OPTIMAL GUESSING

No.12458674 ViewReplyOriginalReport
sup /sci/ I have a CM exam and it was a shit class that didn't teach me shit, and I know I'm going to get a shit grade on the exam. All I need is to barely pass it.
The questions are always so fucking bullshit and we were never prepared for any of the shit on there. they are fucking lazy as fuck.
So I'm going to guess the ones I can't answer.
I figure that if I know about 1/4 of the exam then there is 2/4th left
if I randomly guess it I would maybe get 1/4 of it right. that's only a 37.5%
But there is that goat shit. So if I guess one, then eliminate a few I should pick another one to increase my odds.
but also the odds that it's the same position as before. because the final is multiple choice.
So it's VERY unlikely that all of them will be correct if I just pick the first option, and it's very unlikely that it'll be the first option three times in a row.
and it's also unlikely it'll be, if there are 4-5 options. 12345, 12345, CONSECUTIVELY.
thus there must be an optimal path for answering questions in order to get extra points from guessing.
probability retards, I summon thee, please help me not fail phys 101
FUCK PHYSICS I JUST WANTED TO DO CS AND NOW I'M GOING TO SWITCH TO A FUCKING MATH MAJOR IF I DON'T PASS.
