Quote from the book:
Monkeys Take the TOEFL
What most students don’t realize is that to insure that 20-25% chance, you have to guess randomly. If you put 20 monkeys in a room to take the TOEFL, assuming they answered once per question and behaved themselves, on average they would get 20-25% of the questions correct. Put 20 students in the room, and the average will be much lower among guessed questions. Why?
- TOEFL intentionally writes deceptive answer choices that “look” right. A student has no idea about a question, so picks the “best looking” answer, which is often wrong. The monkey has no idea what looks good and what doesn’t, so will consistently be lucky about 20-25% of the time.
- Students will eliminate answer choices from the guessing pool based on a hunch or intuition. Simple but correct answers often get excluded, leaving a 0% chance of being correct. The monkey has no clue, and often gets lucky with the best choice.
This is why the process of elimination endorsed by most test courses is flawed and detrimental to your performance- students don’t guess, they make an ignorant stab in the dark that is usually worse than random.
