About

The MCQ is one of the objective assessment methods. It is proper to evaluate the cognitive domain of learners with high objectivity. However, there are no definite criteria for determining the appropriate exam time. The ability to comprehend the meaning of a text, when reading, cannot be directly applied to reading for decision-making or answering questions.
