Pattern based answers

While taking the cbest today, i usually think of random subjects to write about. It occured to me that if an almost perfect answer pattern were apparent on the scantron, basically its an answer sheet, than deviating from patterns would probably make some students a little paranoid about what their answrs should be.

Though throughout school there has always been the joke that you should always "answer C" as the most probable answer on a multiple choice test. Well what i devise is teachers should do in order to have superior test taking skills is to apparently make almost all the answer "follow a pattern"

What i mean by this is to have about 75% of the answers follow 2 shape patterns such as a "wave" pattern, column pattern, or even spelling pattern when they start to get answers right. Students know that patterns seem like an idiotic way to store answers on a scantron, but if they see it they might get a little bit worried.This way, students will be more psychologically prepared for an exam.

It will most certainly divide the ones who are truely smart and the ones who are dumb.
