[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reading this on the PARCC made my head spin.

I would have gotten that question wrong.

You would have gotten that question wrong? Seriously? I’m not saying questions aren’t over complicated, but my takeaway was that the article writer was an idiot if he would have just checked E and moved on.[/quote]

Yes. I haven't taken a test in some years and made the same mistake ad the author. Judge away, [b]I did pass AP calculus once upon a time 25 years ago. But sure, I'm an idiot too[/b].[/quote]

It sounds like your teacher taught to the test, and you never learned basic concepts.[/quote]

Well no, the actual conclusion here is that the PP was NOT taught to the test.

Understanding concepts, but still getting the question wrong due to missing a word/reading quickly/a multi choice answer that has 3 correct answers and you get it wrong because you select one of the three = not being taught to the test, being out of practice taking tests.[/quote]
