While sample questions 2 and 3 test the skill of recollection of knowledge, the outcomes of
both are different. Question 2, for instance, tests the recall of a trivial fact that does not have
any implication on conceptual understanding or a student’s ability to learn other concepts.
However question 3 tests the ability to recall of an important aspect of what an antibiotic does.
Also, the way the distractors are framed in sample question 3 can help in understanding
specific wrong notions students may have about antibiotics.
