the p is 1/4 because there can only be one correct answer out of 4 choices. No matter how hard I study, or how short is my sleeping time, there would not be 2 or 3 correct answers in one question.

WRONG concept…
p=0.25 if you only make wild guess (never study)
p0.25 if you study and decided to do better

for example, what is the probability of you answering this questions below correctly (without cheating) - there is only one correct answer…

Question A
1 + 1 =
a. 1
b. 2
c. 3
d. 4

Question B
What’s the value of Chandrasekar Limit?
a. (2/μe)2 · 2.85 · 10^29
b. (2/μe)2 · 2.85 · 10^30
c. (2/μe)2 · 2.85 · 10^31
d. none of the above

Assuming you have finished your primary education.
p for answering Question A should be very close to 1.0
(since you have studied it before)
ANS: B

Assuming all SMU students are science retard
p for answering Question B should be 0.25 (wild guess)
ANS: B

NRN

Eh but I’m not fooling you. The example given to me about the Binomial Distribution also talks about MCQ style tests. Really loh. [AL] err... no. in the equation... you imply that your failure is statistically unavoidable. Which is super duper WRONG (since p will be way above 0.25 if you study properly) So... kindly press alt-f4 or ctrl-alt-del followed by a series of enter button... (since you have conveniently disable Acer's built in auto-off feature) and study ^sylv^ the p is 1/4 because there can only be one correct answer out of 4 choices.

That kind of seemingly-complex-but-actually-simple calculation cannot fool me. In fact, you get your assumptions dead wrong since the second paragraph. Study more. ^sylv^ given the fact I got 4 out of 10, yeah I do think I need study more. Eh but I'm not fooling you.
