a. Which question/s is/are the easiest?
The easiest questions are items number 2, 3 and 6.
b. Which question/s is/are the most difficult?
There are only slightly difficult questions and they are items number 1,4,5,7,8,9, and 10
c. Which item/s has/have the poorest discrimination?
The questions with the poorest discrimination are items number 2, 3 and 9.
d. Which question will you eliminate first? Why?
The Question that I will eliminate first is item number 9. The p-value is difficult since only 1 from the upper 50% has got the correct answer.
But its unbelievable that 3 students from the lower 50%has got it. Then in the index of discrimination, it has a -0.4 which evidently says the
analysis is poor.
