Straighterline wrong answers ???

[pitbull30]

Im working through a SL course and I could swear there is some wrong grading. I started to think this a few tests back but didn't double check until now. Im a little over halfway through the entire course.

I took another quiz, but when I hit finish it said I missed X amount. So then when i went to the review I said to myself wait a second here and decided to check on a answer I for sure think is right.

So far I cant even find the term or word for this question in the chapter and the places I looked on the net I cant find any comparison either. Then i looked at another question and the same thing.

Now i feel like going through all the other wrong answers because I certainly dont want to waste all this time and money if there is flaws.


Has anyone else had this problem?

Yes, I had this problem. In fact I believe on the initial screen prior to taking the test it says that you will be able to review your answers, however after the test is taken and scored, you only see the wrong answer. I sent an email asking why this was represented this way. Obviously they don't want their questions and answers to be posted outside of SL, but I would like to know what the correct answer is, if in fact mine is wrong. Sometimes a question may have a "better" answer and by seeing all of the choices, I would actually be able to "learn". I never got response. For other questions that I knew were wrong, I sent email questioning - one that I recall was in Medical Term - cyano I believe meaning blue - not even given as a choice. Another was in biology where they wanted the bacteria that causes disease. Being that is my profession, medical lab tech, I knew it was 2 of the possible answers. They disagreed, however I sent an article from Journal of American Medical Association which proved my answer was in fact correct, along with some other literature. They changed my grade (not that it affected it), it was just the point. I have no idea if they changed the question bank.

Inevitably there are some wrong answers. If you find any that you think you have correct but you were graded incorrect please submit the possible error to us. Once our experts review the questions and answer they will adjust your score if you have the answer correct.
Thanks
