Ok. The rules:
Don't guess -- you will be penalized for wrong answers! Here's how it works:
- all questions are weighted equally
- a correct answer is worth two points
- an incorrect answer will cost you one point
- skipping a question will not change your score
- there are 40 questions
What this all means is that if you can narrow the choices down to two possibilities, you should guess. But if you can't eliminate at least two choices, then you will do better to skip the question.
This is the fairest way I could think of to do this. You will not be rewarded by chance for blind guessing; if, however, you almost know the answer, and can narrow the choices down to two, then the law of averages will eventually work out in your favor. This is my method of giving partial credit. :)
