The other types of multiple-choice questions that you may encounter include:
•Multiple choice, multiple answer: These questions require you to choose multiple correct answers. For example, a question may ask you to choose all of the answers that correctly apply to a situation. Because you must choose every correct option in order for these types of questions to be scored correctly, these questions are extremely difficult to guess at.
•Multiple choice, best answer: These questions are relatively rare on Microsoft certification exams. You will only encounter these types of questions on Pro level exams. With a normal multiple-choice question, there is only one correct answer. With a best answer question, however, there may be several potentially correct answers but you must choose the answer that is the most correct. Microsoft defines the most correct answer as the one that would require the least effort and least expense to implement while also achieving the desired outcome and adhering to Microsoft's best practices. Keep in mind that the best answer questions are situation-specific. You must choose the option that is the best fit for the situation described, even if the solution is not necessarily the best option for every situation.
•Multiple choice, repeated scenario: These questions are commonly referred to as case study questions. These questions tend to appear mostly on Pro level exams. The basic idea is that the exam will provide you with a long and detailed scenario (typically a case study) and then ask a series of multiple choice questions that are all based on that scenario. From a statistical guessing standpoint, repeated scenario questions can be treated the same as regular multiple choice questions.
•Multiple choice, extended matching: These questions are relatively new to Microsoft certification exams, but they have been used on medical licensure exams for years. These questions are similar to repeated scenario questions in that there is a series of questions that are all based around a common scenario. What makes these questions different is that the list of possible answers is extended. Rather than allowing you to choose from four possible answers, an extended matching question might present ten possible answers. The same list of possible answers is presented for each question in the series. Some answers might be correct for more than one question, while other answers might not be correct for any of the questions.
