be True.

We had a study guide where many questions were illustrated with the correct answers that we reviewed in a local association meeting.

On the study guide the question was written like this:
"Players removed from the game for displaying symptoms of a concussion shall not be permitted to return without written authorization form from a health care professional. Rule 3-3-9."

The test admin removed the word "written" but neglected to remove the word "form".
