Multiple Choice Questions

When I read this question and answered, I was thinking of the multiple choice we get with autism questionnaires ie a statement is made and then you have to:

a.  Agree b.  Slightly agree. c. Slightly disagree. d. Disagree.

There should be an e. My brain just exploded.

This is the kind I hate.

However, I can do this kind:

What is a lemon?

a. Fruit b. Vegetable. c. Dog.

E always go with e

a.  Agree b.  Slightly agree. c. Slightly disagree. d. Disagree.

I can’t stand these options, I either agree or disagree. I find normal multi choice not too bad, two answers are normally very incorrect so they are dismissed, it then only leaves the correct one and a close contender. The driving theory test is very much this way but every answer is in The Highway Code. What I really struggle with on a test  is, “ now explain your answer”.  I can’t, its correct, I just know things, I’ve spent a whole lifetime learning useless facts, check it, it will be correct. “ yes but how did you arrive at your answer?”  Aghhh!
