probability experiment

Hi everyone.

I'm running an experiment about taking multiple choice tests. Essentially, I want to find the best way to take them (assuming you are completely unprepaired for the test). It'll take about 10-15 minutes of your time. Details and the test are here:

http://ratlab.dyndns.org/prob

Don't expect an analysis of the results any time soon because I'm still working on exactly how to go about it. I just wanted to start collecting data so that I have something to work with.

If you want to help me out or want to run your own analysis of the data, let me know and I'll see what I can do.

Thanks.

Re: probability experiment

You know it would probably only take about 10-20mins to get all the questions right?

What do you mean? If you're talking about looking them up, I'm recording the amount of time it takes someone to take the test. If they take too long, then I know to disregard it. If you mean refreshing to get more questions, you can't. It remembers the test it generates for you.

Re: probability experiment
