Fdx- FOM test
 
Annual training coming up. Usually I print out the FOM question bank and work through the multiple choice questions to prepare for the test.

This year, the question bank has no multiple choice answers - just the questions. The actual online LMS test questions are multiple choice and display possible answers.

Do I need to do something special to display the multiple choice answers on the question bank or am I SOL?

FOM Test is now part of LMS - No test during Sim brief.

I understand the test is part of LMS (hence my reference to it in my question). Rather than just get the answers to the 20 questions on the random test I take, I preferred to answer them all just to try to study up on the FOM a little.

What I don't understand is why the LMS questions are multiple choice but the question bank those LMS questions are drawn from has no multiple choice answers displayed (unlike previous years). All the questions in the bank even end with a colon: as if there should be a list of potential multiple choice answers to follow.

My questions are:
Is there a list of possible answers available by some method I'm unaware of?
If not, is this an oversight by the training department or do they just not provide the multiple choice answers any longer?

Just take the test enough times until you pass.... I try selecting C for all answers and see if I pass....

Short answer, I think you are SOL. I think I heard they did it this way to get us back in the book.

If you downloaded and saved the list from previous year(s), I think you will find the majority of the questions (with answers) are the same. You'll just have to compare them to the current FOM (also a good 'back in books' exercise).

You can also open the FOM pdf, and use the search function while taking the test.

Just took the test cold, 20Qs, missed one, went back retook test, it gave me all the same Qs maked green for correct and red for incorrect. It let me change the one I missed, which was a T - F. :) Took all of 10mins.

Does that 95 go onto your permanent record?
