Question

Which of the following is not a factor to be considered in the preparation of an achievement test

• A. Weightage to objectives
• B. Weightage to content
• C. Weightage to difficulty level
• D. Weightage to students interest

Answer 1

Answer:

D. Weightage to students interest

In the preparation of an achievement test, the important factors to be considered include:

• Weightage to objectives (what is to be tested)

• Weightage to content (the subject matter and topics covered)

• Weightage to difficulty level (level of question difficulty for a balanced test)

However, weightage to students' interest is not a factor for achievement test preparation because achievement tests are designed to measure what students have learned according to the curriculum and instructional objectives, not based on their personal interests.
